ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Warriors 3/8/2013

Every opponents' fans gets pissed at Harden nothing new. His style of drawing the contact just looks like flailing.

 

No we all don't know why, can you enlighten us?

 

In his case he only cares about Lin's minutes and not about the teams success, but you already knew that unless you lack reading comprehension skills.

 

What about when Lin is playing well, do you have any issues if he is being replaced when he is playing well? Or are you going to argue that has never happened this year?

If at best he is a role player then how do you explain some of his stellar performances this year and last? More importantly, is he a role player because of his innate talent or is it the role that mchale insists on? You don't think Lin can score 24 pts on 21 shots like curry did last night, if mchale would allow Lin to throw up that many shots? Then people would be pointing out how Lin is an Allstar cause he averages 20+ a game but the team would have a PHX record.

 

Where in his posts did he say he doesn't care about the team's success? I'm sorry for my shortcoming in the use of the English language.

 

No Lin? common man...

 

Guys, stop feeding the king1 troll!

 

Yes, I do have an issue when he is taken out when he playing well. I think if he's shooting well from the field and taking care of the ball he should finish the game. At no point have I maintained the opinion that Lin hasn't been pulled early in certain games. He definitely has.

I think he's a role player on a good team. Could he put up better numbers on team like Phoenix? Sure, but so can a lot of guys. Lin strikes me as a guy who cares more about winning then stats. I think he'd be content with averaging 12-15 points and 7 assists on a team that consistantly gets to the Playoffs. I think a lot of his fans would rather have him average 20 points and 6 assists on a team that never sniffs the postseason. There is no comparison between Curry and Lin. Curry is by far the superior player. It really isn't even close imo.

 

He's been qualifying everything by saying "good win but.." and then complaining about McHale

 

FIFY. :grin:

 

Has Lin improved running pg compared to last?

 

You think this is a career year out of Lin? Honestly, I think that's selling him short and most accuse me of disliking him. He can play much better imo if he develops a more consistant jumper in the offseason (which I think he will)

 

Yes he has.

 

Anyone see McHale fist bump Lin and smile at him during one of their exchanges between free throws lol

 

Easy to toss out blanket statements when you aren't contributing to the conversation. Just put me on ignore since you have nothing of substance to offer.

 

Yup even when numbers don't show it, I think he has improved in many areas of his game. Everyone expects Linsanity but that's not who Jeremy Lin is. (huk huk my Mchale impersonation.)

 

then stop complainig every time he makes a bad play. If he's the role player you say, then your problem should be with the coach leaving him in, not him making plays you dont like out there.

You cant count on role players to win you games, so when Lin doesn't through if needed, you shouldnt feel the need to point that out, but guess what, you always do. So ,make up your mind, you cant have it both ways.

 

Great to get the win, but the rockets got away with one.

There was the Smith goaltend.

The refs basically did the Hack-a-Bogut for them and he missed both.

Harden missed 2 freebies late.

 

Lin. Because I dont care about the suns and I want the rockets to win

 

Please show me were "I complain everytime he makes a bad play". Everytime I ask someone to demonstrate where I've done this they pass or log off. I've been in plenty of debates with logical Lin fans that didn't result in trivial bs. My problem is neither. He's going to make mistakes (all players do) and I don't have an issue taking out anyone not named Harden when they're struggling.

Again, show me some proof of what you're saying. When you can't you can apologize and I'll say "cool". I'm not the one with unreal expectations nor expecting him to replicate "Linsanity".
