    Even if he's injured I don't feel bad for him. This is the NBA if you are really that hurt don't play. He's using the Bible instead of training and a nutritionist. Lin this season is worst than last year. It's like he forgot how to play altogether. Rox need to think of something quick.

    Coach had no confidence in Hamilton. I am extremely disappointed with Jones and Lin.

    this is scary because basically you are saying we need a pg. they should start canaan but that would kill lins confidence.

    Half court basically starts off as iso and stays that way if the opposing defense is good enough.

    I'm pretty sure T-Jones wasn't playing tonight.

    No, he's just getting the most blame, and rightfully so. His performance was so poor tonight relative to his position and expectations.

    It is the same game when Lin returned to the starting lineups in Dec.

    The starting lineups do need more spacing for Lin and Harden driving into the lane.

    I am sure something will be done once Beverley's appointment with the knee specialist is done on Monday.

    I had to leave after they built that nice lead. I come back, and the lead is gone... Yup, this definitely sounds like the 2012-2013 Rockets; build a huge lead, lose it at the end and lose. This was with no Blake too...

    I know right. Like if you compare this year's stats to last years you can totally see he's regressed... Oh wait...

    i was talking about the htown chat stream going on during the game....and i don't have to believe because i saw Casspi playing lights out with my own eyes shooting 3's dunking over people, now he can't do any of those things.

    I think Rafer might still have some game in him. He plays hustle street ball besides some coaching right? Why not let Rafer Alston suit and play if Bev is out. He can't be worst than Lin.

    Did you see Doc Rivers stand up to Big Baby and send him back to the locker room? McHale would never do anything like that or even stand up to the players on this team and verbally hold them accountable for poor play.

    You're right it wasn't all Lin's fault. Overall the team did not play at our standard. Ignore the people who who lays ALL the blame on Lin, because they need something to point the finger and his quite an easy target. Also it's kind of hard to post and not include Lin in these thread since his always the centre topic in these threads.

    Having said that, Lin is not immuned to criticism...he didn't play at his standard tonight and should be righlty criticised in a fair manner.

    It's ok tjones had a bad day. He is a good player. But Lin is just terrible. He should not start.
