    The coach has done that but Lin had not been failed. In fact, he improves his overall game other than the disappointing shooting%. To set him up to fail in this game, the coach needs to ask lin to defend d12 one on on.

    not mean to argue, Im a LOF.

    You need heart to win games. The Lakers have none and we have heart in spades.
    GO ROCKETS!

    Easy. Take the ball out of his hands and if he do get the ball, only in the last seconds and don't set any picks for him. On defense, make him chase Kobe, D12, Gasol, and MWP all at the same time.

    The thing is that Asik is not a quality big man (not hating Asik here) is not a quality big man on offense so we cannot run the P&R properly.

    2 things -jlin was really lacking in the last game - shooting confidence at the 3 and lift on the drives. everything else was + . If he can improve either of these 2 problems it should be good for the rockets.
    Gives coaches confidence, more offensive options during 4th.

    Man .. Asik not getting that foul call on Batum in the last game was painful. damn REFs

    True. Too bad we didn't play them earlier this season.

    Because the coaches don't trust his teammates.

    There's a parallel universe in which we win by 16 pts.

    16 seems reasonable to me...if a good shooting night occurs then that will be the outcome....cmon rockets are playing perhaps the best of all teams...I mean every game was close and undecided until the last minute...and almost every other team was blownout by somebody at least once....

    None taken, but it frustrates me to no end when that play repeats itself over and over again. BTW,I saw your name on a JLIN discussion site.
