ClutchFans Game Thread: Hawks @ Rockets 12/31/2012

Team's winning and people still find a reason to b****.

 

we are already among top 10 nba teams and we've just started bro...

however dont expect game in game out visible and palpable improvement...

improvements are usually happening in big and unexpected spurts

 

Thanks. Guess only wear them on special holidays? I like all of our current uniforms.

The red/yellow one feels like Chinese national uniforms. Chinese always combine these two colors since they are their national flag colors.

 

So WB having great teammates somehow makes him better? All that tells me is that he's benefiting from his teammates making up for his poor decisions. OKC wins despite him not because of him.

 

no you get out of here. why dont you just enjoy the game. #hater #nitpick #negativevibes

 

why so angry tho? like WHO GIVES A ***. Lin is on our team anyways dude. LET IT GO!

 

Lin is our Westbrook does not mean anything. Don't be too sensitive.

 

I found it...you realize the Rockets aren't as good as the Thunder. When you compare two positions side-by-side with the understanding of which player plays on which team, you don't have to include "mini-" or "-lite" behind the player to get your message across.

The OP is just comparing Lin's skillset to Westbrook's, that's it. And as you can see by the original post, the guy didn't even make any comparisons outside of that. I don't know why you're bringing in championships into this quote-fest. He's not measuring each players' contribution to their team...

Does Lin turn the ball over alot? Yes. Does Westbrook? Yes.
Does Lin excel at driving to the basket? Yes. Does Westbrook? Yes.
That's all.

Both LOF and LOH here are blowing this out of proportion. Jesus Christ .

 

I know that Sampson hates Lin, but I don't think bringing Avery is gonna do anything. I think Mchale is bitter about Lin too for some weak human reason, but still a better coach than Avery. Sometimes you gotta make things work with people you have a natural aversion to. I've had that too, but the company you work for is not going to fire the whole management because of one good employee.

 

Now we just need Harden to pat J Smith's back and get him interested in coming to Houston after the game.

 

Clear as day. I don't think Sampson is a bad guy per se. He just doesn't like Lin for whatever reason. No explanation for what ppl are thinly in their heads.

 

*shaking my head*

 

I like McHale - I like his demeanor even. I don't see much to complain about with him these days. Minor substitution quibbles but overall he's done a fantastic job - Sampson did fairly well as a substitute when McHale was gone and as long as he isn't in the head coach's seat, I'm fine with him.

 

no it's in honor of a great American hero: Ronald McDonald!

 

Lin is already a superstar he is just in a shooting slump...for gods sake the man is still a rookie

 

aesthetic80, please just stop. With some members, it's just not worth it.

 

Funny how some of you took this and ran with it.
You might want to watch it again, that is all I'll say.

 

Oh yea, absolutely.

 

Find a post in which I said Lin will never be anything but a role player . Don't worry....I'll wait.

 

loved the picks ppat was setting. get the man some football dummie pads so he can perfect it.
