    Dwight always destroys Asik. This is where you put GREG ****ING SMITH on Dwight!

    The Roxx needs to be careful in this game. Nash is still a great player and he will try to slow down the game so just hope the Roxx have a good game.

    wow, watching him play still resembles his style today but he seems a lot more hunkered down and poised now. he def bulked up too. he seemed so raw...exciting to see him grow with the Rockets

    Really bad. On one play, it was a 2 on 0 lol. We better expose this.

    Damn, didn't know that. I guess I really don't know much about Lin after all.

    yeah, we've been playing a lot of a half cour style the past couple of games. it's actually gotten a lot better and it's good to develop a strong half court game but we need to get our 'run and gun' style back before we become too complacent with playing at the opposition's pace.

    trap game if we play a half court game like they want. blowout if we run and gun.

    Are we going to say this for every single game we play?

    maybe, esp f they don't start to implement the run and gun style consistantly. look how close the NOH and CLE when they shouldn't have been. we were blowing out teams like chicago, memphis, and new york pre-christmas when we were playing fast....no so much so as of late since we've let the other team force us into half court games.

    Part of a young team's problem is that they tend to play at the level of what they think the opposition is at. if they played with energy like they were playing the Spurs every game then I'd be a it more confident.

    nonetheless, i'm excited to see them grow

    Yes. And every single game someone would eat Lin alive :(

    And every single same Durant would go off on us :grin:

    If we can get some real linsanity performances even remotely close to the SA game, or hell i'll even take a performance from the cleveland game. if he can start to do that consistently and not turn the ball over 6+ times a gam no one here will complain about lin.
