Bev works better on smaller, quicker guards. Too undersized to be effective against Westbrook. Lin gives Westbrook more problems due to his size. In any case neither guy is really stopping WB so Lin should be out there for his offense.
Actually I thought Lin did a better job on Westbrook than Bev, but no one can stop Westbrook anyways.
I thought he played pretty good D on Westbrook for the most part, but when he tried that pass between Durant's legs, it was
Yeah. He's smart, he will watch film and say that was an un Harvard thing to do. Westbrook is a problem. Don't know how we are going to solve it

The frustrating thing about watching Lin is he has the quickest first step on the court and there were numerous times where he had his man beat off the dribble if he would have just kept attacked but would hesitate and just hold the ball trying to think of what he wants to do, which allows the defense to set up again. He can almost get to the rim at will if he wanted to but he lacks that same instinct Harden has.

weve been saying that all year, maybe Lin is what he is... a mediocre pg who cashed in on a 7 game stretch

Did you watch any of the rockets games all season? Lin was terrible in the beginning of the season and he has improved month after month. Lin now is better than Lin at new york-->fact
Boy got his lunch eaten. The good thing about the playoffs is its 1 game at a time. Regardless of how bad we got beaten . Can we win at least 1 game though?
