    this is sig worthy. So true. i have never seen anyone following people around harassing other members other than LOFs. by far the most defensive group on these forums.

    Example of a person talking about Lin fans rather than discussing Lin as a player.

    this is really true, there is actually no identity to this team at all. part of the reason is teh coach is kind of new at this so hes experimenting hardcore...and another reason is the influx of new players as well. It's going to take awhile guys.

    Jeremy played only one full year of bb. His shots were getting better and better as the season progressed and he was shooting 40+% on 3s and is a great penetrator. Nash was not very good during his early early years and had to be shipped away. What about Rondo and Kid? They were terrible shooters at the start, period. Lighten up people. Jeremy was the point guard of a playoff team which every body thought would go no where before the season, and you guys want to can him in one year. Look at how Harden played in the playoff games lately and in OKC last year. He had been around for 3 years now. Jeremy had an unfortunate injury (just like Westbrook) and had been ineffective while he tried to contribute. He played bad in the 1st playoff game of his life and you want to dump him? Who else played well in that 1st game? His 2nd & 3rd games were largely hampered by the injury. Lighten up people.

    He's injured. He'll continue to get better!

    Not ready to judge him just yet. His 1st season here was full of ups and downs. If he shows major improvement when the 2013-2014 season starts, than i'll be comfortable with him. If not, than i'd be all for trading him if we can find any suitors.

    I love the excuses and patience for Lin in this thread and the impatience for Harden in the other threads

    Were you here when Lin played like straight garbage after game 1? The forum threads were ridiculous at the time. Even worse than all the Harden ones right now

    Lol, five different bash Lin threads popped up after game 1 after he had a terrible first playoff game. After Harden's game last night he deserves to be criticized especially since he has had a lot of postseason experience.

    Completely wrong, you only think this because you attribute everything you don't like to Lin fans. Heck most of the so-called examples of "bad" lof posts are just negative posts about harden - how do you know this is a "defensive Lin fan" and not just a harden hater?
    The idea that you would think of putting this kind of polarizing post in your sig is just horrifying.

    You understand that two wrongs don't make a right yet you want people to be impatience with Lin also? Just take your one right and one wrong instead of asking for two wrongs.

    I've been patient with Lin. I don't even blame him for not playing in the playoffs.

    I've posted in this thread earlier that I want Lin to succeed. People need to chill the **** out on both sides.

    Then why would you find it funny that some are more patience with Lin and not Harden? If anything you should be frustrated that people are not patience with Harden regardless of Lin.

    I would like to see him and T-rob get traded for Garnett and their first round pick. Then use that pick to draft-and-stash either Gobert or Giannis.

    I really don't get this Harden vs Lin thing, has there always been Pip vs Chuck, Franchise vs Mobley, Mo vs Moochie, Yao vs T-Mac, Dragic vs Lowry etc etc?

    Please, Harden vs Lin would be more like Yao vs Hayes, Franchise vs Jimmy Jackson ...

    They both need to grow and get better. Also, both are injured.
