    Not to mention the whole linsanity phase was against the worst teams in the league lol except for LA, who are arguably terrible.

    Lin played good D, kyrie only shot .416 with 8 TOs, and several of those made buckets were on TD

    If you are too young to know who the ultimate warrior is, please study this video. There will be a quiz tomorrow in the hangout.

    I wouldn't say Irving (10/24) burned Lin (7/13)...dude he had twice the shots and hit a lower percentage...not to mention 8 TOs versus 4 TOs for Lin. They would have been equaled in points if Lin shot as much tonight....that you can take it to the bank.:grin:

    I am not concerned it took Irving so many shots (and some bs calls) to get 30 pts, also he had 8 turnovers.

    actually linsanity, aka, his 7 straight wins when he began to start did lead to the playoffs. take out those wins where he took over and they wouldn't have gone. that's a fact

    The West has better teams. Check the standings. If we were in the East, the Rockets would likely be top 3.

    I liked them quite a bit, especially after they were talking about moth balls in their suitcases...
    Very likeable because they laughed and joked throughout the broadcast...makes it enjoyable to listen.

    My thought exactly... Even after the game they spent a lit of time talking about harden, Lin, Patterson and asik

    Head reaction was quite natural considering the guy just got 5 stitches in his head last night, trying to avoid tearing the wound again or something.

    Whoever keep predicting the warning or fine need to stop.

    I didn't know you were the sensitive type. The entire month, I've been calling Harden a superstar, f the defense, I know a superstar-to-be when I see one, and at 23! But, I don't like iso ball. I really, really don't. When Jordan was coming on back in the days, I resisted it like forever and loved Magic/Bird style basketball which was team first basketball.

    The last game, Harden bossed it out. This game, for me, shows me the lack of playsets available. As an example, I hate it when the Lakers go Kobe ball for the last minutes of many games!! Don't tell me you like that. 80
    % if not more of the plays run by McHale was Lin to Delfino to Harden for the iso/pnr.

    This forum has become too sensitive. I've got a Harden jersey for crying out loud.
