    I'm not even worried about his assists. I'd like to see his scoring rise and his TOs drop.

    Simmons likes Lin but he doesn't follow the Rockets, so doesn't matter what he says.

    Barry is embarrassing himself: Rondo is in complete control and of course Lin is not good enough. Then they showed the stats and Lin dominated him!

    Question for the LOH: How would Rondo look playing alongside Harden in the role Lin has been given?

    when you are being talked as "the best backcourt duo" you're gonna get criticized when it's not going perfectly especially fron guys like Bill Simmons who can't come up with anything interested to say by themselves.

    Heh. Aldrich has played 90 minutes, THIS YEAR. McHale played Aldrich over Smith early in the year, because Smith was out with an ankle injury. Recently McHale played Alrich the last 1:50 of the half with Asik and Smith in foul trouble. That particular 1:50 took about 30 minutes to play and we didn't do very well, but we've had some other bad stretches.

    Reading is fundamental. You should work on it. Did I say anything about defense? No. The Rockets and Lin are playing solid D on Rondo. However, when someone asks something stupid like this...
    ...it warrants pointing out that rondo is having a poor game.
    No Lin staying on pace with Rondo today does not make him elite. Rondo is having a poor game. Patterson is "right there" with Garnett tonight. Doesn't mean anything though.

    Pretty funny- Barry on Rondo "its not about the scoring its about everything else he does."

    meanwhile Lin and Rondo's stats at the half are almost identical

    Didn't McHale want Lin on the left side of the court to go right and Harden on the right to go left, haven't seen it once..
