    This.

    Even tonight I see Terrence frikin Jones running the ball up, looking off Lin. Then next possession it's Parsons. Then it's Harden. Hell, even D-Mo was bringing it up.

    Lin is most effective in transition and pushing the ball but that part of his game is totally nullified by every player having the green light to be a PG on this team.

    If that was going to happen it would have by now, they don't have it in them. Not yet anyway. When really tested they usually fade.

    Dwight ALWAYS struggles with true 7 footers or defensive big men. Let's all not forget how we criticized him every time he came to town vs Yao

    7/36 in the second half…

    McHale is lost at the moment.

    Chuck is hammering Rockets at the moment.

    We should avoid OKC at all cost in the playoffs.

    We need a true point guard.

    Hey Daryl, you said we don't have the third star on our team.

    Are you sure about the first two? What New Age is this? We looked better last season.

    Dwight looked a little bit old tonight. Omer, wherefore art thou?

    Durant must have sold his soul to the Devil, to be that good.

    regardless, putting Lin back in was useless. He had 4 minutes to do something and that isn't enough time to build a rhythm. terrible substitutions

    This thread should be enshrined in the Clutchfans hall of fame.

    Then a trivia question asked to see if we can tell when the first half ended and the second half began.

    The players don't trust each other, there is no leadership on the floor and McHale is a failed coach.

    I gave Lowry crap for his attitude, I was wrong, Kyle is one smart MFer, he saw how inept McHale was and couldn't stand it.

    Even if this team had a "true" point guard they wouldn't be given the sole reigns at PG. It's just coaching philosophy. Even if Rondo was on this team the same crap would be happening.

    Against the Thunder, we need a 4 that can space the floor. Ibaka is too good of a shot blocker. Did Casspi even saw the floor in the 2nd half?
