    Clearly folks here have not seen the Durvasa post regarding to player's consistency through the course of the season. Lin was actually the most or one of the most consistent players in terms of game to game performance. People are so quick to knee jerk when a player has one bad game or one GOOD game (Delfino). Gotta look at the big picture guys...Morey does.

    Your back up pg is your back up pg for a reason. He played crappy against okc and played well tonight...players are capable of playing better from one night to the next.

    If Lin was no good, he wouldn't have been given a $25m/3yr contract by Morey, the NY people? well sure, same as the Chicago people told us Asik wasn't much good, and the OKC people told us Harden's wasn't anything more than a backup.

    What we should be celebrating is the team bball by houston. even with a poor game from lin and a mediocre game from harden, by their standards. we beat one of the best teams from the east by 10 on the road.

    I wonder if Kobe still thinks they're going to make the playoffs?

    Great job from the bench tonight. 33 points and most of these guys haven't played much this year.

    Sam Mitchell after NYK got stomped by Indy: "NYK left their PG in Houston."

    Plus, we are short handed and had to play the 11th guy on the bench extensively.

    You're weak, got your tail between your legs that's why.. LOH Legion won't be very happy seeing you come home this early.

    I am pretty sure the next 12 games are against teams we are clearly better than.

    Lin's inconsistency is going to cost us in the playoffs. But obviously the counter-argument to that is he plays great defense and defense is extremely important in the playoffs. We need someone that can hit the 3 at a high clip at the PG position. I say we call up Andrew Goudelock, the former Laker in the D-League right now. Of course someone like Jason Kidd or Jeff Teague, or Steph Curry would be awesome, but thats not gonna happen and I can't think of any other decently-priced PG that would come here to be a backup.

    you don't watch the games.
    IF they didn't have bad night, the ROX wouldn't lose 7 in a roll.

    It used to be the LOFs that irked me before, but now I can't really stand the LOHs. Seriously, Lin inconsistent? Did you guys even watch the last few games? It's just an off night for him, same with Harden and Parsons.
