    AB is a better shooter and that's all. Lin is better in every other facet of the game.

    You might have a point although Parsons may just need a little more time. Rondo changes everything...Once he gets used to the Mavs and develops a chemistry, things will get better for all of them.

    AB won us a series in the playoffs... And went off on the Lakers to take them to 7 games.

    Lin passed it to the wrong team.

    And Harden disappeared and shot like an 80 year old woman...so what's your point.
    Are you saying your GM is an idiot for letting an obvious HUGE talent get away..twice?

    Cory Brewer
    Trevor Ariza
    and Josh Smith now

    Harden is a franchise player and Jeremy Lin is a bench player.

    Aaron Brooks is a bench player who's had much better playoff success than Jeremy Lin.

    Jeremy Lin is known in the playoffs for getting a 'bruised chest' and throwing the ball to the other teams.. and air balls

    lots of air balls

    LOL.

    Brooks averaged 20/5 over an entire NBA season. Lin can't even do that over a 3 month stretch.

    Aaron Brooks has accomplished more in his NBA career than Jeremy Lin ever will. Nice try.

    It's so sad to see two guys on this forum bash a player 24/7 for his failures, even though he always gave his best.
    Jeremy was a true professional and always adjusted to the team dynamics. Not even opening his mouth when he was benched.

    Best of luck to Lin!

    And tinman and Zboy...I don't consider you guys as real fans. I would understand your behaviour if you were in puberty, but your registration date clearly shows that you are two grown men. You can post as much as you want for as many years as you want to, but you guys are a shame to other Rockets fans in my honest opinion.

    I can understand Pippen hate of course.
    T-Mac hate somewhat, but meh not really. He may not have gotten us far, but boy did he step it up and show heart in the Playoffs.

    Lin hate? It's fine to not want him on the roster for basketball reasons, but having an agenda against a player who tried his best and improved from year to year? Come on. This just makes no sense unless you are doing this because you are hating his fans.

    This basically means that you two are not Rockets fans first. You are fans of "Clutchfans".

    Uhhh.

    People forget how good Aaron Brooks was for us. He was a borderline all-star.
    Oh wait. You only started watching the NBA on March 2013. My bad, you wouldn't understand.

    Not sure if you get the Laker offence?

    It involves putting the ball in the basket, not giving it to the other team. AB would start for them, but in his absence, Ronnie Price is the best they have at the moment.

    pointing out that aaron brooks is a better playoff performer than Jeremy Lin is not 'hating', it's just the truth.

    So the Jeremy Lin fans must think
    The earth is round
    water is wet
    the sky is blue

    as 'hating' too

    You guys are still at it?

    For a bench player he really riles you up.

    LOL.

    AB is a better shooter, more clutch, has more heart, and isnt the mental midget that Jeremy Lin is. Coaches also trust Brooks more with his passes and ability to handle the ball. Coaches do not trust Lin which is why he gets benched for "scrubs".

    Aaron Brooks did more in one playoff series than Lin will his entire career (NBA + Harvard + HS + and soon YMCA put together).

    Even though AB is not as good as he was before Manu injured him, even now every single GM will take AB over Lin.

    Keep on fighting the losing fight.

    Ronnie Price is going to keep giving you guys a reality check.

    I admire your tenacity though. If your player was even half as tenacious as you, Price would be stuck to the pine.

    It's not hating if you only refer to one of your posts. Hating is when you post negative posts about players who aren't on the Rockets anymore. Exactly what you are doing.

    Very well put. You have a way with words. Are you a poet in real life?

    29/87 = 33% FG for 7 PPG.

    That's not hate, tinman.

    Those are cold hard facts.

    It is called mathematics.
