    Yea, Chris Paul still did his thing, but Bev at least tried on D. Refs are gonna give Paul 15 a night on calls and then he'll get his ten assists, just so as long as he doesn't beat you alone I'm cool with it.

    McHale should have started the 3rd quarter with DMo and shoul have given more minutes to Hamilton.

    Jones can't defend big PF. That is not just this game but the whole season.

    Ah, that is true. Paul is a master, but despite that he doesn't have a game winning flop like Harden so it's a push maybe? Anyway, with practice come perfection and seems like Harden is always honing his craft. His subtle head jerks have improved a lot this year!

    No it doesn't. It doesn't say ANYTHING ABOUT HOW WELL HE PLAYED. Buy I wasn't commenting on how well Lin played right? I quoted a post saying Lin entered the game and the Clippers ran away with the game. If +/- say ANYTHING it says that when Lin was in the game the Clippers were not taking leads.

    yeah Lin lost the game, I mean he's only freaking +2.

    Whole starting squad sucked balls and you all talking about Lin's 18 min? One hand you say Lin sucks, on the other hand you expect him to save the team and pull out a W out of his ass? LOL

    :rolleyes: 10 TOs from the starting backcourt and this is all you can focus on?

    The 10 TOs from our starting guards and Collison 19 pts on 8-14 shooting are the biggest reasons why we lost tonight. Very similar to previous loss to the Clippers. TOs and their shooting guards goes off on high % shooting.

    OK, you can GTFO now- no one gives a s**t about your clippers here- go find an LA board to blow your wad all over.

    If you can't see just how poorly he played (and has been playing) then you TRULY ARE a LOF.

    I'm sick of the experiment. Let Linsanity go somewhere else and suck the life out of a fanbase.

    Ive tried to give Lin the benefit of the doubt but he's getting worse. we need someone else who can take care of the ball in there. Andre Miller would be great ( if he hasn't signed somewhere else already).

    Lin didn't lose the game. The game was not won at the end with the starters. :confused:

    The game was lost when you had JH on Collison. JH simply can't guard Collison. Too quick for him.

    Should have gone small and put Lin in. Well, I guess right now the coaching stuff has no confidence on him at all.

    You forgot, he brings the intensity, the toughness, and other intangibles. And he also knows how to protect the ball and doesn't make boneheaded plays. And he doesn't look like a deer staring at the headlight.

    Disagree.

    Collison and Paul made two game changing flops today, and neither even qualified as fouls (whereas Harden's did).

    So you need to give your players credit. They know how to get shot.
