    What the hell is going on today!

    First, Morey saying Lin is better than Bev, then I read these stats showing Lin is a better defender than Bev!

    What is it? Harvard player day or S*** on Beverley day?

    I'm sick of advanced stats showing Lin is better than Bev. Morey's team is full of nerds that have a bias towards nerds like Lin. Beverley also got kicked out for cheating on his term paper so I reckon the nerds are twisting the stats to spite him as well.

    This thread is an opportunity for us to S*** on Lin and show Beverley is better, not the other way around.

    STOP POSTING STATS! THEY CAN BE MANIPULATED! THIS ISNT BASEBALL GODDAMMIT!

    Y'all are spoiling the fun. I don't care what Morey says.
    BEVERLEY > LIN

    Once Westbrook got hurt it was the design of the defense to force shots from the point guards.

    This isn't about Lin, idiot. Jesus Christ, how many people have to reply to your inane posts saying the same thing over and over again for you to understand? You've been a terrible poster since day 1 and you still are today. :rolleyes:

    That's what the ignore button is for. So much sensitivity.

    Yeah, there are a lot of sensitive people here. It's unbelievable how sensitive these guys get. I don't even know where the ignore button is and if i did, i would ignore it.
    Man up people!!! They are just opinions! They don't go bump in the night!!!:rolleyes:

    I agree. But as I've stated, I think that you can force the other guys to beat you while still getting back on D to contest a shot to some extent but I feel that with Beverley that wasn't happening. And Jackson did plenty of damage from within the 3 pt line so Bev obviously wasn't able to do a good job staying with him.

    I just think good defenders could've run our plays and still held Jackson in check to some extent.

    But it's also unbelievable how sensitive some of you guys are that if a person is critical of a single aspect of another Rocket PG's game other than Lin, then it must be b/c we are an LOF and you must come into the thread with lame accusations and bring Lin into the discussion

    Man up people. This thread is just an opinion, albeit one that many people agree with.

    (See how that works both ways Badlee?)

    Well said. I wish there was a way to block QUOTES of people on you ignore list. I've had writesbadly on my ignore list for quite a while but lots of other people still reply to him.

    Dang, I've enjoyed some of SuperStar's posts and have been trying to keep him off my Ignore list. He makes number 300 there and STILL threads are cluttered with adolescents and asshats.

    Sorry to hear MonKing. I don't understand why people feel the need to let everyone know who the ignore though. Just do it silently and move on. you are not a beautiful and unique snowflake.
