    Nah. I'm saying that every Rocket should be blamed with the first exit playoffs last year, including Lin, Howard, Bev, Harden, Parson, etc. But Howard played better than his countepart max player and should receive the blame less, and Lin isn't even the paid max salary / bench player expected to show up so should be blamed less.

    Nice try.

    There was no agenda. Lin played terrible most of the season. He was passive and looked like he didn't have any confidence. Kobe told him to get out of his f'ing way and was talking **** to him in practice as well. Now Lin is starting to play better but it doesn't matter, he'll go back to being linconsistent again. The cycle repeats.

    Morey dumped lin for a reason, only dumb lin fans who post on multiple team boards don't understand this.

    He's not a true point guard , he works only one way. He can't adapt.

    Lin was clueless in his first playoff vs okc and clueless vs portland.

    He could afford to be clueless in la because he's playing in meaningless games.

    You lin fins should be happy, he's not in Houston, he's in California with all the other rich people with a delusional fan base.

    he and beiber can go to church group then eat hot dogs at pinks.

    happy ending

    How convenient of you to compare Bev recent play to Lin's playoff turnover last season in the context of being clutch. "apples to apples not orange."
    Cuz Lin has be clutch since the ASB. Mr 4th Quarter, if you will.

    LOHs are reliving that moment over and over in there head, help us by helping yourself....talk to someone. Bringing that singular moment up to help with your argument is getting old. Get over it mang! I know they did:

    This thread is hilarious, considering especially how Lin is not even a Rocket anymore. I bet that if Clutchfans were to create a sister site devoted entirely to Lin-Rocket-Laker discussions--it would have just as many (if not more) posts.

    A=4th string Jeremy Lin
    B=Rockets PGs
    C=Ronnie Price

    That guy guestimate: B>A
    I proved: A>B
    So you're saying: C>A
    So Ronnie Price is better than the Wolverine, Jet and Gramps?

    Like Bill Buckner had one or two bad plays or Nick Anderson missed a free throw or two or Dennis Eckersley gave up a home run or two. Solid point.

    Howard deserves no blame for last playoffs. He was a beast and carried the team.

    Lakers v. Heat, tonight, 8 pm ET. We'll see if Linsanity part 2 continues, or, if Lin falls back to his usual inconsistency with a 1 for 8 shooting game, 5 turnovers, etc.. Also it's a back-to-back and Lin doesn't generally play well on the second of back to backs. We'll see. :)

    Clutch is wonderful but obviously he was exaggerating (or seriously tired on the Lin threads in the garm). This is not in the garm. Also, Nash has it played for three years so he clearly can't be better. And I know of no three string PG who gets about thirty minutes a night (which Lin averages) and I certainly don't know of any 4th string guards. Our beloved Canaan who was a third stringer got less than 1 minute a night. If you don't like Lin (which is ok with me) either stay away from the Lin non-Garm thread or by all means come in and enjoy the fun but don't expect sanity (maybe linsanity).

    This thread is like the Walking Dead. We got the LOFs who won't go away to lakersground and the idiot supposed "real rocket fans" who continue to go for strolls in the park and thus providing fodder for the LOF zombies. One side's meaning for existence is to root for Lin above everyone else, the other is to hate on Lin for the purpose of riling up the other side. It's not even entertaining, the entire thread is like the most cringeworthy stuff I've seen on this board.

    Jeremy Lin did not play good in that playoff series.

    But regardless of blown coverage of Lillard’s 3, Rockets blowing about at least a dozen chances to seal the game, Harden playoff no-sho, Hack-a-Howard, Beverly crucial turnover in overtime....yet Lin's error epitomized the "Curse of the Lin-ino” in the minds of Rocket fans. Even McHale hopped on the wagon when he threw Lin under the bus for that mistake. Nice one coach!

    But que sera sera
