he is though. You see what's happening in the Ukraine!? he never wants to go back. that's why he is frothing at the mouth every game. Plus the way Morey stock piles PGs he is a trade away from a coach ticket to Asia.
not to attack COd, but he does have a LOF as insidous people. I mean that 's a bit strong. They can be annoying, but they are mostly from china. So, anyway, some people will never warm up to Lin no matter how many points he scores. just the way the cookie crumbles
You must be glad he's "only" making $5 million this year then? I just average it out to $8.3 per year for the Rockets. $15 million for any other team next year though.
That's called fanaticism 101. Being a fan is to accept the fact that he had a bad game and has flaws, but not emotionally criticize the one your support as "selfish". I'm sure that guy is a rox fan, but I doubt if he is a Lin fan. To the max., he is a fanatic who only wants to see heroes, and turn into a hater when the one he supports is no heroic. A fan who gets frustrated and turned emotionally critical if his support is a human who makes mistakes, is a fanatic.
It's fate. PF is our weakest position and we have to face the best PF in the game in the first round. PG is our second weakest position and we have to face a top 5 PG in the league. Guarding the pick and roll (especially the 1-4) is our biggest problem defensively and we have to face the best 1-4 PnR duo. I don't think Griffin is a good enough screener or popper like Aldridge to say the Clippers are better. Batum is not a chump, so he and Chandler cancel each other out. Dwight will have to step up his game. It was very close last game. Pretty much a playoff game since they were fighting for the tie breaker/HCA and we barely won in OT.
The Rockets lose tomorrow and they're in big trouble. This is the easiest game coming up in this 4 game stretch that ends in Charlotte next week. The good news is the Jazz have to play tonight in San Antonio, so even if the Rockets are tired tomorrow night, Utah will be as well.

The inconsistency of the team as a whole has 1 main cause. Bad coaching.. Mchale gives no tips or advice to any of the guys out there. On wired close ups what does he say? Go after the rebounds, defend guys, come on ..... There's no strategic or non-vague coaching at all. He's just a horrible coach that will hinder this team as he remains so. This team has major talent but not a decent enough coach to critique...
Funny, I think it was you who I responded days ago that it's just all in your head imagining. On a different topic, still caught my attention :grin:
No way. Harden did an excellent job on Wade defensively. Maybe he takes twitter challenges seriously. Wade would have attacked Lin and drew fouls on him. The one time we saw it, Wade quickly attacked Lin and drew a phantom foul. That's why you don't do it to begin with. The last thing we needed was him to get it going from the line.
Tjones & dmo looked good tonight, I like the progress I'm not really trippen on a L to the heat On the road, we showed good effort and went 1-1 vs them this year. The bulls game is still the disappointment on this 0-3 streak
Eat ****. It's what happened. I didn't say anything bad about Lin and I used evidence. from the game. Lin fans are babies if they think I am calling out Lin or blaming him for the loss. You don't play Lin out of position against a top 2 SG in the NBA.
Blame Morey, I actually wish him for not giving such a poisonous contract, so it's easier to part and trade. Why the heck did Morey give this kind of contract anyways...
I agree. McHale only trusts his starters. Sometimes he pulls Lin or D-Mo out too quickly for making a bad play. Garcia DEFINITELY should have played today. I don't know why you don't put him in after his showing the other night. His threes would have definitely helped us in the fourth.
