    Yes, I think those kind behavior has to do with our passing-lane defense at some extend, but if the guy you suppose to defend is shooting 3s and you are at the other side of court is just hilarious.

    True, i personally dont think he did too bad. you're right he contributed and did whatever he could. But you know if we lost tonight the blame would have feel majorly on harden for his poor shooting.

    I am glad Mchale didn't bench Lin too much tonight. Lin was doing an effective job guarding Curry, who is probably the best shooter in the NBA.

    I just kind of worry about his overall health. he's been playing heavy minutes all year. of course we needed him many games but a lot of games he could have played 5-8 minutes less. mchale has a tendency to stick with harden and parsons in games when we don't need to out of worrying we're going to lose the lead or something when he should get them out of the game when we can.

    We have their numbers, bless those little Warriors for trying though :cool:

    -I give Curry props for breaking JLin's ankles twice, too bad he still lost and got his 24pts on 21 shots. (JLin got 15 on only 9 so you lose again Steph :p)

    -James is still clearly hurting, he has NO lift and likely the reason his shot is suffering :( He still contributed with amazing assists and got to the line.

    -JLin was jittery and slippery as hell. That boy better not have been out partying with Curry and Lee again. His defense was decent, offensively he was as involved today. Went back to just instantly giving James the ball, maybe cuz they're aware James is struggling to spot up shoot right now? or they're aware Jeremy was hung the hell over.

    -Parsons is my religion. LOL@the one play he freely skipped past Bogut who was huffin' and puffin' like a bear who got shot in the ass with a tranquilizer dart.

    :)

    yea and look at the knicks now. JKidd can hardly walk and Felton has crashed back to earth after a hot start. Melo can't even stay upright and he wont even show up to games in a suit in a few hours to support the team. Even with Melo out Amare cant start...nope, Kurt Thomas must start and immediately come out after 3 minutes. THey're a mess right now.

    Nice win now on to play the Suns. The Suns will also be playing on a B2B today. The bench needs to come up big tomorrow. I hope AB can see some PT in today's game.

    If Houston close out the series with GS, I doubt Lee and Curry will be talking to him for awhile.:grin:

    lin's size today was a big factor against curry. curry went 8-21. beverley is a good defending guard against some speedy penetrating guards but against the shooters you should have lin there for the size advantage.

    Can anyone help with what was said at the time out. Someone said that there was a difference in attitude between Mchale and Mark Jackson. What was said, and what was the difference thanks.

    Would be better if we can develop our cutters...and if they develop better understanding of each other's game...

    When Lin starts to drive, someone should anticipate that he would stop and look for cutters...He and Parson's do that often..but sometimes Parsons is well covered thus he can't make a cut for Lin..D-Mo is currently developing into a good cutter for them...

    The TO (where Lin picked his dribble and passed at the wing )..someone should make a cut on that play..unfortunately Lin can't find no one and just passed it to the wing where Garcia is..unfortunately, Garcia did not anticipate the pass to come thus he stayed on his feet....anyway, as the season goes along and they learned the tendencies of each other these kind of TO's will be lessened....
