    Patterson got burned mostly when he was closing out on Ibaka. He was always late because he tried to help on the Durant/Westbrook penetrations. Ibaka just made his shots.

    Those stats don't punish td enough. He lost the ball two times for sure when he drove.

    I know most of you won't agree but I'm really thinking we should take a look at Delonte West as a backup PG for Lin. Just set him up with the same psychiatrist that were sending Royce White to lol

    OKC knows how to defend Harden. Miami knew how to defend him as well. As soon as other teams figure it out, well you get the idea. Harden was awful tonight.

    Based on this single game? If so, neither Harden nor Lin deserved their contracts.:grin:

    On a different note, Lin needs to know when Harden is having a bad day and take control of the offense and attack the basket.

    We just got beat by a better team, no big deal.

    We need another year or two to fill out our roster before we can play with the big buys. Missing Parsons hurt as well.

    The quality of your posts are steadily declining.

    No... :)

    It's a damn shame though, West is a good player.

    Ironic cause I wish we had the Bobcats' record right now instead of ours. :(

    We need a dominate big man... If we have that teams will not be able to crash Harden on the perimeter. LaMarcus Aldridge would fit that bill to the T

    Decent effort against a championship caliber team. If Harden was on or Chandler playing OKC still would have played harder. Rockets building chemistry slowly but surely. Lin still needs to get more aggressive.

    Just in case y'all were wondering, Scott Machado's per 36 min stats are 28.8 pts & 14.4 assists.

    He shot poorly early in the season but he was not back in form from his injury. His more recent games he's shown leaps of improvement in athleticism and in turn his shots are falling at a much higher %.

    Since the NY game he's 16-28 which is over 50%.

    Westbrook was shooting below 40% for the first stretch of games, Ty Lawson, hell, Deron Williams is shooting below 40%. Doesn't make them poor shooters.

    There was a larger sample size last season and Jeremy shot in the mid 40s percentage wise and I think that's where he'll ultimately end up this season.

    Lin wants to pass. You can't be a good playmaker if all you want is to do is score. The team played much better when Lin was the primary ball handler.

    Harden was playing all out hero ball today.
