To add on to this, the biggest complaint most have with Lin in regards to consistency is his mindset and body language between individual games....
Wow, Joe Johnson over Lowry and Afflalo...?
lol, nice try. https://twitter.com/Jonathan_Feigen/status/429042655511584769
The team likes and respects him because he's fun, friendly, and a ******* legend on the basketball court. Are you kidding right now?
Why would you hope for Lin to get picked? That would be pretty embarrassing for the Rockets.
Westbrook and Rose will probably skip the World Cup after their knee surgeries I would think.
I think with the makeup of the roster, Harden may be an ideal sixth man, with George playing almost exclusively as a 3&D guy. PG: Curry SG:...
Goldsberry has been noticeably harsh on Harden's play style... I think lumping Durant and LeBron in with him as outside-in player type throws off...
Additionally, the coaching staff was fantastic in the playoffs against the Thunder last year. Even those who most want McHale fired can't possibly...
I don't understand what people that want to fire McHale expect. Where are the Rockets supposed to be right now? We're 29-15. We've dealt with a...

I think that's a perfectly valid midset to have about Lin. The problem begins when the people that "love the kid" let it change their perceptions...
Rockets have a great home record, and if you were at the playoff games last year you'd know it was a great atmosphere. This is a non-issue.
... proceeds to make excuses. Beverley was like +26 tonight. Lin was the only player with a negative +/- at -7.
Did it ever occur to you that the reason he isn't empowered to do that is because he isn't good enough to handle the role?
Evidence to support anything you just claimed, other than your favoritism?
Great analysis, really top notch. Excellent use of getting inside McHale's head, excellent use of the always hilarious "Haren" moniker. Way to add...
