He's regressed defensively too...... Last season, I've said his defense was the best part of his game (Mike Woodson wouldn't have even thought of...
I watch Lin with the Rockets this season, and then watch Lin with the Knicks last season, and can't believe it's the same player.
Lin had 38 points in that Laker game, not 37..........................
I think Lin's too strong to let coaching mess with his confidence...... I think what's messing with Lin is the pressure to meet the expectations...
Unlike the Portland game, I had no problem with Sampson benching Lin. (It pains me to say this, I'm here because of Lin.) Lin has had poor games...
TD played late in this game the way Lin played late in games last season..... Some of Lin's best finishes came in games where he played poorly...
Maybe Lin was benched because Sampson knew he wouldn't get foul calls in crunch time..........
I see a triple double in his future......
If nothing else, this will be a huge test of Lin's will. It would be nice if he burns his old team like Asik did tonight.
Lin played his worst game since I was following him as Linsanity started. He might have to come off the bench in the upcoming games. TD may have...
Asik and TD played their best games tonight. If the Rox set screens like this game, this will no longer be a problem. I didn't think they'd fix...
Asik burns his old team.
TD's rotation on that last play was outstanding..... Forced the bad pass.
Boozer boxed out Asik on the offensive glass........ Asik this coming offseason will need to improve his endurance.
I just hope looking ahead to the Knicks is what Lin's problem was tonight. Otherwise we might have a meltdown.
In regard to setting screens, this is the best game the Rockets' bigs have played, particularly Asik.
Bulls FTs might be the difference of the game........
Asik's endurance problem is starting to show again.
Harden is playing his best game since the 2nd game of the season in Atlanta.
I thought the Bulls front line would give him problems...... Not the case.
