    Coach's trust. And Lin's confidence.

    Bev's defense is OK tonight. Not a great job but not terrible either. Paul has a slightly off night.

    Is Lin pulling an Asik? Is the trade talk really affecting him that much? He was cut twice before. I don't get it. He doesn't seem to be interested.

    no i dont think they played to their ability, but that's not what you were talking about. ah whatever bro, tonight was a total suckjob by everyone in the starting lineup. eff this lin sucks, bev sucks noise from every game thread. we got killed by TOs tonight, and a bad night from Parsons. pure and simple

    Harden gets plenty of screens. Jones is the only guy who sets half-assed screens.

    THE ANSWER let LIN be one of the closers again why has McHale cut Lin's minutes the last few games. MY god he let Parsons play in the 4th.

    The answer is actually very simple: We do not play PnR.

    Not bitter at all - Lin is getting the minutes he deserves right now - but for a true contender, Bev is not good enough and neither is Lin as a starter. Either guy coming off the bench, fine. To win a title, you need ANY one of your starters to be able to have a big game as you see tonight, Harden shut down in 2nd half, Parsons shut down all game - Bev poses no threat to them on that end so we go through these droughts and the spacing is screwed.

    I would disagree.

    Rocket's this year should be SIGNIFICANTLY better due to Dwight, last year the last game we played against the Clippers Harden was out and Chris Paul was healthy. Bear in mind Riddick is out we really have no excuse to lose to them 3 games straight

    Tell me what roster changed caused the Clippers to be better than adding Dwight Howard and having James Harden on our team this year?

    Lin had the green light to do whatever to save those loosing Knicks. Remember they were awful.now he's timid.

    You don't call out flopping when you have the BIGGEST flopper in the game.

    Lin is not in our long-term plan. So why play him?

    Parsons is consistent! Lin plays like a scared little boy. You can't have that as a closer. Plain and simple. He's always lost out there. Dude has been garbage the last couple of weeks
