    Does he come to Beverley's rescue when people criticize him? I don't recall Clutch getting into such debates.

    Lin's fan base is by far the most pathetic in all of sports.

    Yes to follow up the refs were very inconsistent in calling their fouls. They really started swallowing their whistles on the Rox after they blew the obvious D12 goaltend and the arena went livid for 5 mins.

    Also, Harden played a ton without subbing out. I have no idea why they kept him and him in so long without rest.

    Because for a long time, Harden was the only one who could hit the broad side of a barn. Without Howard on the court, teams are able to patrol the perimeter and not worry about getting beat on the inside. Harden is really the only player on the team who can create his own shot consistently.

    The Rockets just won an important game on the road and yet you are obsessing over Lin. I get it, he's your guy, but this is a Rockets forum. At some point, the team take precedence over the individual.

    Harden draws double team and is the only player capable of creating his own shot (Lin was struggling yesterday).

    It's no surprise that even though Harden played 42 minutes, he had the largest +/- with +19 on the court. The team struggled a lot in those 6 minutes that he didn't play.

    Until Lin gets healthy, Harden will have to shoulder heavy minutes.

    Hubie Brown and Mike Breen said the shot was a few feet from going in so it wasn't a goaltend. I wish they would've replayed it for us.

    Trade Lin and with Beverley and AB.

    Beverley can help take the team deep into the Playoffs like Raymomd Frlton did for the Knicks. Beverley is our Raymond Felton!!!

    Trade Lin!!

    I usually HATE +/- for single player performance...but man was it telling the truth last night.

    Every time Harden went off the floor whatever lead/Momentum the Rockets had vanished. When he came back in...the Rockets would then get the lead right back.

    One thing that frustrates me about this game is that Dwight should have had 30 last night. No one was really stopping him and his post game seems to have improved so far this month.

    At best the Lin only Fans are annoying but pathetic, I mean come on King 1. Try leaving the Troll cave every once in awhile. You just turn off your computer and presto, no LOF in sight or maybe just maybe, they have you imprison in their cell which you can't get out? Wait a minute King 1 is telling us something, LOF kidnapped King 1, someone get him out!!!

    The way these fanboys are flooding the GARM, I often find myself skipping over and ignoring entire threads or the entire GARM, or having to wade through pages of trash for that one comment by a great poster like Deckard or JuanValdez that makes the effort worth it. It is pretty simple to ignore the flotsam, but it means losing out on what has been the best darn sports site on the interwebs.

    People are idiots if they think that the massive spectacle distraction of Lin pulling and Omer Asik won't Scuttle this team "contending" run. Your only hope is that Lin quietly takes this reaming of his career silently. He is Meek enough so might. But woe be to the rockets if Lin combines the fury and intensity of his "LOF" army with the media power of ESPN in a public feud. It would be ruinous for any kind of deep playoff run. Why take the chance?

    Lin's body language already suggests he is getting tired of this schtick. How many more 14 minute games and being squealed and screamed by Harden and Parson do you think he's gonna tolerate before he gets fed up and unleashes his agent, PR machine massive unreasonably passionate and devoted fan base.

    So is your plan to just keep making stuff up and spamming it from thread to thread?
