    If the same people are saying that, maybe they should be applauded for being honest.

    Lin was terrific in the second quarter (6-6 from the field, 4-4 from three for 18 points), but this kind of play (or anything approaching it) has been extremely rare. Doesn't take a hater to note that.

    guaranteed lin will get to about 25 pts and mchale will take him out the rest of the game.

    Let's see what they do to try and slow down Faried's rim runs after the half.

    Really disappointing D especially interior. We knew the symptom was there in the lakers, but damn they have not picked it up this game.

    Really good to see Lin playing well. His in the flow of the game and i feel his just playing his natural game (not overthinking)

    It will be wasted effort from Lin. So when Lin shows up, everyone else doesn't? When everyone else shows up, Lin doesn't. SMH...

    Poor transition defense so far. Hope we pick it up the 2nd half.

    Somebody else needs to step up. Lin has 18 pts at HT. Stay aggressive and keep shooting.

    Jones needs to wake up on D. All the points Faried has scored has been due to him out-hustling our bigs.

    agreed, it's not that people hate lin it's just frustrating that he is so inconsistent. he'll have a 25 or 30 pt game only to have 3 or 4 in a row and average 8 pts.

    Harden and Parsons will play better in the 2nd half

    Front court defense is atrocious (Jones)

    Bench needs to be solid in the 2nd half

    Didn't expect Harden to make 0 shots in the 1st half. He will have a big 2nd half though.

    I don't know about Lin flatlining in the 2nd half.. I just saw the Linsanity Doc and after Lin hit that last 3 he had the same death glare that he toted when he was tearing through teams then.

    **wishful thinking**

    Just keep shooting.
