    Yeah right Jeremy wanted to bounce his face off of Harden's elbow. This post is beyond stupid. It's one thing to hate. It's another thing to just straight out lie. Either that are you have a ****ing stigmatism.

    I only needed to watch it once to see Lin never took his eye off his man and never saw Harden or his elbow.. Yeah Jeremy went after Hardens elbow with his face. Stupid stupid people.

    Like I said I only needed watch it once and I could see it was absolutely unintentional. If anything Hardens arm should not have been locked on Lee but neither one is at fault. Open your eyes this time and watch.

    I created the gif but I watched the original video and it is easy to see Lin was doing his job. Any other comments to the contrary are stupidity.

    I agree. But this is an important thread. People want to know how Harden is doing.

    For the Record Beverly said Harden is fine and will play Sunday.

    Now you can lock it.

    Harden's just putting a hand on him to keep track of where he is. Everyone does that when the man you're defending doesn't have the ball.

    I don't understand how people are just straight up blaming Lin and not looking at Lee at all. If Lee isn't hooking onto Harden's arm, Lin still runs through, but Harden's arm would just move forward with Lin. Lee's hooking basically caused not only Harden's injury, but also Lin getting clotheslined. I guess Lin haters wouldn't care about Lin's safety though.

    It amazes me that someone wouldn't know that what Harden was doing is standard operating procedure on defense. Also, I agree that Lee hooking Harden's arm was the root cause of the injury, but Jeremy could have paid a bit more attention to where he was going. As I said earlier, somewhere, **** happens. It was an accident.

    Yeah, no.

    you're basically saying that Lin had time to;

    1)Notice Harden's arm
    2)Deliberately run into it with his face

    1. It was unintentional
    2. Lin should have had his arms raised if he intends to run between players or fight through screens, since he could easily have hurt himself as well. You always need your hands ready to push hands or players out of the way or to protect yourself should a screener pop out all of a sudden.

    In the end, nobody got hurt. Harden at worse will miss the Phoenix game, and Lin would likely have gone through the tape already to see how he could be more careful next time on the court.

    There's something I really like about this pic. Harden being his Harden cool self -- welcoming the new kid to Harden's school.

    But then i noticed -- is that Harden's hyperextended right arm that Jordan iz pulling behind Harden??

    Sorry Lin fan. Yao Ming was the first Asian superstar and clutchfans loves Yao .

    Yao never ran through mcgradys elbow, if he did, mcgradys arm would be detached.

    Lin had at least 2 seconds to adjust. The way you say it makes it look like hes got a pirates eyes.
