    Marcus, I apologize for...for...for... wait! I never said anything bad about him. What am I apologizing for?

    Oh I remember now. The season opener where we were in the lead, and then Morris happened. :)

    Everyone has a bad game from time to time. We just have to support them!

    Lin was clutch everytime before. He took over 4th quarters when needed. Honestly even after the airball fiasco, I'll rather have Lin ISOing any time of the week than Harden.

    I think Lin's breakdown is more of the coach's fault, they took away the role from him, and gives him less shots than Parsons/Morris a game, and let him take the last/important shot even though he barley touched the ball that 4th. His confidence is definitely shot.

    Harden's ISO hero ball seems to fail so much. He's just not an ISO player as of yet. He looks like Dwade out there, begging for calls after every failed drive.

    TD fouled twice on perimeter in 10 minutes. Like I said before, he overfouls.

    Been impressed by Morris' shooting but I'd like to see more banging from him.
    Did he really have to try to shoot it over Davis? lol, he's a baller tho.

    We are playing really well as a team. Nothing would make me happier now than seeing Lin driving....

    Oh yea, definitely. I mean, Harden has been shooting terribly for the past 4 games but tonight he's picking his spots well and he's looking very efficient.

    I think Lin will learn what kind of shots he likes to take and what not to take. If he has a wipe open 3, he can always attack at will.

    Marcus Morris is +23 for the half. What a stud.

    The thing is, his 3 point shooting is roughly where it was last year. It just looks a lot worse because if you take 10 shots a game total and 6 or them are three's and you make two of them, then it looks like your shooting sucks.

    In NY he was constantly PnR and getting to the basket and mixing up lots of other good percentage shot with the 3s. But right now Sampson/McHale him playing as a spot-up SG, and the only thing that's going to do is destroy his confidence completely.

    Also, Omer is dominating defensively. Anthony Davis is scared to go near the basket.

    Or...Lin can play PG and Harden plays SG. You know, the positions they are supposed to play...
