    Yes, and he came off the bench for Larry Legend, very different situation.

    Thx! I guess top 15 doesn't mean a jack.

    Fell asleep at halftime. Glad to see we pulled it out. Sounds like it was a good 4th quarter.

    though they see it with crappy coaches like mike brown leashing Gasol, it's difficult for some to see that the way a coach decides to play can really hinder a player .

    I really like that lin has been an ultimate team player and just gone at it professionally and improved his weaknesses without throwing a lowry fit. If he took 16 shots he'd at least average 19 just because only those that wear a 23 jersey can stop that first drive.

    i'd like to see Lin and Howard take a couple of more shots per game within the offense.

    To be honest, he is not a full time point guard. Just a part time job.
    Soon he will play off the bench. So that stat doesn't make any sense here.

    At the end of the day, Bev is still the perfect starting PG for this team. His defense in a western conference with a lot of dominate scoring point guards are crucial

    Lilliard, Westbrook, Lawson, Curry, Holiday, Conley, Parker, CP3.

    I know no one can "stop" most of these PGs but Beverley gives up the best chance

    lol pretty sure Lin did better than Bev on Lilliard last night. I'm not saying Bev isn't the better defender - but people are really underrating Lin's defense.

    Glad to see that the Clippers game was just a fluke for Harden, since he showed he has returned to form, playing good defense (2 blocks), playmaking, and driving at will. TOs still a problem though, for Harden and Howard.

    That's probably people's biggest gripe. With big money comes big expectations. 5 million a year is ok with the way he's playing. 15 million next year? That's pretty nuts.

    If he was making Beverly money, i doubt there would be as many skeptics on here.

    Given the schedule (4th in 5 nights, in at 3 a.m.), impressive road win for the Rox tonight.
