Only superstars get superstar calls. Lin is not a superstar. Howard just needs to keep trying to hammer it home. That fail hook off a deep post is getting us nowhere.
Lin getting all the hate as usual while Parsons gets a pass. Parsons is no doubt the worst player for the Rockets tonight.
WTF? You posted this: It's all Lins fault.. Nobody else screwed up at times in the game. Makes alot of sense.... Yeah if Lin made that layup, Harden wouldn't have made that TO in OT right? Well if Lin didn't get the steal and assist, Daniels wouldn't have made the 3. Same ****, different toilet. You can't have it both ways.
I agree he is an up and down player but you have to factor in how low his usage is and he virtually has no plays that are run for him. You have to at least agree that he is a better at running an offense then Beverley but when they are on the court together most of the time it is Beverley who runs the offense. This is what I mean when Lin is not being correctly utilized on this team. Put it this way if Harden wasn't on this team which players value to this team rises enormously? I believe it's Lin, hes the only other guard on the team who can create his own shot and run a team. Harden on this team almost makes Lin redundant.
*snicker* Are you another one of those idiots that try to compare/relate Lin to Harden? Harden has done more for the team outside this series than Lin has ever done. Harden is struggling with his shot right now, but he will get it back. He's proven that time and time again. All Lin has proven is he is incredibly up and down in the same freaking game.
You are seriously dumb... If Lin didn't fail in those critical moments of the game, we would have won. The fact that he bailed out Harden near the end does not change that or make it go away, it just makes his failures more bearable.
Selection bias. Whatever suits your agenda, right? Harden has proven time and time again he disappears in the playoffs. Who cares about the regular season? He has under performed this series. Nobody gives a crap about anything that's outside of this series. That's why "NBDL" Daniels is the hero tonight.
I'm celebratin like a mofo tomorrow. And no, it wouldn't make anyone feel better if "Parsons or Beverley blah blah...." because nobody counts a single player on a team's points except Lin fans. Plus it was his fault we went into overtime and almost lost. Those 7 points were all make up for screw ups, guilt-inspired, I'm about to become a punching bag, panic points. Adios! Party time! Woooohoooo!!!!

Logic should be consistent, but your logic is not. But then you're a known Lin hater. Blame Lin for almost losing the game, but give him credit for the steal and assist to win the game. They cancel eachother out.
Right back at you with your Lin crush. I will take someone who fades in the playoffs sometimes over someone who basically never shows up the majority of the time during the playoffs game in, game out. Lin has been complete garbage as well in his 6th man role during the playoffs. Harden has too, but the difference is, I have far more confidence in Harden turning it on than Lin.
My logic is consistent. You are just dumb. One hustle play doesn't cancel out all the dumb **** Lin did the entire game.
All the dumb ****? Let's go tick for tack then. What other boneheaded play did Lin have in the game? He had 1 turnover, in the same spot Harden had his. It's possible there was a wet spot on the court. He scored 4 pts in OT. Got hit in the face by LMA and still hit his FTs. Hit a midrange shot just inside the free throw line. Overall, he made more plays to help us win then lose. Give me your examples.
CometsWin is a known Lin hater. He also hated Yao Ming Lovers and thought Yao Ming was overrated. What a loser.
