I once thought Lin was one of the better backcourt defenders in the league, but I do not like how his defensive game has progressed since joining...
Totally disagree..... I do think most other coaches would still have Harden as the primary option, but would NOT have him as the sole option.......
The problem is NOT James Harden.... The problem is the head coach not trusting anyone other than James Harden for the closer role...... I...
I've said it before, I'll say it again..... Dwight Howard might be a better individual defender than Omer Asik, but the TEAM defense was vastly...
The Kings set LOTS of screens away from the ball.... The Rockets are awful at defending this type of offense because the Rockets don't even...
Actually, it's contested threes and getting clobbered on layups..... (The latter item is also why we have no energy in the 4th game in 5 nights.)...
Only because Pat Bevs and Omer Asik are out.... When Lin and Asik played from the bench, the bench was fine.
This is EXACTLY what OKC did in tonight's game.
AMEN!!!!! Layups and three point shots are only more efficient in the flow of a normal offense. If you shoot these particular shots...
That's my take..... Layups and three point shots are efficient under the flow of a normal offense. In my opinion, this efficiency wanes if we...

I've Had This Strange Feeling About Lin.......... Lin has had his moments, but I always get an impression that he is ghastly uncomfortable...

The "Layups and Threes" Offense Doesn't Work Against Good Defense. (One sentence only.)
I'm starting to wonder if the Asik "pouting" thing was blown way out of proportion.... Just remember how he played in Memphis in the 2nd half,...
Patterson is the big elephant in the room when it comes to the stalling offense. He set only one decent screen in the past 10 games that I can...
It is safe to say you didn't watch the game.......... Lin's was assigned to guard Derek Fisher, and Fisher couldn't do a thing against Lin. Lin...
It shouldn't...... Our two best defenders (Asik and Lin) were on the bench..........
Asik is the best interior defender..... Lin is the best perimeter defender.............
