    Talks cheap....no matter WHERE you are playing you can't continually give up double digit leads. You are already playing 5 on 8. It is just UNREAL to me that every important,significant call has gone against the Rockets. The refs are good for 8-10 pts. Portland's way not counting the LMA push offs on EVERY play.

    Agreed - but stars like LMA and Lillard have actually stepped their games up in the playoffs - if Harden was even playing like his reg season AVERAGE these games wouldn't be close enough for any of the mistakes to matter. This is a young team and the mistakes and boneheaded plays need to stop.
    I think the coaching is one of the main culprits. Like I said, I didn't even say the game and I'm fine with people being mad at Lin and wanting him off the team etc. but don't lose the forest for the trees people. Much bigger changes need to happen than just dropping a 20min per game bench player to get over the proverbial hump.

    Lin is so stupid but he's also extremely unlucky. Everytime he makes a mistake the other team capitalizes on a dagger 3. I almost feel bad for him but I can't. That play was just so dumb. And yes, I know Mo Williams was probably out of bounds.

    I'm burning my nephew's Build-a-Bear of Jeremy Lin in effigy. I've also broken my Lin bobble head. I'm done.

    So you're expecting the refs to bail out the Rockets from Lin's bonehead plays? Is that where we are right now with Lin? Just hoping the refs save him from himself? Lin shouldn't have even been in a position where he could've lost the ball.

    Here are the facts. Of all of highest paid players, Lin is the only one who's not even remotely playing up to his pay in the playoffs. He's also making the most ridiculously stupid and easily preventable mistakes at the worst possible times.

    Dude STFU. Mo was out of freaking bounds. Blame McHale for not calling a timeout before Lin dribbled it, or for not asking the refs to review that Mo was out of bounds. Get a life and get off Lin's nuts. Why you are not mentioning the TO by Bev to end the game idiot? It was a team loss caused by the refs imho.

    Best way to deal with Lin fans is to slap them down then put them on ignore. They have there perception that Lin is flawless and we are all just out to get him, they won't let facts and evidence ruin that.

    You aren't a Lin fan, and if you are I still don't care. I'm a Rockets fan you idiot!

    But trying to blame two losses on Lin is freaking r****ded, which you and others obviously are.

    Have you already accepted the fact that Lin is trash now and totallly worthless and nowhere near players like Lowry or Dragic?

    This works both ways. It's annoying to see people **** on one player (don't get me wrong, he ****ed up) yet completely ignore the flaws of not only the other players but our coach.

    WHY DID MCHALE NOT CALL A TIMEOUT!?!?!?!? Someone answer me please! Is the select button missing on his controller?

    Is it me, or are you nervous every time Lin has the ball? I knew he would make mistake every time he has the ball.

    I am just sad..

    I'm not supporting Lin, but remember this is his first playoffs...he spent last year's playoff on the sidelines with an injury.

    Don't worry, we'll all feel better tomorrow when the NBA issues its apology.
