    I think tinman is definitely very underappreciated. I have visited this site a lot - definitely more than I should, I confess. Seems a good number of people have made a lot of posts that I've read. Still, I honestly can only name like 5 posters' usernames, and tinman's is one. I like him a lot, because he continually reminds me of why I started coming here. You know, 20 years ago, people did not just visit this site because they were scared of sunlight. In my case, I went to school away from Houston. League Pass wasn't around, so I came here to keep in touch with the team. Houstonians like me were infected with the heroics of those Championship teams, and those one star nostalgia threads that tinman posts remind me of that. If there was a Hall of Fame for fans, tinman would be first ballot.

    We're the same brother.
    Clutch united us and people who joined loved the Houston Rockets only.
    Les may have left the Houston part off but we haven't

    I agree for the most part. Loyal Rox fan that is a great conduit for the pre-2000 glory days but the dude has gotten cranky in his old age.

    There's just more evil now than back then.

    You are going to get flamed my man.

    Though Houston's Del Harris said on the ESPN NBA page the Modern NBA Game is tailor made for Yi.

    I'm still curious about what his contract looks like because it can't be for the min. because you can't add incentives on to a minimum contract.

    Geez, you think stating actual facts and numbers are emotion and writing about chickens, stinky tofu, husband and wife lung pieces shows you are cultured.

    Out of your 7 posts in this thread, only one had a number. Unfortunately it seems to be a number that you just made up and has a high probability of being completely false. (unless you can source, then please do)


    tinman's posts are rife with stats and (real) numbers with actual significance and source. Incredibly easy to find them One Two Three Four Five Six

    Dude, I dont care much about Yi Jianlian. The guy never played for the Rockets. Only Tinman cares about non-Rockets or non ex-Rockets to the extent of digging up his numbers.

    Holy crap why is this thread so active? You guys really debating Yi Jianlian? Or is it another tinman vs asians since the Lin thread seems to have died down?

    We should not talk about Yi so much and heck why are we turning this into a LOF discussion?

    Get a grip.

    You just did not get the manual how to do a good exorcism.

    Start with yourself.

    Why is Tinman obsessed with Lin and has to pollute every thread talking about Lin? It's getting annoying

    Pretty sure tinman loves Yao, like we all do.

    Lin/Yi just suck, and he usually points that out to the dismay of many for some reason.

    It can't possibly be because he constantly ****s on other members opinions, could it?

    Intelligence is at a premium on clutchfans tonight.
