Jeremy Lin is a large reason of why we lost this series

    I'm interested into your logic and the facts you are using from the series to support this claim.

    So averaging 26/7/5 for the entire series is playing like crap? Hmmmm got it.

    Game 1. No need to explain
    Game 2. Mediocre play, didn't contribute much. Only played a half, and had to rely on a rusty Aaron Brooks which pretty much cost the game. We lost by 3, so we very well could've won.
    Game 3. Played and was a completely liability. We lost by 2 or 3, his play very well could've cost us the game.
    Game 4. We won.
    Game 5. We won.
    Game 6. Played and didn't do anything again.

    Injury or not, if he had played even average, we would've won this series.

    So yes, he is a major reason, whether you like it or not, whether it is fair or not.

    You conveniently ignore his FG%, or the turnovers, 10 in one game I believe? Or getting destroyed by Derek Fisher in game 6.

    I'm not interested in laying blame. Harden is young, he'll grow. I'm just sick of the endless dumping and trolling by people like you on lin.

    Give a HEALTHY Lin the keys to the team like Harden has and minutes to match and I'm sure he'll have no problem putting up some pretty impressive stats.

    Do you really want to know what is the real reason why we lost game 6?

    Let me tell you: Kevin Martin

    Game 5 he scored 3 points
    Game 6 he scored 25 points

    Someone on the forum said it earlier before game 6; he was saying something like what if this, what if that, blah, blah, blah, and one of the ifs is What if KM scored more than 3 points in game 5? We could have lost game 5. So he was right on. KM had an off night on Monday (1-10 something like that). And KM bounced back on Friday.

    In the 13 minutes Lin was on the floor in Game 6, he let Kevin Martin score 25 points. What a scrub.

    You are such a shameless and dishonest troll. Thanks for reminding me why I put you on my ignore list.

    He did have a poor FG%, but he played well throughout the series. He had one high turnover game, but the others were much lower.

    Please point out the posts where I'm "dumping and trolling" on Lin.

    All I know is that we had a nice comfortarble lead then Lin is inserted in the lineup and our double digit lead dwindles. He brought nothing of value to the team. He got his shot disrespectfully rejected by Collison.

    All while I was pleading to my television to take him out of the game! He's hurting the team. Brooks was instant offense off the bench. Why ruin such a good thing?

    With the exception of last night, Lin didn't play any of the 4th quarters particularly game 2 and 3. If your logic is that his not scoring more earlier in the game cost us the game because the end result was only a 3 point difference, then you can nick-pick on any one who played even a single minute. Game 2, loss because Sefalosha hit a 3 with Perkins hold. Game 3, loss because miracle Durant 3. Period.

    Quite frankly I thought Bev was the reason the game was lost yesterday. Starting PG who couldn't stay on the floor because of foul trouble, getting destroyed on defense, scored 8 pts on 4 of 11 shooting (including 2 in garbage time), and had 0 assists. Clutch wants to point out Lin had 0 assists in 13 minutes last night on the front page of Clutchfans, but neglects to mention the stat line of Bev, Houston's starting PG next year.

    Listen, we get it you, guys don't like Asian people.

    No, stupid is blaming this series loss (which if people have forgotten, was a 1 vs 8 matchup) on a guy who was injured halfway through game 2 and didn't play much after that.

    Utter garbage. Double digit lead my ASS, Lin was brought in because Reggie Jackson single-handedly cut the lead from 10 to 2. And we never recovered from there. Get your facts straight. At least do some research before posting.
