    You're hating on him, just keep it real. Not a big deal. I used to hate on AB

    Stickum grip powder. Or just fix the problem altogether by giving Greg Smithg 5-7 of Asik's minutes.

    Not hating at all, just telling it like it is.

    Tell me one positive thing I should be saying about Lin's game? At least he showed up?

    Since Lowry's turned ankle, I think Calderon has been running the offense better than Lowry. Teammates get and take better quality shots when Calderon is at point, even though Lowry is the better individual player.

    Harden is keeping the Rockets in the game by getting to the line even though he is not shooting well.

    I agree, even those Morris is having a good game, 2pat is a valuable spacing player whether he starts or comes off the bench. We need them both.

    I couldn't care less whether you are hating or not, I'm calling it like it is. He gets benched regardless of his production, so that's that.

    But we need to figure out what we are trying to achieve long termly, let Lin plays it out, or bench him for a backup who's probably not in the long term plan.

    I don't give a flying f about 1 game nor a so called in winning season but failed to make the playoffs. I'd rather we tank and start all the rookies.

    Sorry Toronto, it doesn't matter how many good things you say about Terrence Ross, it still doesn't turn him into Andre Drummond.

    Rough start by Lin. Hope he picks it up in the 2nd half.

    Dip****s like you show up when Lin has a bad quarter, and then shutup when he plays well. Don't even pretend to be impartial. Where were you in the Boston game *******?

    There's nothing positive to say about his game. But you do hate him, right? I just wish you'd tone it down a little that's all.

    if he could not be adjusted after half time, I guess not today......

    Unless they separate him from Asik, if he don't attack himself, and Asik is cold, Ppat is not there, don't see what he can do.

    Chemistry is not there yet, you might as well iso....

    Asik and Lin are completely useless tonight, especially Lin. Sitting in the corner is not going to get anything going. He needs to start running a la Hamilton and throw the defense off. With him just sitting in the corner thats just one less man to worry about.

    The whole team is standing around when Harden has the ball. Why has McHale asked them to move the ball and move around?
