    i'd say keep going with what's working. if he's healthy and not hurting, am sure he can just fit in and not have to play more than 20 minutes. the way they're moving the ball around now even Harden has lessened his attempts the past 2 games. keep playing AB and PB, and slowly add Lin back. AB and PB are major spurt guys but have spots where they kind of slow down. without westbrook, all 3 guards are quicker than Fisher and match up well against Jackson especially if all 3 are fresh.

    I forgot Lin is even on this team. Beverley and Brooks are doing just fine.

    fine is an understatement. Brooks is controlling the tempo and they are combining to = a great PG. I love this combo. Takes a lot off of Harden too.

    No we need Lin back in. AB and Bev cannot generate ad dollars for us like Lin so we can sign more free agents.

    That Linjury and his incredible slow healing is starting to bite him in the butt.

    He may be relegated to the bench by the end of the playoffs if he doesn't return and the Rockets (miraculously) win the series.

    Lin should sit out the series and I think he will. Playing him is unfair to other players playing so well.

    There is a good chance he will be traded during summer or early next season, if Bev and Brooks continue to be effective.

    Nobody here cares, people just love to hate on the guy for some reason...I just wish Lin would get traded to a team that needs a facilitating PG, it would make everyone here much happier...

    We're balling right now, but that has more to do with Westbrook being out. Lin looked good in game 2 without Westbrook breathing down his neck.

    Bev is playing great, but take off your shades, Brooks is not playing well...Hope to have Jeremy take his minutes on Friday.
