    1. Not on our bench. He's better than Prigioni

    2. Wow, Harden does all the time.

    Sadly, at this point in time we don't have anyone to choose from. Come summer, what PGs are really going to be available?

    I'm hoping Prigioni will help, but I'm not holding my breath.

    1. We haven't seen Pablo play yet

    2. Harden does everything, the Rockets either let Harden do his thing or jack up 3 pointers like NBA Jam

    we jacked up 37 3s last night, the most threes i remember the championship team jacking up was against Orlando in overtime, and that was 32

    I wish we ran pick and roll all the time, we don't


    3. We know why Lin would be back on the Rockets, it's not basketball reasons

    That's what I'm saying. Harden does everything, we need another guard to do something for 15 minutes.

    And I hope it's a guard who has good ball handling and understands game situations

    Pablo can do a C+ job at that. But what kind of play would even be run with the personnel out there without Harden/DWight? We all like seeing DMo post ups but they go away from that for some reason.

    Tbh bev is a good fit if he keep up his defense and shut down westbrook/cp3/curry. Harden does all the plays anyways.

    Yes that would be ideal but the other guys we tried to get (Dragic and afflalo) were trying to rape us

    ^^ LOL @ everyone ignoring Lin while he was throwing a fit.

    Jeremy Lin showing us his late game situation awareness once again.

    Like the announcers mentioned, Lin is bending his knees, sticking his hand out and playing defense and then gets all pissy because they responded by scoring on a pass??

    You dont want to get scored on? Then back off with 10 seconds left in a blowout game and the nets would let time expire.

    Jeremy Lin needs to be working on his game than worrying about the integrity of the game in epic clash of giants: Lakers vs Nets

    Yup.. the Lakers bench standing up and having some words for Bogdanovic is them throwing a hissy fit. :rolleyes:

    Byron Scott instructed his team to let the clock expire, they were simply shadowing their man and face-guarding on defense. They weren't trapping or going for the steal. This should be obvious. Have you ever played basketball before ZBoy?

    Most of the time you'll see the player in Bogdanovic's position with the game wrapped up, pull the ball back out to the three point line and dribble out the clock with 5 seconds left.

    That said, I don't see anything wrong with Lin's reaction. Hardly a hissy fit or tantrum, ala Demarcus Cousins or Rasheed Wallace:rolleyes:. He just had a few choice words expressing his displeasure. Bogdanovic didn't want any part of the verbal exchange because he knew what's up. If anything, it is a step in the right direction for Lin.

    LOL yup.

    Mighty Bojan Bogdanovic putting Lin in his place by ignoring him.

    Swaggy P coming over to Lin to ask him to chill.

    We should have an update soon by Lin himself on his twitter account....indirect reference of course.

    I think he already said it to Bogdanovic's face.

    Would you say the things you say here to Lin's face?

    Who's the passive aggressive ***** now? lol

    No scrub battle!

    Bojan did not even look at Jeremy. Turned his back right towards him.

    What is Jeremy's status if a scrub puts him on full ignore?

    This problem might need some Discrete mathematics and predicate logic & proofs to be solved.

    Dude is as if not more clueless than McHale in late game situations. Do not want the Rox to resign him at all. Please No...

    so when scrub time happens, the scrubs want to score cause this is the only playing time they get.

    If jeremy didn't want him to score, then he should cover him
