    Most of you want to tank, yet get upset when it seems as if we are headed for the number 1 pick. I have never seen so much scrutiny for an undrafted player. Also, this might not be a popular opinion, but I felt Lin did a good job defending tony parker. I didn't see parker get into the lane at ease and he was 1-5 tonight.

    I'm referring to the pre-season games.
    8 out of 11 free throws = 73%
    4 out of 19 fg = 3%
    0 out of 5 (3 pts) = is there a % for this? Negative something?

    4 out of 19 = 20%

    Isn't machado black? He's probably better than the Asian.

    It's probably a blessing in disguise, that we lost to the best team of last regular season in a pre-season game. Exposing our weaknesses. We'll learn from it.

    On to the next one!

    Little brazalian magic is a stud. his playmaking is off the charts. glad we signed him long term. Kid is little a rocket pocket.Lin looks like a scrub so right now he gets a pass because it's preseason but if he plays like this in the regular season god help us.

    No need to trash Lin more, Lin is always his his own harshest critic. Have you not seen how embarrassed he was during after-game interview? I bet he's been kicking himself hard already.

    I just checked Parker's stat. He played 12 minutes, was 1-5 FGM, 4-6 FTM, had 1 assist and 3 TOs. So yes, I agree Lin defended him pretty well.

    Apparently people expected us to contend in the playoffs.

    Also keep in mind we had two rookies in the starting lineup.

    Man, if the Texans lose tonight watch for all the butt hurt fans to vent out on Lin and the Rockets...
