Its impressive how quickly you posted that. You must have that saved in the favorites menu, either that or the Fap material folder. Why do you relish a rockets player making a bad play ? Edit .. yes i mean bad like that. Interestingly enough it was one those plays that theoretically isn't that awful. Sure its definitely not favorable to the game situation, but its a high percentage look that if he makes basically ensures we win.
That was his biggest moment as a Rocket. Playoffs, everybody watching nationally. You don't remember? Don't blame me I didn't sink the Rockets that series. You mean 'bad PLAYS' with an S.
Atkinson is one tolerant coach. I'd call that airball trying to "do too much". I'm so happy with Jeremy Lin right now. My joy runeth over.
You dont think playing TJones on LA was a bigger impediment to winning the series ? Also Beverley was ill that series and was not effective at all. Lin also had a good game or two that series . Harden had some equally damaging games considering he was expeted to pull a much bigger load.
I don't blame Linda for not grabbing the second rebound because wes Matthews freaking scissored him and tripped him up and grabbed him, but the first one was straight up dumb as ****
What does Harden have to do with Lin? One is an All star and MVP candidate, and one is a bench player for the Nets.
Then why did we get rid of Lin instead of Beverly or Harden? You don't have to be a NBA GM to figure this one out.
We Traded him to Open Up cap space to try and land Bosh. For someone that seems intent to dwell on historical actions of Jeremy Lin , you dont seem to remember things that well.
Oh that's right, we got rid of him cause he was so damn important to the Rockets! That's why we had to GIVE THE LAKERS A DRAFT PICK just to get him off our hands. If he was so damn awesome, we had several chances to get him back, why didn't we ?
LOL thanks Jeremy. Somethings never change. He is what he is an solid piece nothing more nothing less
All I gotta say is, I hope you can get over this. It seems like you are really holding on to this hatred and notion that you are right. I also think you might want to read my statements more carefully. I truly believe that you love the rockets so as someone else who loves them as well i gotta say this ( and not in jest) you ought to let it go. Whatever narrative you think occurred here with Lin is full of misguided assumptions and paranoia. There were posters on this board who over-rated the guy. And there were posters who under-rated him. The truth of what he is and was becomes clearer as time moves on. And it is becoming clearer that you are holding onto some feeling that should be let go. Enjoy the rockets as they are now and treat Lin for what he is . Just another ex rocket. And there are alot of those
Would Lin be a good pick up in a trade to come off the bench? Brewer or Mcdaniels, 2nd rounder for Lin?
I'm the one enjoying this victory, apparently you are one showing sympathy for an Ex-Rocket that did NOTHING for the the Rockets. who do you think did more of the ex-Rockets on that team? Scola or Lin? I'm going to say Scola did way more than Lin as a Rocket.
Prolly wouldnt. Unless of course we sustain an injury to guard. I like our guard rotation now and we need a 2-3 more than we need a 1-2. That being said he would be nice in this system, but i just dont see the need as we have 3 guards already playing at a high level.
Of course Scola. I'm not showing sympathy, I'm trying to correct your recollection of how he played while here. Regardless of if he's on the team or not, as someone who loves history, it pains me to see the narrative twisted so badly.
Ex Rockets that actually did more than Lin, that's way too many to name, but I'll give you ones of note Cassell, Horry, Francis, Mobley, Dwight Howard (yes), and Tracy McGrady (even his first round exits were more special than anything Lin did for the Rockets)
You are the one getting the narrative wrong. He sucked majorly with the Rockets go ahead a re-read some of these threads (I didn't even start them) here's one Jeremy Lin better not get on the team bus... http://bbs.clutchfans.net/index.php?threads/jeremy-lin-better-not-get-on-the-team-bus.253680/
