    It was mutual thing actually, the organization made him a offer but they wanted him to bring on a guy they were thinking of using as his replacement (coach in waiting) and Adelman looked at the future rebuild they were in for and said no thanks.

    The hate is really strong in some of you. It's the same old posters you expect to start these threads.
    Airball was terrible though not the only reason we lost. Lebron was scoring at will. Referees were screwing up. Harden stopped using his brain on those last couple of plays.

    That's the problem. You're an only Lin fan. You joined because you're a Lin fan, not a Rocket's fan. You will say anything to excuse him. He is immune to any criticism. Their are hundreds of you. It's unbearable. Rockets forum has gone to ****.

    Yeah. This.
    I was expecting 14/7 and he's been averaging like 10/6. Not worth his contract, but its decent enough to run the point.

    I've seen enough to know that he's got a long way to go. Not saying he won't get there ....eventually, but he's not a $8.5 mil player; not even close.

    And I can put up a video of Lin draining a winning three. What's the point? Suns and Raptors both have losing records.

    Are you going to compare lebron james's contract the jeremy lin's contract. Lebron took the the cavs to the finals. A team that started eric snow and drew gooden, sasha pavlovic, eric snow, and the big Z.

    There are only a few extreme Lin fans who believe he is immune to any criticism. And it goes both ways. Some haters will go out of their way to **** on the guy for every single little thing.

    Calm down folks. I know with fans its end of the world at everything but I thought Lin played well tonight. 3-8 from the field, 9 points, 6 assists, 3 blocks, 1 steal and 2 turnovers is not a bad stat line, especially from someone as young as Lin.

    Treat Lin like you would a upcoming top draft pick. If that were the case I bet most of you would be saying he has tons of potential and room to grow. Don't get caught up in all of the Linsanity business and look at him like an actual player. He is still very young, he has a great work ethic, great court vision, good defense.

    Shooting has been shaky but that is one thing that I think you can improve throughout your career.

    come on!! OP unfairly blames everything on Jlin, and i'm sure if the team wins, he won't give any credit to Lin, he will just give credit to Harden or whoever.

    If you watched the game, believe what you've seen and trust in your own judgement. Lin made some mistakes, but made some nice key plays as well

    Yao was a top 2 center. He backed it up.

    Lin played well today

    9pts 5rb, 6ast, 3blk, 2 TO

    I am pity for him hitting that air ball.
    Great team effort, if not the refs, we should have won.

    I really don't think that was necessary.
