    I heard that Mchale is flying the team back to Houston to "sleep in their own bed" before next game in OKC. If I were a rocket player after the blowout loss like tonight, I'd stay in OKC and practice my shooting on the Ford Center bball court all day tomorrow.

    Yeah why don't they just stay there and not have to worry about flying back and forth?

    My commute to work is probably longer than their flight.

    Do you realize that the flight time is under an hour?

    McHale has succeeded in destroying Lin's confidence. It took him a whole season, but he has finally broken Lin. Sorry Lin, you lost.

    I think it's safe to say Lin has done that all on his own. Mid range jumpers, missing key passes on pick and rolls, and PLAYING AGAINST A TEAM THAT LOST TO THE EVENTUAL CHAMPS LAST SEASON can do that to you.

    As much as I like McHale as a leader of men, this team really needs an experienced and polished coach. I think we have enough fire in the team already.

    Can we Morey and Les to apologize to Rick?

    Hopefully, Lin will hit rock bottom and become stronger from this.

    Why are you ranting man? LOF outnumber the LOH by FAR. And every time someone (usually Harden) has a bad game, the hate for him is much worse than any hate for Lin.

    My theory is that Stern will give OKC the 2013 championship, so that Durant and Lebron can replicate the Bird/Magic rivalry from the 80's. Never was the NBA so popular as during that era.

    It is not about the flight time. The point is after such a blowout loss, I'd get myself familiarize with that court till I can shoot with my eyes closed.

    This is silly. Lin himself said that he felt like all his shots are going in. Lin has confidence he just sucked today. It happens not a big deal.

    If I am not mistaken, the reason they are flying back to Houston.....the hotel they're staying is haunted.

    Correct me if I am wrong lol.

    If his confidence is that weak, then he doesn't belong in the NBA.

    Not today, but overall throughout the season, perhaps so. Most of our losses this year have been blamed on Harden.
