    :rolleyes: i wonder just what kind of reaction you hope to get when you post condescending bs like this. are you a "real rockets fan" who thought Yao only got all star starting spot because of China?

    Lin may be sucking bad. But we ain't going nowhere with Westbrook being healthy. It could have easily been 0-4.

    So, since you joined in 03, have you ever wished continuing injury on one of your players or is Lin the first one?

    We need Lin back for Game 6, Bev and AB have no assists, not getting other players involved.

    I want Lin only at 100%.

    I'm sure he's at 99.999999%. So he must sit.

    if lin does comeback he should be the back up for the time being, especially with the way bev is performing. Why are people complaining no westbrook? When he was on the floor isn't that when lin shrunk up and bev came in with tenacity to change the pace the first game?

    Are you serious? No assist means we need Lin back?

    We're better without Westbrooks. Any way, good to win.

    ????


    There is a difference. What AB and Bev did was open the paint with their penetration. Their passes weren't direct assists but if they are passed off more than once it doesn't get credited towards the assist.

    You sum up a LOF perfectly LOL.

    You must be trolling. THe assists were spread out, so the whole team played...whats the term called...OH YEAH. TEAM BALL. GOOD BALL MOVEMENT. Defense was really good tonight too, supposedly our weakness the entire season. Props to players and coaching staff alike for working it out.

    We really had no flow in the last quarter and we can not expect to shoot 40% 3-pointers again. I wish Lin would come back for game 6.

    Lin will be back I bet. Possibly in a lesser role, but still.

    He's trolling, bro. Dude's straight hating on Lin in all his other posts. Every comment I've read from him is how Lin's only a Rocket cuz he brings in Asian money.

    Yeah our late game offense is worrying. It's basically dribble then chuck up a shot. 100% healthy Lin would fix that, but anything less than 100% and I hope he keeps his butt glued to the bench.

    I hope Lin isn't ready ever again for the Rockets. The team has played much better with him sidelined. Lin is now an expendable asset. Beverly and Brooks ftw!

    Beverley and Brooks are doing great in the backcourt. As much as I like Lin and believe in his potential, I would not have a problem if Rockets decides to trade Lin for a PF in the off season.

    But looking down the stretch, Lin has the highest ceiling, IF he can develop a steady shot and IF he keeps out of injuries..he could be a core piece in a championship team.
    Beverley's ceiling I see more like a RIch man Chalmers, a great puzzle piece in a championship team with a stable core.

    Anyways, the young guys had proven me wrong all season long, as long as Rocket players they all have my full support
