    Dude seriously? Were you even watching the game? He only played long enough to do this:

    Awesome pass to asik where he had a point blank dunk but missed.

    Drives in and misses a tough shot he used to make.

    Turns it over.

    That doesn't = losing the game.

    yea, I was shocked when Lin didn't come back. His toughness is legendary. He even played through a torn meniscus last year (which probably led to a longer recovery into this year).

    Talking about losing seriously you can blame anyone

    You can blame Harden losing the game for throwing up stupid alleys to Asik
    You can blame Asik for having butter fingers
    You can blame Parsons for killing the momentum for going for a layup while up
    Etc

    At the end of the day it was PERKINS fault

    If Lin doesn't play it just means that he can't play....we're talking about a player that never missed a single game this season, even with multiple ankle tweeks so he's already shown his toughness.

    Jeremy missed practice today so it will be a game time decision. Probably receiving treatment during practice.

    Any more news about whether he'll be good to go?

    For some reason I thought this post would end differently.

    I think he will be able to play.
    Maybe off the bench and limited in play time.

    If Lin cant go I dont really like our chances too much. Bev played great in game 2 but I'm just not sure if he would be able to repeat that performance now that the Thunder will focus heavily on him. I just think we need another attacker and penetrator to fully take advantage of westbrook not playing

    AB made a great pass to Asik, who got stonewalled by Ibaka, and the Smith turnover was just a miscommunication. It happens...

    Wasn't expecting that ending...lol

    however during our 21-2 run harden, parsons, and delfino EACH missed wide open 3's. That would've changed the whole complexion of the game and instead of the 4 point lead, we would have had a 13 point lead. That is where I lie blame here IMO

    Well, we did give Brook $2.4 million. Light it up.

    We can win without Lin and the Thunder will not focus heavily on Bev after one good Playoff game. Where do you people come up with this stuff?

    I agree that this team can still compete without Lin, but I sort of disagree with your statement that the Thunder will not focus heavily on Bev. They might not "focus heavily" on him, but I'm sure they are game planning for him now that the cat is out if the bag. That's what good teams do.

    Seriously king1 u must have some serious obsession with lin. If u got something nice to say about bev just say it without mentioning lin cause its becoming a one trick pony for u. Weather he is doing good or bad.

    Anyway as good as bev is going he can't play a fullgame wihtout resting.

    We are both down a starting point guard.
