Jeremy has such bad luck in playoffs. He was on two different teams which led to playoffs and his timing for getting injured is sad. Hopefully, if he can shoot successfully without pain, then he should play on Wed. Someone reported on another site that she saw Jeremy's parents at the Sat game, approached them to say hi and asked them how Jeremy's injury was healing. Papa Lin said that Jeremy was still in a lot of pain. I believe what he said about miracles. Just take it one game at a time and I believe Rockets can take the next game. They can take the confidence and momentum into the next game at OKC. DON'T STOP BELIEVING!!!
If he's at 100% then he should play. If not then sits. I'm not sure why does it have to be so complicated to some people.
I don't think there is anything wrong with putting Lin of a short leash for game 5. Beverley has clearly shown he can play with the big boys.
Errr, wrong. Hoping for more meant that the rockets take it further. Lin has had a propensity to come up clutch late in a game. That could be valuable for the next and hopefully not last game. He could have been the difference in the 2nd game.
Rubbish. Majority of players logging decent minutes in the playoffs are not 100%. If Lin is able to contribute should be the only factor at this point. It's do or die for the team.
We really need him right now. The offense runs better with Lin in the game, I hope he is back by the next game.
I don't know what games you are watching but Parsons didn't have 3 bad games. On Saturdays game he had 21 points, shot over 50% and had 7 assist along with 7 rebounds.
I couldn't imagine where the Rockets would be tonight without the Brooks signing. Harden already had 10 turnovers and he would have handled the ball a lot more tonight without a backup PG. I also like his game a lot. He pushes the tempo and puts pressure on the defense. We needed his scoring and his three came at a good time. I think his defense was great too. Beverly tends to leave Jackson and Fisher wide open for a lot of threes and they've been making them, but that could be part of the game plan to get the ball out of Durant's hands.
Brooks did the job tonight, but people are saying that when Lin gets back he should sit on the bench behind Beverly and Brooks. I guess it is just trolls..
Lin doesn't need to come back if he is going to continue to be ineffective. If he is healthy enough I'm all for seeing if he can bounce back but Lin has been next to useless down the stretch even before game 2 injury. Beverly and now AB are giving the Rox more effective minutes.
