    CP3 made 10 of his 23 pts when Lin had got into foul troubles. But it is Lin's inexperience that allows CP3 to get him into foul trouble.

    Either Jones or Smith should get the start Saturday. Only because they are the two stronger of our PF's. D-Mo should be matched up against Mullens.

    Nice post. The offense is going to suffer with the TT, but the gain in offense is good. He messed in putting Bev in the starting lineup, and now Lin and Dwight have very little chemistry. Lin plays pnr with GSmith and Asik pretty OK but not so with Dwight, but it should be the other way around! He puts too much responsibilities on Harden and the results won't be good.

    On another note, no idea why Greg Smith didn't get more burn. He was keeping us in it during that one stretch.

    I wished Bev is here. At least he can take some load of defending CP3 and also allows Lin to play the SG.

    Part of me wants Harden to do a postgame interview to see what he has to say for himself. The other part of me thinks he doesn't deserve one.

    The majority do. It's obvious as daylight.Back to this point, to say Lin would have same stats as Paul if he had his team means lin is on the same level as Paul. That is farsical.

    I don't know, Howard played pretty well. Too bad about the fouls though, he was bullying Deandre in the paint.

    Wth, do you know how many clutchfans there are. Harden played very poorly. Let them fume.

    2 of those fouls were phantom fouls. I was at the game

    CP3 had his way tonight but I thought Lin displayed some nice PnR passes in this game, a couple even to Asik who couldn't finish.

    There were times he failed to finish at the rim. He had a decent game like Lin.

    no, it's CP3 flopping and superstar calls that got Lin into foul trouble.

    Agreed. I'm a huge Drose fan but Paul is just great. He's on a league of his own.

    29-43 FTs 67.4% ...that's a lot to make up.

    Lin picked up a really quick (bad) foul on Blake early in the 1st, like @ the 11 or 10 min mark...and that screwed him...he played decent D on CP3. I hate how ya just say he got owned cause his stat line was crazy...point guards have to fight over a million picks. Additionally he was getting some Jordan calls...ppl hardly even would touch him...and really that Tech on Garcia at the end was ridiculous...CP3 was the one who Jabbed!!!

    Howard in foul trouble super early ( I thought G. Smith played really well)

    Harden didn't come to play... seriously 0-7 from 3pt... just take it to the hole.
