    And they also were pretty even in the third until Lin sat, never came back for some strange reason.

    Trust me... he knows... the difference is Durant is a very unselfish and quiet Alpha.. but when the game is on the line everyone knows where the ball goes.

    I just don't get how Kevin freakin McHale can coach a team to play no defense and have their PFs chucking up 3s and get no rebounds. It's just wrong.

    Starters were in wayyyyy too long. With the lack of plays they run on offense and mchale's supposed defensive mentality you would think you would see SOMETHING on that end of the court. 25 turnovers? That's unbelievable. That's a lack of accountability. This has nothing to do with tired legs. It's time to get a serious coach in here.

    I think, when they mention this, they are assuming you would take into account that the flow of the offense was different in the second quarter. Didn't know you needed to be hit over the head with it.

    We have a pretty good idea of it. Those of us who actually watched Martin's stint here...most were begging for him to be traded.

    Courtney Lee out played Martin for his starting spot and the team was mostly on the back of Lowry/Dragic, Last year's record was mostly because of those two...both players left.

    I know you think that Harden is in the way of Lin's blossoming into this superstar player or something though.

    No they weren't. Nuggets were up by like 8 when Lin went to the bench. Stop making things up.

    It's sad man. No discussion about Asik, Morris, Patterson, Parsons etc. Quality of the game threads is way down this year.

    I would agree with you, but the coaching seems to have no clue. Played differently during the winning streak. Have shown flashes and been successful in other games ( Dallas 4th quarter despite loss, haven't seen that since ), but its never repeated. Honestly don't know wtf to say about it. In other words, I can easily imagine that to be the case.

    Well, they did disrespect him for doing good by benching him. And when he was gone, the team tanked even more. I'm not saying that it was because Lin was out, then that WAS THE REASON why the team tanked. But that was sure disrespectful.

    we can't defend, we don't run any plays on offense, and we turn the ball over like crazy. I know we're a young team, but it's got to start somewhere.

    Us LOF's may get crazy at times, but there should be one thing that LOF's and LOH's agree with...McFail sucks as a coach and should be fired ASAP.

    I'm wondering the same damn thing. It's pathetic. On a side note, at least the lakers suck
