    If you have to score a ton of points....it means your other members are not doing their job so it doesn't always guarantee a win.....see Melo and the Knicks tonight.

    One of them has already been the 6th man since Game 1 and has been a positive change for the team.

    I do not think Lin is playing his best basketball. His basketball was when he was distributing the ball like a floor general. He may be a better player than he was then, but his style of play is more suited to running a team as a pg.

    Yes. For those who do not agree, go see Yao's comments on Lin starting or coming off the pine.

    Just because Yao agreed with it doesn't mean it's right.

    do you agree that yao is
    1) smart and has good basketball sense
    2) first and foremost wants his former team the rockets to succeed
    3) also wants jlin to succeed

    Sorry but I think Yao knows more about basketball and the Rockets than you do, sir.

    I tihnk Lin and Harden can work well together, but dwight has to take less shots in the post and be more of a defensive presence - i feel like he forces it too much, unless hes having a reall great night
