    Moray said increase the variance! This is big! Now OKC has to adjust, I like our chances. :p

    And Jeremy played the whole season for us and got dumped on because he's injured. some "fans" on this site are pathetic.

    Asian fans are in an uproar on Facebook from the Lin hate... Hopefully are chemistry will be fine and Lin produces.

    Bc he was injured? People have been hating on his game all year and some of the hate was warranted.

    that's what happened to the whole team in games 1, 2, and 3. this is how the team is built. attack the rim or shoot threes. it's been like this the whole season. we can't win if we don't hit our threes, period.

    My bad. With Jeremy coming off the bench the Rockets should win. I kinda wished he would not play because now more than ever, we need the attacking Jeremy. I don't think he is ready for the attack yet.

    I won't lie, I wasn't too thrilled to here Lin was coming back tonight. I'm glad he is feeling better though. Just hoping he can help and not hurt the Rox at this point. I been proud of McHale sticking to what was working the last few games and hope nothing backfires tonight.

    Brooks will still play PG. Lin is coming in for Delfino.

    I understand why people are upset. We are in the playoffs and actually have a good thing going. No need to mess up the chemistry(although i don't think it would).

    They are bringing him off the bench.

    All of you who are worried about this messing up team chemistry are out of your minds.

    If he comes in and sucks after a few minutes, he'll get a seat on the bench.

    Now are you sure about this? His few minutes can alter the state of the universe and hurt our chances at a NBA title.

    you don't understand.... it's been a lonnngggg time since the rockets have had any success in the playoffs. some people feel lucky to still be playing at this point of the playoffs, and don't want anything, anything at all to jeopardize this perfect little storm.

    never mind that by coming off the bench, if lin is playing well, he can help. if not, he won't do too much damage. just like in the regular season, you bench hardly ever gets blamed for losing a game for you. well, unless your bench is jlin, but we'll have to see about that tonight...

    There is no guarantee what was working last couple of games will work in next game. It's all about adjustments in the playoffs. Obviously what worked for Knicks in the first three games didn't work in the next two games. What worked in game 3 for Thunders didn't work for them in game 4 and 5. Of course knowing Scott Brook is terrible coach and doesn't know how to adjust, Rockets' game may work again tonight and I hope this is the case.

    Regarding Lin back into the lineup, I am sure coaching staff will be watching closely. If he is not contributing, he will be pulled out. So I don't think his play will change the result of this game unless he pulls a Linsanity.

    I doubt Lin sniffs the floor unless that starting 5 with Beverly and Garcia go 0-10 shooting in the first half. Brooks should play ahead of Lin also if the Rox get off to a good start.

    Especially since Bev and Brooks are playing perfect basketball against future HOF Derek Fisher. NO ONE has ever played well against Fisher in the playoffs.
