    My anger hasn't subsided one bit. I seethe with anger whenever I think about Lin's boneheaded play.

    This loss is on McHale on Lin. McHale waits too long to call a timeout when Portland came rattling back. There was not much ball movement all game and we didn't close out Portland.

    But genuinely speaking, as someone who has had some serious anger management issues in the past, being aggressive toward something that can't be broken isn't a good way to work through it. You'll get used to breaking something to defeat your anger, and the day will one day come where you have to break something and there isn't something around for you to break. That's when you or something you care about can get hurt or destroyed, god forbid.

    It's tough because all you can see is red and you get that awful ringing in your ears. But just close your eyes and count to 10!

    The play that ended the Rockets season. Very fitting it came from Jeremy Lin.

    I'll retract my statement if the Rockets win Game 7. See you, then!

    Technically it's not. You're right. Statistically though, the Rockets are close to dead at this point.

    Way to lose faith in the rest of the team. You claim Jeremy is not the star of the team so why does it end with him?

    Well duh.

    Doesn't change the fact that the series isn't over.

    Reading comprehension, guy.

    Because Game 4 DID end with him turning the ball over. Harden for all his crappy plays last night did what he needed to do to get the Rockets the lead late in the 4th. Dwight made several defensive stops. The team prevented the Blazers from scoring on that possession with under a minute to go. All it takes though is one player to screw up the way Lin did(and for their idiot coach to inexplicably insert him into the game at that juncture) to cost the team a victory and more than likely the entire series.

    She's right.

    Here is a synopsis.

    Game 2: Fouls while down 3 and no need to foul

    Game 3: Almost lost the game by going for a homerun play, misses and batum hits a 3 to sent it to OT, much like the play in game 4

    Game 4: Loses the ball trying to run up the court (god knows why), portland gets it, plays Harden level defense on Williams and gives him a 3.

    Game

    Upon review is looks like Lin knocked the rebound out of Howard's control, too. I guess in some desperate attempt to fix his mistake; he makes another one.
