[Y Sports Radio] Calvin Murphy: Jeremy Lin Needs The Ball In His Hands

so you disagree with a HOFer? um, interesting.

 

Exactly, so don't try to equate harden and lebron, which is what you tried to do! Seriously, your brain is so fried I feel sorry for you. You obviously don't have a clue as to what you are trying to argue.

 

The 40 minute a night bothers torocan as well, especially when he is out there in the 4th quarter when we are down 10 in a back-to-back situation. I think that McHale really wants to win, and Harden is certainly the Rockets best chance to win.

The problem is that this season we are not going anywhere, and we know how good Harden is, let him play 35-38 minutes, let Lin play 35 minutes and get some minutes for Beverley or Douglas.

 

Straight up LOH. Very obvious. Try harder. Really.

 

He didn't try to equate LeBron and Harden....... just drop it......

Just like the other poster did not equate Westbrook and Lin.

 

They are different positions....You don't compare a SG to a SF, you don't compare a C to a PG. No one is as good as Lebron right now, and I never said otherwise. IMO there are 3 superstar caliber SG's in the NBA, Kobe, Wade, and Harden. That's it. There is an argument that Harden is the very best SG in the league. Now that doesn't mean he's better than Lebron, doesn't mean he's better than Durant, it only means he's better than any other SG in the league right now.

 

harden can be the other great scorer playing alongside since harden is a much better shooter than lin.

 

Jesus man, Tony parker doesn't put up numbers like that by not touching the ball. Ginobli selectively dominates the ball, to still runs the ****. The spurs have an actual offense and its better than most in the league. Wtf man. Wade is a good pg, probably better than harden, and during the time he won with Shaw, had a great team and was fuxking unstoppable.

Btw, tp and Westbrook are nice cimparisona to lin ( playatyle ), except that they are better, at least at this point.

 

LOL, I'm neither a "LOH" or "LOF", I'm just a Rockets fan. I'm neither for or against Lin.

 

You're the one who equated the two as "superstars" who need to have a team's offense run through them, you idiot! Your backtracking now is another clear sign that you are an LOH who will throw any and every pseudo-argument your pea-brain can generate to see what will hopefully stick.

TRY HARDER!

 

Harden can't be the only scoring threat, and the second scoring threat at the same time.

 

Just ignore it. It's the delusion of a desperate LOH.

 

Saying they are both superstar caliber players does not equate them....but yes, superstar players should have their team's offense run through them. I don't see how you would disagree.

 

Duh, why is this so hard for people to understand? Giving Lin the ball a little more isn't going to turn Harden into Kevin Martin. It not like Murphy said that Lin should have the ball at all times and be the #1 option on offense. There are other teams not named the Heat, with very good players, and their PGs still get to play the PG position. The majority of fans don't want or expect Lin to handle the ball as much as cp3 does but at least, let him play his position.

 

So, I'm guessing Scott brooks is an idiot for letting his backcourt share the ball right? Only one should have it, Westbrook relegated to spot up 3s with the rest of the team. Only way KD is going to succeed is if only he gets the ball?

 

when ball in lin's hands, lin becomes much better and more dangerous scoring threat. now, we have two scoring threats.

 

A 7 game losing streak proves otherwise. TRY HARDER.

 

Yes

What is most frustrating about McHale sometimes is that it does not feel like he is acting with a vision, or with authority. I generally try to avoid criticizing the coaching staff too much because they deserve to be cut a lot of slack given the youth of the team, etc., but this issue right here has been a problem -- and widely discussed -- for a really long time.

 

Again, you are talking about a team with more than one really great scorer on it. The Rockets have Harden and then nothing but very young role players, that's not the same.

 

Actually it only proves that they are the youngest team in the league and their roster still needs improvement.
