    What the heck happened to clutchfans? I see people blaming Lin and calling him reckless, but if you actually look at the replay, D Lee was actually locking up/holding Harden's arm. Yet people choose to blame our own player?

    It happened so fast, I don't think there's anything our guys could have done.

    It was a freak accident people, this knee jerk is making you guys look bad. If its anyone's fault, its David Lee's. Locking someone's arm like that is just plain old dirty.

    LOL, I can totally see the same people crucifying Lin, if Thompson drained the open 3.

    When Thomas broke Yao's leg, he didn't get that much hate from "Rockets fans".

    It was unfortunate and probably stupid too, and Lin's hesitation to shoot last night didn't help either. But man, it's like "Finally I can openly launch my hatred towards this Lin guy" kind of party time.

    For those want him gone, for whatever reason, trade deadline has passed, you'd better hope Lin plays well while getting paid by the Rockets 5 mil (or 8 or 15).

    Now to the more important matter, hope Harden is ok, and nothing serious with his elbow. He was the reason we were in the game last night.

    This isn't surprising at all, actually it's been going on for a long time! Lin is extremely polarizing, some people don't like him because of his ethnicity, others because of his faith, and others because of the negative impact on Clutchfans by his idolaters.

    It's a sign of the times where it's very cool to hate, especially over the interwebz, you know the "Internet Warriors", they hide behind their computer and throw piss at everyone, and think they've actually shown bravado....SMH AS WELL

    Since X-rays are negative it's likely he'll be back within 1 month right?

    I don't get it, he's done nothing wrong to get such a huge group of haters. He was undrafted, picked up my warriors, dallas, houston, eventually new york...they let him play and he played well that got his name out there..ny told him to fish a contract, and houston decided to give him that much...he's well spoken, isn't a thug, if ppl really hate on him cuz he's "asian" or he's a believer in "god" then that's ridiculous

    If lin is not to blame.... Who else crashed into harden's elbow??

    Yes i realize it was an accident, but it is still lin's fault.

    I'm not surprised though. Lin has the awareness of a rec league player.

    Source or shut up. Are you Keith Jones?

    It didn't look that bad. He made both free throws and was able to dribble a bit. Hope it is 1-2 weeks thing.

    Freak accident, sh it happens. When you're defensively honed in on a target, it's bound to happen.

    Kinda like how we run in to walls when we're walking & texting. We all do that, right?

    Man freaking lin. Wish we got rondo instead of dribbling like a chicken stopping with two seconds then passing out. Do something for Christ sake.

    James Harden always over exaggerates injuries on the court. If it's a shot to the face, then he's def going to be on the ground rolling around. Bump to the head? He's bent over clutching his dome with both hands while the play goes on down court. That's just what he does, and I'd like to thing that he was again just being overly dramatic last night. I hope anyway.
