    Oh my gosh, that is really hilarious. He reads this board and follows Lin so closely. Kind of pathetic.

    don't think anyone is stupid enough to take preseason games seriously to doubt anyone. the "doubters" are just the better Lin "followers" from New York

    Wow WTF is this ****, why am I being grouped with GlenRice and Sigmund lmfao

    I don't dislike Lin in anyway, I just like trolling LOF's

    In fact I do remember getting into some flame wars with GlenRice over Lin back in the day

    i just re-watched the replays and although it's just preseason, it's a bit disturbing that Mchale really has no set plays. he seems to be doing what he did in Minnesota with Kevin Love.. getting the ball into the big guys no matter what. Mchale if like a big man's version of Dantoni. this won't turn out well.

    Most Knicks fans love Lin. Just read the reaction they had on blogs like knickerbloggers or posting+toasting when the Knicks didn't match.

    I saw Dragic at the All-Star game in NBA 2k13 'Create a Legend' mode. Heheh, gonna be disappoint if that really does happen.
    (I was using Lamb n the Rockets).

    It's hard to judge a team in preseason, since sometimes the goal isn't to win games, but to experiment?

    If they wanted to see how the starting lineup looks with Lamb and Jones (who they want to eventually start? Martin traded?), the answer is not good. Lin was terrible, but rookies weren't doing him any favors.

    If they wanted Lin to work on off-ball movement and for Asik to work on offense, good because they sure as heck need it.

    Toney Douglas got the night off to give Machado a good look. His lack of defense would kill Rockets in real games.

    Its just a bad game for the Rockets against an well oiled team that has tons of experience. At the beginning, everyone on the Rockets starting lineup was struggling. I think they kind of suffocated Lin in this game. Every time he drives to the basket, he can only pass the ball but when he tries to take the shot in the lane, the defense collapse onto him. He needs to gain some confidence on his jump shot as time goes on because when the season starts, it will be hard for him to drive to the basket all the time.

    Until he can hit open jumpshots these sort of games will be a regular occurrence.


    No idea why we didn't keep Dragic.
