Basically... 1) The starters were painful to watch 2) It didn't become a ball game until Lin and Cisco entered 3) Stop shackling Lin 4) wtf Mchale
I am going to assume that both Chris Baldwin and Laetitia are not Asians. There goes the myth that Lin fans are only made up of ignorant LOFs. And I hope no one buys into Baldwins article because its tone is patronizing and divisive. It's like the Rockets did not decisively beat the Bobcats or something. Forget style points, a win is a win, especially by double digits.
Didn't even click on the article after reading the "shooting an unnecessary 3 pointer at the end of the game" line. Does this guy even watch basketball? Shot clock brah.
This guy is a douche and NOBODY should use him to back up any kind of agenda they may have. Even LOF's. Just don't.
People also quote Mike de Moor here as well, and they shouldn't. The fact is there are very few writers who can write something balanced about the Rockets. It's just not what this team brings out in people.
Basically... 1) I don't understand a thing about basketball 2) I'm gonna use 6 minutes in one game while ignoring the numerous reasons why the offense struggled to prove a point 3) I hate Beverley because he's not Lin 4) I refuse to acknowledge that there might, just might, be some logic behind having Lin come off the bench aka ginobili or Harden from OKC years.

good read. thanks for posting. what didn't get mention in the other thread is that Mchale had been eying the arabian prince since he was 18.
