    The LOHs are out in full force!

    Beverly played great as a backup but after 15 straight minutes, you get him the F**K out and put Lin the starter back in. I don't care who the starter or backup is -- after 15 minutes of one person playing, you rotate the next person in.

    It's true. Unless he somehow knew Lin would join the team in the future and joined 6 years earlier.

    Loosing that game sux. The team kind of looked a bit lost in the last 3 mins, with no sense of direction other than pass to Harden for ISO. Also I really hope Mchale begins to have trust on Lin and start to use him in the 4th qtr. He needs to know when to ride the bench and when to put the starters back in.

    Although he does seem more dependable (in past games), he needs to take more shots for us to make that assessment. But for one thing, I liked his # of assists this game!

    The Rockets don't win close games is because we really aren't that good. We have to rely solely on outscoring our opponents, which may get us into the playoffs but won't get us far in the postseason.

    This exactly. Bench is supposed to be a spark, not the flames that go out like it did tonight

    Lin should have went in the 6 min mark. There was a stretch in the game, I think from 8 to 6 minute mark where the game was stagnant. Oh well, really tough loss. Hopefully they rebound for this Friday against the Warriors.

    We need to come up with some way to end a close game. 3 ISOs in a row won't cut it.

    Bingo! Lin haters love Mchale because he loves to bench Lin, disregarding the team is losing because of his failure as a coach.:mad:

    Well theres always next year. This time has 0 chance of upsetting a top seed in the playoffs. Keep choking against bad teams, the mavericks, the wizards, the kings, the bucks Rockets. Please. I hope they take this as a learning experience and come back strong next year. McHale's rotations have me scratching my head sometimes. If you think about it he's basically a second year coach. I hope he improves next year.

    Oh and its clear Lin is basically a rookie in McHale's eyes. If there is ever a run and Beverly is part of it he has a 100% chance of staying in. Beverly is a rookie too so the one who is playing better will stay on the floor just like Robinson and Dmo. I don't have a problem with that because every LOF claims Lin is a rookie.

    I just want know the thinkings and the reasons that is behind from coach McHale. I respect coach McHale as a person, and he is already excel all my expectations for him as a coach (was pretty low initially), but I just want hear what he was thinking, and I will take it, even its a ****ty one.

    Come guys i see some of ya blaming Asik for the Free throws for the Lost. Well if we had Dwight or Josh Smith it would be the same problem cause they cant hit anything either. Its part of their game and you live with it and just gotta over come it.

    I have watched almost every game in full this season. That fourth quarter was an offensive disaster. Bev played very passive offensively, and was basically worthless on that end of the court. Houston is an offensive team. Offense first. We aren't EVER going to win a game by strong D. And the Dallas PG's were no offensive threat, Mike James? Come on. Lin was needed for his offense. It's as clear as day. McFail is a bad coach.
