    Did you watch the game or just checked out the box-score?

    Vasquez shot 2-for-11 against Lin ___________ 4 pts

    He shot 3-for-3 against T.Douglas ___________ 8 pts (including 2 3s)

    He shot 1-for-1 by a missed match __________ 2 pts (his 1st FG tonight)

    Thanks for the advice. Aren't you the person who compared Lin to Stockton and Kidd? You may want to take a look in the mirror.

    You could say Lin got shut down but it wasn't by Vasquez. It was by Brook & Davis. Lin did shut down Gervis but gervis didn't shut him down. The NOLA bigs did. They made him alter his shots at the rim. People need to watch the games.

    This board is such a mess. Did we not just win a game? Here's a clue--just ignore the trolls and stop feeling like you need to respond to every bait. Why they need to hate a Rockets player, who knows, who cares? Just root for the team and move on.

    More like 8/10...4 semi-clutch 4th quarter points, 7/2 ass/TO ratio, only 1 PF (a weak call at that) despite playing great defense for 42 min, +17 plus/minus...

    For those of us that actually watched the game, Lin definitely shut Vasquez down 95% of the time he was covering him.

    Vasquez went off on Douglas.

    Tou mean Lin should shut down those assists too? Damn...that is more of a team effort...Lin can't guard the one who is shooting the ball man.

    You guys are criticizing Lin like crazy...
