    There's more than just Lin on this team you know and that goes for both LOF and LOH legion. I'd like to go 1 page without the word 'Lin' in it? Can we do this folks?

    On this page, excluding my own posts, 11 posts are about Lin's pee-pee rash and only 5 are about something else. Lame.

    BTW why isn't DMo given more minutes, esp when you need offensive rebounds, he was just money.

    So you're predicting what will occur in this page, since you're the second post? (obviously I'm kidding)

    There's good news at least

    @Jonathan_Feigen

    At last, the Hou-Sac deal is official. If the Rockets were playing a double-header, Robinson, Garcia could play. Honeycutt sent to RGV.

    I have a feeling T-Rob is going to see a lot of mins with his defense, finishing skills, and rebounding.

    For anyone who is blaming Lin, you're late on the bandwagon.

    Lin was terrible earlier this season...

    But he's just fine now. He has been playing exceptionally well for the last two months or so. He has really come around and is doing his job just fine. He's actually been more aggressive as well. He's still young so there's going to be some inconsistency, but overall Lin is headed in the right path.

    I don't see the need to criticize him at this point.

    Our pg situation is actually pretty decent right now. Surprisingly Beverley has been doing a decent job backing up Lin. Aside from the points where he loses his mind of course..

    I was using "you" in the same way you used "you", so it was not personal. You can count me as an LOF. It doesn't really matter to me if you are an LOF or an LOH. That's the first time I've used those terms by the way.

    What matters to me is seeing this team develop, and that includes bad nights for any player. I also think if Lin is to progress, there's got to be more options on the offensive end so that he can maximize his capabilities, and that means more PnRs. If you watched any of those NYK games last year, you'll know that Lin was deadly when used properly. Dennis Scott also mentioned the same thing.

    I don't blame McHale's coaching methods, he's got to run the game with the players he's got. Hopefully this new guy Robinson turns out to be a good PnR guy and McHale incorporates that more into the offense, specifically for Harden & Lin.

    I disagree, TD played good for limited minutes but that doesn't mean if he got starters minutes he would put up better numbers. He clearly didn't do it in NY. If TD was a starter, teams wouldn't even have a defensive game plan for him. Imagine how much defensive pressure would be on Harden then. What makes our offense effective is the penetrations from Harden and Lin and kick out for 3's if they close out.

    Greg Smith went down like he was shot when Gilbert Arenas ran into him.

    You've got the Platinum Premium LOF card, Im jealous :p

    Wouldn't that make it more authentic :p

    Thanks for contributing with another post entirely dedicated to Lin.
    Start a different topic then, if not then don't be surprised everyone is talking about Jeremy's horrible game that stood out like a sore thumb today, everyone else played as expected IMO.

    It's going to be like this until a mod doesn't allow it. Some forums don't allow x-player homerism vs haterade because it gets too extreme and ruins the discussion. But...the ignore button works too. :cool:
