ClutchFans Game Thread: Sixers @ Rockets 3/27/2014

LOL.. so you think Violet Palmer isn't the worst ref in NBA history? (wow) The only one who ever came close to her was Dick Bevetta.. and that didn't happen until he was old as Moses and could no longer keep up to the speed of the play well enough to make acceptable calls. But hey.. He was "accepted into a job and we should just "accept" it.

Do me a favor, google Violet Palmer's name and worst ref see what comes up.. then get back at me.

Her crappy calls have NOTHING to do with Lin, Yao, Rockets, or anyone else.. she just flat sucks.

 

When did I ever mention you talking about both players.. I talked about you always just posting about Lin so try again.

 

Anderson only 30 pts. I predicted it wrong.

 

1) I never said he will stay like that forever, just that he is a scrub right now.
2) Can anyone honestly say he can serve as our backup from what we have seen out of him with playoffs looming so close?

 

Let's see... I posted about Asik's miss, Harden's triple double, Parsons playing too long, and PBev's injury along with posting a few times about Lin when he was busy, and only once in reference to Canaan which YOU quoted in your dumb rant about me posting too much about Lin, so please, do try again!

 

The bench was pretty terrible at the end without Lin. I don't mind Hamilton for most part - but none of those guys can create their own shot...

Was our bench better last year? I like Delfino

 

Yeah, I would have just cut Canaan and signed Jimmer. That dude can shoot and run the offense.

Lin was cut from multiple teams his rookie year.. He wasn't even good enough to be kept on as a D league player by multiple teams. Kudos to him though, he made the most out of his opportunity in the media market of NY while playing for a desperate team looking for anything positive to print.. and he turned that into a big pay check.

Now he looks like he's just a ho hum PG again. The 3 PGs Houston had on the roster before him were better PGs than he is now (AB, Lowry, and Dragic.. you know what, I'll make it 4.. Rafer Alston as well) So can we please stop acting like Lin will ever live up to his contract and stop acting like Houston isn't looking to move him out as soon as possible and looking at any future option ATM.

 

The freaking Mavs is losing to the Clips.

It maybe a good thing because the Blazers win today.

 

19-12 v Miami
21-9 v Spurs
16-13 v OKC
21-14 v Spurs
10-16 v Spurs

He had 7-4 in limited minutes vs Indiana recently, but was rested because we blew them away.

He hasn't yet played well against the Clippers, but he has only really played 1 game against them (I think?).

I only looked at the teams with better records than us. And sure, he has failed a few times against those guys (or had 'just average' games) - but he can certainly play well against elite teams IF those 5 teams with better records than us are the elite teams??

So now I have to quote ever single post you make about Lin to prove that you are a LOF?

Personally I'm not LOF or LOH.. I'm just tired of the crap.. tired, tired of the crap.

 

This exactly my problem of jones. He needs to pass the ball alittle bit

 

LOL you are a hilariously dumb person, I hope you realize that. By most LoF's standards, I am a LoH. What a chuckle I got out of that one though. Welcome to my Ignore list!

 

Thanks for adding me to it.. Coming from you, it's a badge of honor.

 

Jeremy got 2 TOs. Fail!

Ooops... Just joking.

Anyway, good job by the whole team. I hope PBev is alright. I think Parsons should rest a bit more. He needs to recuperate properly for the playoffs.

 

to be fair, tonight was the first time i saw chen make a positive lin post and you flamed him for it, i got a good laugh

 

Yeah I was wondering if it's even in our best interest to pass the Clippers. I would rather play Portland than anyone else right now, and I'd rather play the Spurs than the Thunder in round 2.
