    I feel like Lin needs to learn to play with a chip on his shoulder too. He plays too passive on a team with few legit scoring options behind him and Harden. I understand he's made his money and isn't necessarily the "underdog" anymore, but neither are tons of other players who play with a chip on their shoulder night in and night out. He's got to go out there and find a way to get his no matter what. Your shot not falling? Drive the lane and find the open man or draw some contact and get to the line. I understand there are probably some medical issues still lingering but if that's the case then he doesn't need to be out there.

    Knicks have the best record in the NBA. It would be awesome if Lin could find some magic tonight and lead the Rockets to victory. Probably won't happen, but it would be fun.

    It feels good to see so many people here in the GARM want Lin to succeed. The kid has good heart works very hard and has been fighting to have an NBA career despite his natural disadvantage of athleticism. As a big Lin supporter, I really hope he can build a solid career in Houston as Lin himself said this organization is nothing but friendly and supporting him.

    Damn annoying Ho Chen asking same dumb questions over and over. Lin wasn't a Rocket last year why'd it make any difference to Rockets fans?

    I hope Lin has a good game. I don't ever see him being a star but I think he can be solid. Slightly better numbers than he is posting now (much better shooting) is about his peak.

    Ho Chan is an idiot.
    CSN should hire a woman, not a guy.

    Either we're gonna play awful and get blown out... or Linsanity happens and it's a close game. I'm leaning towards the former.

    Can we get tinman around here?

    Rocket fans don't give a ____ about what made Linsanity special.

    In fact.... This dude ruined our Knicks pick :mad:

    In the beginning I hated him reading those stupid tweets . But I'm kinda OK with him now. Maybe just got used to it, lol

    You have to admit, he is relentless despite so many people calling for his head. You got to love and admire his thick skin though, LOL

    Drexler on Kidd: "He's 6'4...He can almost play small foward"

    LOL

    I didn't think much about this NY game when the schedule was announced, but now that it's here, it seems so much more significant than I expected. Not just for Lin and Douglas, but for the whole team. Let's hope for a well played high scoring game. Go Rockets!
