Harden, Lin try to change luck against ‘aggressive’ Heat

lol yes somehow got them confused

 

hope Harden doesnt take a day off tonight either

 

As much as I love our guys, tonight will be brutal. I expect Lin will have <5 pts and make 1 to 2 fgs. Harden might have 15. Should be a blowout.

 

The PnRs with Asik and Patterson are just invitations to trap the ball-handler. PnR is broken with the current starting lineup.
I'd like to see Morris/Smith/Jones tried out as screeners.

I don't think the game is going to be close without two players in the supporting cast stepping up in a big way. Harden will be double teamed like mad, perhaps Lin as well.

 

Harden and Lin have both played like dog s*** against the Heat. I'm really not looking forward to this.

 

Yeah not sure how Lin will handle the full court press. Hopefully his handles really improved a lot more.

I think Harden will do better but he'll likely have to guard Wade so he might get in foul trouble.

 

I honestly don't think their going to blow us out, or "take their anger out on us." However, I still think this is going to be a really tough game to win. I'll put it at about 25%.
