Whew! Lucky humans aren't robots. How about this stat? 2-0 with him starting and playing heavy minutues?
Finally we hit the big 30, woohoo. Another god-like performance by Beardsanity, ,it's becoming the norm LOL@a frustrated Bogans getting on King James' face, who does that freakin' bum think he is? Lin went to work on the PnR in the first half with the bigs with really pretty passes. That Lin/Dmo connection is real He took a day off defensively, c'mon JLin! I'm loving the minutes from D-Mo, yeah his defense got abused a lil bit at the end but man do I love his offense. I hope he doesn't get buried in the bench again when the new guys show up Beverley Thrills has returned!
means absolutely nothing. He contributed nothing in the first game (in fact he hurt the team). Tonight he ran well and good for him. Every player has a game in which he plays above his level. He sucks when he plays that many minutes. He should be limited to 25 MAX, if you want to have a championship contender team

Sorry, I was referring to your speaking about Lin's consistency (since that seemed to spark up a debate a few pages earlier). Didn't meant to confuse you, but no need to be rude!
Dmo - still lacks experience and the Rockets traded away Pat and Morris. T-Rob isn't ready of course Delfino is going to end up with more minutes. You were raging at McHale for leaving him in and then it backfired on you. Just manned up and apologize.

nobody mentioned that lin was guarding watson tonight. cj was running around trying to get open. i think that wore lin out a bit. also their d was pretty good taking away our drives. imo lin plays better when he gets going with a few layups. he had to settle for a lot of midrange shots today and they just didnt fall. even had an airball iirc. on the bright side, the 2nd quarter was awsome. smith had 2 monster dunks. dmo got going a bit. and just think TRob is on his way. this kinda play in the paint is just getting started... oh and this is in addition to asiks dunks/layups. it only gets better from here!
Great 1st half, bad 2nd half for Lin Bad 1st half, brilliant 4Q for Harden Slightly below average game for Parsons and Asik Delfino showed up big, bench played great We are simply a better team than Nets, nice win 4 of our starters were having a subpar game tonight, I am sure they will bounce back tomorrow
It didn't backfire on me. It was not a good decision keep him on court for that long and that's it. If you think otherwise then let's just leave it at 'SuperStar is a r****d'.
So all he did was pad his stats? Really? Yes he played a lot of time, but still his numbers still happened.
He got those stats because he is not that bad to not get any. I am sure most players on the team would get something similar.
Not sure why was singled out tonight. The Rockets won Lin has played well the last dozen games. Lin is inconsistent and you ideally like consistency from your point guard. However he is a good player and at times a very good player. I think some of the criticism about his inconsistency comes from people comparing him to Harden. It is not fair, Harden is one of the most consistent players in the league. I am glad to see Lin taking open shots even when he has a poor shooting night. A month ago he passed up too many open shots. He has improved a lot and plays well with Harden.
Delfino Rebound (Off:0 Def:5) 2:09 Delfino 3pt Shot: Made (20 PTS) 01:54 [HOU 100-94] Delfino Jump Shot: Made (22 PTS) 01:14 [HOU 102-96
Ok if delfino sucks so bad, who do you propose we play more? DMo? The rookie? Jones? The rookie? Both those players have not had much time in the NBA. We could use delfinos veteran leadership. I agree it would be better if delfino didn't play that many minutes but until Mchale has confidence in jones/TRob/DMo and they become consistent, that's the best we can do.
