    Lin is mediocre and until the Rockets upgrade the position they will always be mediocre

    So only the Pistons team featuring 4 all-stars were allowed to play basketball?

    As long as Lebron is in the league he will always be second.

    I find your lack of faith disturbing.

    Let's put that Game 1 disaster behind us. It only count as 1 loss and we won't play any worse than that. Lin fans, settle down, dude had a bad game, end of story, no need to keep on bringing up Game 1.

    Think we'll see a lot of the Lin-Bev-Harden-Parsons-Asik line-up. I don't like Harden on Durant, but we can't let Ibaka go off on us again. Let's also hope that our wings to stay on their men and not double and that McHale extends the bench more. I particularly want to see more Jones.

    Come on Rockets, let's go out fighting.

    Please temper the unrealistic expectations. The Thunder is way better than the Rockets and it's on their home floor. Accept it, it's not anyone's fault. We hope the Rockets win of course. Homerism is good as long as it doesn't become hate or jingoism.

    The Thunder would have a hell of a time trying to stop Howard and Harden. Parsons and Lin would have improved as well.

    Hey everybody we've been following this team all season. we've seen what works and what doesn't. we've seen that the more that Harden runs the offense the worse we play. The more Harden and Lin share the playmaking the better we do. Unfortunately it doesn't appear our coaching staff has seen that correlation. Here we are in the playoffs and we see Harden ISo, Parson ISO, Lin and everybody else ISO. What ever happened to team ball when we went on a winning streak? Now Harden, Parsons and Beverley are running the offense, McHale is screaming at Lin and Lin is playing timid. Total meltdown, selfish bball, no team chemistry. This year is lost and next year will be also unless McHale is replaced.

    I hope the team move the ball around and not stop at Harden for ISO. I hate the fact when there's good ball movement with few open shot but not taken and BAM stop at Harden ISO.

    Does the ball movement has to stop at Harden's hand? Why aren't other guys with open shot not taken and the ball need to get to Harden? I just don't understand this play.

    1) Lin must make better decision. Don't just drive into the paint and get trapped.
    2) More off-ball movement, especially Lin and Harden.
    3) For the love of all that's mighty, set better screen for the guards.
    4) Defense. Box-out. Rebound.

    And the team will still lose by 10. People need to have more realistic expectations. We were knocked out of the playoffs the night McFail and the team lost to PHX.

    The goal is to win at least ONE GAME and take it from there
