That could work if we're facing small backcourts. Otherwise, maybe more minutes for Delfino at the 2, and use Terrence Jones as a backup forward?
Lin shoots like he's guessing. I still don't see anything too special in him. That last year of his deal is going to be an expiring deal for someone else, at this rate. We need a second star more desperately.
Lin lacks confidence, that comes with more playing time and shoting more shots in the gym. Ray Allen get's up a 1,000 a day. It's sad to see Lin miss the whole rim on wide open 3's. This team is dependent on shooters, as they say a make or miss league and we've been missing a lot these last 7.
Instead of complaining about Harden, Lin fans will complain about Kobe. Instead of complaining about Toney Douglas taking Lin's minutes it will be about how he has to be a backup bench player behind Nash. Yeah right, I highly doubt it.
Rox 12-3 Lin 15/7.5 usage 22% Rox 1-8 Lin 10.6/4.5 usage 16% AND Lin and Harden need help from the Front Court on Offense and on DEFENSE Rockets have the bottom 3 worse rotating PFs in the NBA
Lin has to play agressive, I dont understand why he is being so passive. The way he is playing right now, he shouldnt even be on the court, he is contributing almost nothing
Mchale is insisting that Lin contributes nothing... Not a joke, not sure why, but that is what's going on. Listen whatever it's clear now that this is heading towards a tank year and lottery.
The thread was already buried so I didn't get to respond to this: 1st and foremost, the only thing I said was "I wish we still had Dragic. If his stats last year translated to this year, we'd be in a better position." I'm not talking about/making a comparison to Lin's performance last year. I've got reason to believe Dragic's performance would've carried over since he was on this team last year.
Whatever. I'm not gonna do you the favor of showing you the error of your line of thinking. Wallow in your ignorance.
If we make the playoffs our first rounder goes to Atlanta. We keep our first if we miss the playoffs.
I agree with you on that... Dragic knows the system and it would be his 3rd year as A Rocket so I can see the Rockets doing a hell of a lot better than what the Suns are doing right now.. Where does that leave Lowry though??? Is he off the bench or starting??? If they still had Adelman as coach I can see them being hell of a lot better than the Twolves this season for sure..
if you're a so call "lin fan" only, please stand up.... not sure how many times i seen this term mentioned in this thread.
no point of talking about dragic and lowry folks..... we all know they're both better than any of our pg's we got now.
