    Parsons is so much better than Cisco? Goodness Cisco is awful defensively & is not as good of a passer & rebounder as Chandler.

    Coach should rest Harden as well. Suns are probably not trying to win, so Lin/Asik + 2nd unit should handle the win comfortably like that Orlando game.

    No problem, we got loads of guys that could backup the SF spot.

    Anderson, Garcia, Delfino (?)

    Let's see if we are a better team without Parsons. ;)

    There's definitely more to all these "injuries" than meets the eye. So far Harden, Delfino, and Parsons have all been out for multiple games over the last two weeks. Once we clinch, I wouldn't be surprised if Asik comes down with something.

    I'd rather have any of those 3 out than Lin or Asik out.

    I don't believe he is injured, prob just resting which is good.

    All these resting makes me really think that Lin should rest.

    This guy haven't missed a single game. Either his conditioning is extremely good or he will break soon...

    It's a very beneficial experience for Lin to play through an entire season. This way, he'll know exactly what it takes endurance-wise. His last season with the Knicks was cut short at 25 games due to injury (and the fact that he didn't become a starter until Februrary).

    Yes, food poisoning led to that right calf strain. Obviously.

    I don't know if you're being sarcastic or not, but there's a good chance that food poisoning led to the calf strain because Chandler was dehydrated from the food poisoning.
