Lin was plain awful out there but he redeemed himself on that last play with the good hustle. So I ain't mad.
This is my thoughts on him, "He is the Dumbest smart guy I ever seen". How can you mis a lay up in that part of the game? JUST HOLD THE PLAY MORON.... geez unreal.. He is killing me..
What are you talking about? He had a solid 4th quarter, especially at the start, and he had 4 big points in OT. Let's not forget that even guys like Shaq and Duncan have missed point-blank layups at even more crucial times.
Seriously. Awful layup. I can't believe he airballed it at the rim. Oh wait, we're talking about Lin's layup and not Harden's. It was also Lin's fault that we lost that 10-point 4th quarter lead. Why doesn't he block every shot? Useless scrub.
It's wasn't the easiest type "layup" to make. He was going at full speed, and if he was even a 1/2 a second late Aldridge would have blocked the shot. Still he should have made it. I think a better "goof" was the Parsons missed dunk, or Asik's missed layup while standing still right under the hoop.
I think Lin had an ok game tonight. Huge turnover at crunch time and that's really the only thing I can pick on him. Definitely not the worst Rox player out there. As for that layup, I felt it was the right move to do since he has already bypassed his defender and could have made that easy layout he usually makes. I guarantee that if he had made that, no one would dare to even judge his decision to attempt that layup
If Lin didn't rush for that layup, Harden would take a contested shot the next possession and miss it. Then they will make a 3. Same ****.
