    Since his recruitment, he has turned from an underdog to an achiever and now to this hot-shot. Maybe he won't earn his big contract afterall.

    he's looked out of sorts, but he was standing there because he was told to, it was to prevent any sort of back door cut

    Sorry, but it is obvious the McHale has no control over his stars. To be fair, not many head coaches in the league does.

    We are sucking so bad at defending the 3s, just wait till we play the GSW.... Klay Thompson 3.8/6.8 55.9%, AI 2.2/4.6 47.8%, Curry 3.6/7.8 46.2%. Geez would that be fun to watch....

    he definitely thinks he's getting to be too cool for school. Remember vs the Bobcats there was 2-1 fast break and he takes it upon himself to try a behind the back dribble for no reason. It went off the defender's foot and out of bounds and killed the possession.

    Fell asleep so I didn't see it, but damn I'm glad I didn't buy tickets for this game.

    We can't keep starting games with a huge deficit. Asik/Dwight doesn't work.

    If we keep defending the perimeter the way we do, it'll be us whos going to be on the bad end of a record-breaking three-point shots made in a single game :|

    Curry's hurt! But you know Harden will struggle off the ball vs KLay, Rockets struggled against any motion oriented offense.

    Its not just Klay, all SGs have career nights when they play Haren. It happened all last season too. We can hide Haren and switch Bev on to them but Bev getting exposed at the moment. Anyways, early days yet. We might be able to trade Lin for a proven perimeter defender.

    I blame it all on Lin. He did on purpose to help the coach that kept him in the league win. I'm sure he heard about how D12 would've stayed in LA if the coach was Phil Jackson and not D'Antoni. This is a way for Lin to say thanks coach D. I mean cmon only 16 points, when during Linsanity he had 38 against LAL with Bynum on the floor. Totally classless for Lin to play a game like that, more than half the points and half the assist. And i saw that conversation at the game with Dwight and Jeremy went a lil something like this.

    Dwight: " Dude how did you let Blake get open like that"
    Lin: " Uh did you not see my You've Change Bro video? Nash was in that video and my good friend. He only want to give me a hug for how much success the video was"
    Dwight: "But dude were trying to win here"
    Lin: " But dude I come off the bench, tell that to Mchale."
    Dwight:( Like the Adidas ghost hunter commercial) "What was that? Oh Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"
    Dwight: "Dude that remind me of Orlando and LA" "Ahhhhhhhhh"

    I agree. Just give it some time and we will win 2 Championships this year. We are that good.

    Because this Twin tower experiments is not working. We have no spacing on offense and cant rotate on time defensively, when one of or wing players gets broken down.

    What the hell? How did we lose? I went to bed with the lead and LA intentionally fouling.

    Haha you missed the heartbreak. The GARM has exploded.

    D12 missed all his FTs
    Parsons stupid inbounds to Dwight.
    Harden ISOs... FAIL
    Missed defensive assignments resulting in Blake hitting an open 3pt to win the game for LA with 1.5 seconds left.

    Lots of finger pointing and screaming by players and coaches a like (according to cyberx)

    GARM in complete meltdown.

    LOF vs LOH stuff AGAIN!

    Apart from that you didn't miss much.

    Man, I so blame the coaching staff for treating Lin as a whipping boy, leading to everyone thinking Lin's a mess up always messing up every play like they think. It's clear as day how Lin's been treated and it's a shame.

    Lin's fault. As usual.

    Carry on, nothing to see here.
