    LMAO. You dudes will make up any excuse you can for this cat. Lin SUCKS!!!!. It's OK. Sooner or later you'll be saying "It's only been 57 games, give him a chance".

    Sorry, but im not big on Harden. He disappears in the clutch and has been shut down a few times this year.

    Oh, and his turnovers have cost the team.

    Count it....THREE all-stars tonite vs. ONE beard. Thank goodness Nash was not playing otherwise that would be FOUR! A painful experience for the Rox, but it is what it is. Just shows the gap between the star-laden teams and the rest.

    Harden is basically Gilbert Arenas part II.

    No way we ever sniff a championship with him running the show.

    The main thing I learned from this game is that Gasol is taller than Howard.

    He is not the reason for the loss, but his confidence is shot to prices and he couldn't hit water from a boat at the moment.

    They seriously need to find a way to un-f**k Lin's shot, my God.

    I know this takes time, but maybe Harden + Lin doesn't equal a match.

    So far Lin's come alive when he has a coach who throws him a ball and says, Here. Go play. It's all yours.

    At this point, I'd like to see more and more of Mook and Jones... and less of Lin.

    Yeah, and they find other ways to score. Lin isn't Mello.

    2 straight games of 10+ Assists, and 3 turnovers or less...that's actually pretty tough to do, only happened 30 times last year.

    You sound like you played better than anybody. Why don't you go on the court to show us what you can do? Oh, I know, you can't. You are only good at whining in front of the computer.

    I thought it was backloaded in terms of salary, but 8/8/8 in terms of cap for us.

    harden's been turning the ball over too much, again 5 for tonight, he's gonna have to learn to protect his ball better when he is going to the hoop

    BTW, lin needs to practise his shots , a lot.................................
