Fire the Fail

 

Been saying this forever. Mchale hates Lin. That's why they always bench him in the 4th. Most of the time, it backfires w/ a loss. They won once when Lin sat out in the 4th, and that was w/ the bobcats.

 

I seriously doubt it. I seriously doubt they'd be better at all.

The Martin you see in OKC is not the one you'd get here. He'd get no screens or off ball movement so his strength would not be here and instead of getting Harden Iso's we'd get Parsons and Lin Isos which would have been far worse.

 

Lin is playing good today, I don't understand benching him in this game what-so-ever.

 

At least JLin got some rest in a unwinnable game.

 

Finally James The "no beard" Anderson in the house.

 

welcome onboard!

 

Patterson Only got 1 REBOUND

 

Serious question: was Denver doing something that forced us to play differently in the second half?! I can't imagine Mchale going away from what worked in the first half unless Den took it away from us.

 

Everyone bore witness... all you need is a bunch of role players who hustle, play D, can set screens, and can shoot with Lin and you win games.

 

Well someone better tell Westbrook who the man is then.

 

We're gonna have another Lowry/Martin situation happening soon. Book it.

10 is average

 

That's true, though the game was winnable until McHale benched him...

 

Patterson got shafted even worse than Lin. 10 points in 15 mins??

 

It's a shame we'll never know will we?

 

Hornets gonna smoke this team tomorrow

 

Lin is not a star in HOU, it makes Taiwan people find out Lin is an American.

 

You're right, he should. One of the.problems is, he, and pretty much everyone else on the floor that doesn't have the ball ( yeah, generally everyone other than harden ) is spotted up behind the arc. You don't even have to close on him aggressively, just sit back and guard for the drive. Not many pnr's to be had for him. Yeah, he can get past a defender 1 on 1. Most players can. But its still going to most likely be a low percentage shot. Everything is made more difficult

 

Lol yeah right, we were barely .500 last year WITH Kyle Lowry, Goran Dragic, and Louis Scola. NO ONE on this team outside of Harden is as good as those three players.
