    The recover and block on that bad foul against Barea was great.

    Beverley plays with energy every defensive possession.

    He only took six shots. Might indicate that he was interested in facilitating.

    How does that matter? At the end of the day the Rockets won and that is all that should matter. Whether Lin had 2 or 3 steals is really inconsequential.

    Just a fan thing...1 steal doesn't sound as good as 3. Sort of like getting 1 more assist getting a triple/double doesn't make a difference in the game but sounds better than a double/double and 9 assists.

    This happens frequently, unfortunately... sometimes the officials just don't catch everything. I pay a lot more attention to it this season b/c I play fantasy bball and closely track the players on my team. It's happened to nearly every player on my team a time or two -- I have Lin, Bev and T. Jones, and it's definitely happened to all of them more than once. There's some mechanism that allows you to report missed stats to the NBA, if you care enough to do it (I definitely don't lol). If you're accurate, I think they'll credit the player retroactively.

    It matters to a lot of Lin fans because they are very insecure with the ways CF criticize Lin and Lin's stats are very crucial to make a trade happen

    I'm listening to KFAN MN sports talk radio and they are ripping the Wolves remorselessly. Some these guys, even though they are paid to talk sports, are admitting they quit watching the game in the 4th. One guy is saying that the Wolves looked played like the Washington Generals out there.

    Ha! Thank you for your contribution.

    No, he doesn't, but I'm happy for you to give some more valuable analysis on the situation if you'd like.

    You should re-read the posts I was replying to, and my original responses. I singled out quite a few players who played bad today, but for some strange reason people only have a problem when I say Lin played bad.

    Thank you for the kind words. I'm happy to give unbiased analysis after games and will continue to do so. I will continue to note when players play bad in a particular game, and LOF's will continue to whine when Lin happens to have a sub-par game.
