    Because real Rocket fans know he is best for the team.

    I don't have a problem with Lin.

    I just think the stupid Lin fans( the ones who put him before the team, not all of them)
    Need to calm down..... It will never be Lin over Harden

    Just mindboggling,this Lin vs Harden stuff. There is no way we can even dream of winning without Harden being a starter.

    Guess there is merit in tanking next year and going after Wiggins.

    Sixth man just means he won't play at the very start. He'll still get his minutes and when Lin sits late in the first he'll come in and do his thing. What's wrong with that?

    (copy and paste from the Lin 6th man thread and apply to this thread)

    The creation of threads like these shows the problem that we have to deal with on the forum (and have had to for some time) regarding some fans of Jeremy Lin.

    Lin is a pretty good player. He has the potential to be even better. To think he is James Harden's equivalent or deserving of the same role and treatment in the offense is not reflective of reality. You're not proving a point by saying "Move Lin to 6th man?!?! Well then let's move James Harden to the 6th man!!" -- you're just outing yourself as an irrational fan of Jeremy Lin.
