    I want Lin to stay, improve his game, and light it up.
    And the Rockets hating fanboy stalkers to find another player/team to leech off of.

    Thank you. Exactly my point.

    When Dragic was here, he wasn't getting all the love that seemed to be oozing from these Dragic fans now. I know many here that didn't want him re-signed.

    PER Twitter: Harden was hobbling badly as he left the locker room.

    Yep He might be out for a while.

    Harden was -7 so I guess Douglas>Harden for you too?

    Not saying that Douglas didn't play better than Lin, but those numbers are BS...except 2pat's -24 lol

    Missed tonight's game. Another loss. What da hell happened ASik and Lin with such low minutes. Foul trouble or just bad?

    This is one of the worst posts on clutchfans that I have never seen. No, Douglas is not clutch. That was ****ing stupid. I had to read that more than once. Also, neither are great defenders, they both play decent defensively ( numbers have shown Lin to be slightly better I believe ) and TD is terrible defending screens. What games do you watch. Seriously, instead of parroting the other r****ds who are more than likely talk I g out of their ass, make your own opinions.

    Unless this is your opinion. If so, you should stop.

    Lol, you're delusional. There is no such thing as a "Lin only hater."

    These LOH's you speak of are just true Rockets fans who are upset at posters that put Lin's success before the team's.

    Hoo boy.

    If he has a sprained ankle, he could be out for quite a while.

    If he is, it will be some interesting games ahead...

    Forked out the bucks for date night, lower bowl seats. Brutal game. We were down by 19 twice in the first Q, which prompted my wife's quip, "How bad would the score be if Dirk's playing?" Like that rhyming radio guy's shtick: Harden with 30 in the first half was fun; if he could've done that in the second half, we'd've won. Not surprised to see no TJ or DMo-- but is Morris hurt, or just DNP-CD'd? Refs looked biased for Dallas, but what else is new? Oh, Lin hit a couple 3s. Get well soon, Asik.

    If he's out for a few games I hope it's one of those things that turns out to be a blessing in disguise.

    Because if Harden is out then maybe they will be forced to try and get Lin going off more picks (although that will be useless if Patterson is setting them...)

    Clearly you didn't see what happened in the general NBA/Knicks forums last year.

    There is a real contingent of posters that follow Lin just to troll Lin fans. It's a rather bizarre phenomenon.

    CF logic 101:

    When Lin > Douglas in +/- = +/- doesn't mean anything.

    When Douglas > Lin in +/- = numbers don't Lie.

    Harden said ankle tightened up on him big time in 2H. Limping in locker room afterward. Will get treatment & hopes to be good to go Monday. -Friendman twitter

    Doesn't sound that bad. Maybe a game.
