Dmo barely gets playing time so his stats aren't really telling. I'm not saying play him 30 minutes. 6 to 8 will do. But if we don't start playing him he will lose confidence and get worse, this kid has an excellent post game it should be nurtured not pushed to the far-side of the bench, I prefer to develop, it's not like Casspi or Garcia is lighting it up for us. Give the kid some play.

Nothing's wrong with J's comments but Harden did too much ISO-ball, heroball tonight and the team has to have better balance. We'll hear what Jeremy has to say about the benching if he's asked. I'd love Dwight or someone to come out and say we love Jeremy and he's a big part of our team so the kid will feel valued. He really tried hard and I think was too amped up in the game, unlike how he was in previous games with the Knicks where he just let the game come to him.
"Not used properly" imply misuse of Lin's talent or skills which is a mistake. "Not treated fairly" imply double standard compare to his teammates.
There is difference between capability and willingness. McHale has obviously chosen not to trust Lin, therefore treating him differently. It's hard for a stubborn guy to take back a scrub he cuts, moreover, as the 8-million man and "one of the leaders" (in Morey's words before he got Harden).
Is it supposed to say a 27 point 2nd half is not a good performance? Lin struggled in the 3rd and the team came back and got a lead with AB (and Garcia) so they stayed on the floor. Seem pretty simple.
Lin's gonna get in the All-Star game at this rate... Kobe/CP3 injured. Next two as of now are Curry/Lin. ClutchFans faints. lmfaooo
