    I was being sarcastic. I don't really think that of course. I am just making fun of those who will say you're a LOF anytime you credit Jeremy with something.

    of course it doesn't make sense to a moron like you. Cause u are dumb with HATE. stop hating bro, and just root for all our players.

    The only rocket player i really hated was Aldrich Cole. thank god we traded him.

    He has 10 points on 3/4 shooting and probably been our second or third best player. Give him a break for once man

    Both teams are turning the ball over like it's going out of style with 10 each.

    Never been on a game thread where so many long term members are complaining the calls supposedly going our way. Phantom LOHs I guess.
    I think it's been reffed pretty fairly. Clippers just complain a lot.

    I love the team ball being played right now. Off-the-ball screens are being set and defense is being played with effort.

    of course, i was simply adding another factor to the other poster's assessment. If you tell James Harden, shoot less pass more, his turnovers will go up.

    Honestly, I think it was assumed that Smith and Motiejunas would both be in foul trouble (or at least one of them) and that Robinson and Delfino would have to carry the second half.

    Okay, I'm sort of joking. Doesn't Robinson usually get significant time in one half or the other? Played a lot yesterday . . .

    Yeah, I thought he'd be a lock to be in, but it looks like D-Mo and Smith are playing PF and backup C when Asik's out.

    You can tell the haters from the real fans. When Lin does something good the haters stay silent...

    I'd agree with this.

    At this point in his development Lin's passing is stil definitely a work in progress. He's a scoring PG first, passing 2nd.

    That said, his passing has improved tremendously vs last season. The variety and complexity of his passing game has expanded since last season. His use of bounce passes, no look passes and cross court passes have all improved.

    That said, being up against arguably the best PG in the NBA is a tall order for anyone. I expect Chris Paul to get his regardless, just like Parker. The most Lin can hope for is to slow him down some and either score/facilitate, or draw aggressive coverage and open up his team mates.

    The Clippers have more talent, but talent can be beaten by team basketball. More quick passes and no team can cover everyone all the time. Then the Rockets just have to make buckets.
