    I'm not a LOF. See my sign-up date, was a Rocket fan befofe Lin and will be a Rockets fan after Lin.

    But I honestly think that Lin may need to be the guy to keep, and Harden may be the guy to leave.

    It's more like they don't want to use him as playmaker.

    Come on, guys, but why is he legit? I don't know. Fill me in. He called the Howard trade?

    Certainly primary insiders do not leak this stuff. It's bad for the team. Would have to be a friend of a secondary insider at best, it seems to me.

    That would make the PG position worse doesnt it?

    The camera would have been on them if they were over there yelling and screaming. And the commentators would have said something, don't you think.

    Yes, my guess would be that the experimentation has been a distraction and is disruptive of the chemistry. Or maybe he prefers a pass first PG to start so he could get the ball more and develop better chemistry.

    I just looked at the part where they were walking off court. They weren't yelling then. Both of them just seemed to be saying "What the hell happened?"

    Howard was in his face after the game. Not belligerent, but certainly reprimanding.

    The reason we lost that game was because between two PGs, one of them let Steve Blake get to the perimeter and shoot a wide open 3 pointer.

    If he is really frustrated (and I still have my doubts about OP) then I bet it has more to do with the defense than anything honestly. PGs light us up and I bet Dwight doesn't love the fact that he is always leaving his man to try to stop dribble penetration that the PGs didn't even slow down.

    Bev suppose to switch on that pick by Nash. And that is not considered throwing your teammate under the bus. You reaching pimping.

    He seems to be legit in that he works in an agent's office or something. However, I'm not sure all the information he gives us is 100% true. Some of it seems either exaggerated or incredibly vague.

    Case in point: IF the Twin Towers experiment doesn't' work, the Rockets MAY look at Lamarcus Aldridge.

    That's a Ric Bucher line.

    come on guys lets try to look at this more objectively...

    1. it only been 6 games into the season. why would Howard be impatient? Wouldn't you at least see if you can fix this by mid season? its not like our PGs has big heads and cannot be talked to.
    2. We have 3 PGs in this team. 4 if you count harden. which one is he talking about.
    3. When he said "he isn't thrilled with the PG situation" could it be because we dont have a solid starting PG? Mchale is still on the experimentation stage?

    1. come on, Lin getting yelled at in the locker room 1 out of 6 games does not equate to Howard not being happy.



    CyberX is someone related to the lakers organization... Can't really take this guy seriously... maybe on lakers trades but not on Rockets locker room rumors...

    We need to just make Harden the PG and get a complimenting SG and PF.
    Saying Harden is a SG is like saying Duncan is a PF :grin:

    No. We would still have our starting PG in Haren. Just need a 3pt shooter like Steve Kerr beside him.

    Wowww, D12 is back to himself.

    Not a good sign for Rockets. D12 is complaining. Harden is ISO as usual. McHale is out of the control with some Star. Twin tower does not work. Parsons tries much handling the ball. No more smooth attack as previous. And the locker room would be probably lit up.

    What is the problem, Houston? Anyone stands out and take that?

    Thanks. That LMA claim is meaningless. "IF . . ." Watch, I can do it too:

    "Just heard from my guy that if Parsons doesn't step it up they're going to package him with Lin to one of the EC cusp teams. Give it fifteen more games."

    I'm sorry but aside from Chris Paul, which other PG guarded by lin has lighten us up?

    As I recall, Nash only has 12 points, lillard only 6 points on lin, Calderon 0 points, Jazz jamal tinsley 0 points

    you mean opposing scrub SGs been lighting us up?

    I watched the entire game and didnt such act. But I guess the OP's source was sitting right on the bench.
