No need to worry about the perception of a few people. What's important is the win, no matter how, a must win. If Lin is rusty, team win in spite of his poor plays. Great! If Lin blends in right away and contributes to a convincing win, even greater! Because we know he's ready for game 7!
I think OKC by now would have prepared playing against beverly and brooks line up... having lin on the bench is our wild card... OKC did not prepare for this... so it can be an advantage for us....
As long as The Rockets win who cares what individual "wins"? As long as The Rockets win who cares what the idiots and trolls have to say about your boy. A Rockets win is a win for Lin and every other player on this team.
Seems like a majority of Twitterers don't want Lin to play. Hope he does well if not he's gonna get a lot of hate.
Yeah i'm pretty sure people were wanting to bench Harden after game 4. We all know how that worked out. I think lin's gonna put up 20 off the bench and we're gonna get a little taste of Linsanity.
this guy had 82 opportunities to ruin the team as a starter, playing through multiple sprained ankles during the season. we're in the playoffs. did he ruin our season? must've been hell of a coaching job on mchale if he was able to hide jeremy for 32 min a game, over 82 games.
why is this suddenly a Lin discussion? there is a separate thread on that one. please no more Lin on this thread. I am a Lin fan, but it is becoming polarizing now.
FIFY. I'm a fan of the team with Houston on their jerseys. I don't care who embarrasses Flopping Fisher as long as it happens over and over again.
It's more like rational Rockets fan vs LOH. I can not believe fans turn on their player like that. Is Lin really that bad?
ok I start off, i am worried how mchale will react to more collison on this game. collison is one that may change dynamics on this game.
other thing i get worried about is how we will react on drive and then drop off for a dunk by okc. with much doubling on durant, he pass on a wingman/guard, drives, asik moves in for a block, dish below to s waiting perkins/ibaka/collison . . . boom! either foul on asik or easy 2pts.
