    Lin's always shown emotion on the court. Remember him lying on the floor, yawping in triumph after he crossed over Metta World Peace and got an And1?

    But he's never really gone after the refs before. If he doesn't do this too much, maybe the refs will start to give him more respect.

    I LOVE his stare down at the OKC bench while chucking up the H-town hand sign, he did it so calmly and it was just....I LOVE THIS MAN

    now that you mention it, it might be the 3 point hand sign, either way, it's still awesome

    Clyde called it. The Thunder have a tendency to take their feet off the pedal after building up a lead in the 4th. Usually it works cause most teams have given up already or Durant/Westbrook will make some big play that'll kill any semblance of a comeback. Too bad this time they ran into a team with tons of heart who doesn't give up until the very last second.

    Great victory. And the fact that it was a comeback fueled by James (and Jeremy) just made it sweeter.

    You would find a reason to b**** if the Rockets won game 7 of the NBA finals if Lin wasn't the undisputed hero.

    It's just one guy's opinion piece, and he's basing it on statistics which occurred playing for the franchise where prospects go to die.

    Robinson is a 21 year old rookie, give him time

    The rockets have no real force down low....they needed to do something and it seems to me they didnt give up much PLUS they got a young guy with a big side...

    I understand the move.....hopefully it will work out

    just notice something from yesterday's game

    the last two minute of the game, why didn't McHale put Asik in for the defensive rebound? :confused:

    not knocking on greg smith but he allowed them to get that offensive rebound off of Durant's missed FT. If Durant made the 3 to tie the game, i'm sure most of us would be furious at McHale for not putting asik in.

    i thought he learned from his mistakes? :confused:

    He was probably afraid of Asik grabbing the board and getting fouled right away. Granted, Smith is only a marginal improvement in that department.

    Hey, this is completely random, but I've always wondered how to do a "spoiler" button on a post, like you have in your signature. Do you mind telling me how to do it?

    (spoiler) text, pics, code, etc.... (/spoiler)

    instead of parenthesis put these [] []

    would be nice if we have a spoiler button the message reply section but you have to type it out
