    Coward. You hate him because of his race. You hate his fans because of their race. But at least stick to your opinion and stop acting like a p***y and say you like him BUT.

    Unlike you I see the truth behind the fraud. You want to attack me by shouting at me without staying on topic. I hate his game and hate the reasons why he is playing, not the man himself, nothing wrong with that and stating my opinion. It'd be better if he just play with a Maxxis tires jersey on so we can all see what the reality behind why he is really in Houston. Of course he'd look like a dork and the NBA would disallow that during games. At least during practices he should do that.

    I couldn't care less about race so you gotta grow up and stop playing the race card. Nothing to do with Asian Americans who tend to be great at certain things. In fact I employ a lot of AA's as bean counters, clerks and interns They do a good job and do their jobs as instructed with a minimum of hassle. I guess with the constant racism they face, it's understandable they are venting on Clutch.

    Yes, I have to agree that having the number of new players that we do, the impact on team chemistry is detrimental. It's a setback, but I'm willing to be patient with the coaching staff because it'll take time and tinkering to figure out how to get this group firing on all cylinders in time for the playoffs.

    I can see blaming Morey but what I really dislike is the fact that when the trade happened McHale and Lin immediately and openly said that trade would set them back. They spoke that into existence without even truly going out and just playing their best ball in confidence that it could be better now. That negativity starts with McHale not Morey. From McHale it trickles down to weak minded players like Lin who just immediately accepts the trade as a situation to struggle immediately... I dislike the negative of shucks just pat overs elves on the back we are automatically doomed attitude. That's why i feel McHale needs to go.

    Can we please stop talking about what first round opponent we could upset or how we are a lock for the playoffs. Jazz and GS won't keep losing. I'd like to say the same about the rockets but we were all fans last year weren't we? Pretty sure we had a six game losing streak and dropped 7 of our last 9

    I wouldn't characterize Lin's lament about the loss of his teammates as "weak minded".
    He was being a team player, being professional, respectful, trying to show class, and most importantly his comments were not directed at you or me or the media they were meant for his departing teammates who he missed.

    True and that could happen again and I hope it doesn't. I don't think it will but what worries me most is McHale. Good to great coaches know how to win and find ways to win... Coaches like McHale find ways and reasons to lose. A lot of times it's his attitude outside of coaching in the game itself that I completely don't agree with.

    My only comment is that Asian Americans are zit picking which is the truth of all teenagers regardless of color. It's as real as saying most prisoners in the US are black or hispanic. If pointing out the obvious is racist then we should ban all the posters in the forum lol

    I'm off to get my vegetables from my AA grocer, my taxes done by my AA accountant and going to get some dim sum.

    We're going backwards. We win against a good team, but we lose to a crappy team. :confused:

    So all Asian Americans are teenagers, hmm, logical, not. Let me guess, you're not racist because you own a color TV.

    Man, you are relentless. Nothing against Goran, but I hope Lin absolutely crushes him this Wednesday so that we don't have to experience your Lin is just a marketing tool rant. Sure Goran won round 1, not in absolutely convincing manner either, but they still have 3 more rounds to go. Let's see how those play out before we declare victory for one or the other.

    I don't question Lin's mental toughness in the action or course of a game... I believe the confidence is there for him personally. As far as Lin's vibe with McHale and having the right or radical mindset I believe a player should have to supercede a negative minded coach like McHale... Lin doesn't have it as a point guard. I do think Lin's game is limited in some areas but that doesn't give him an excuse not to go against the grain and have a little bit more pride when it comes to putting his will or just flat out bringing his Nutz in a situation that coach may not agree with.

    I just had an epiphany. Every troll who uses Lin as a tag to get a response from people are either under 20 years olds or has the mental maturity of a teenager.

    .

    Majority of the AA LOFs on clutch are teenagers or have the mentality of one as evidenced by their posts. FYI, unlike some people, hmmm Philly, I can actually afford tickets to games.

    Excel, I like you. You get it, people post on forums to express their differing views and have fun. You get it. The operator of CF likes it to as he sells page views for his ads. A lot of posters, hmmm philly and all that take it too personally. Gotta get them to grow up.

    I'm not interested in blame, but I do feel the frustration that so many other CF members have expressed.

    What I also feel is that we've had an amazing season so far, filled with some of the most exciting basketball we've seen in a long time. I have to remind myself that...
    - We had incredible wins against the Jazz, Warriors, Lakers, Bulls, Knicks, and Thunder.
    - This team has tied or broken several records.
    - We have a legit star in Harden, and the possibility that he might prove to be a superstar over the next couple of years.
    - We have a winning record, and are on pace to make the playoffs.
    - We're continuing to build for the future.

    All this in a year where we gutted the roster and the outlook was to be a lottery team.

    We have a team that fans from so many other cities would love to call their own.

    There aren't too many teams this year who can say they've taken their destiny into their own hands. The Houston Rockets are doing just that.
