    I am a LOF and YES he sucks bad and show lack of confidence on the court and i do BELIEVE that his play is derivative of lack of confidence from the coaches. I said this because I KNOW LIN don't play like that...and you ALL KNOW it too. Lin play better when he attack....that's his game. We all knows when the season start, Lin play passive and then later on play better as his confidence grew...tonight it's the same thing, going back to being passive. Lin needs encouragement like every human being to play well. I hope they trade Lin to somewhere else like to the Lakers so he doesn't have to put himself with this bullshyt treatment. When he play passive, i blame nobody but the coaches for not letting him play his game.

    He was fine during the season, but he did stink in the playoffs and that's what counts. I don't want to blame one player for a series loss, but he definitely didn't do anything to help.

    Lin was horrific, but he and anyone else on the team are a REMOTELY DISTANT second to Harden.

    Harden is absolutely to blame. So selfish, and such low basketball IQ. Morey should be fired so badly for that Harden contract.

    i guess people forget the Rockets were up 10, then Reggie Jackson made a 7-0 run. "Dunk" on Asik on a busted screen D, wide open 3, then drive past Beverley to kick to a wide open Ibaka. The Rockets never recovered from here.

    Yeah, Lin was on the bench but that was his fault too.

    I hate to say this but Lin SUCKED these playoffs, he should be embarrassed. There's nothing to argue about here we definitely played better with out him.

    Lin sucked all series, but I blame Fisher, Collison, and Jackson.

    Jackson shot 22% from three the entire season and he averaged 40% during the playoffs. He will fall back down to earth after tonight. None of our guards could check him.

    Fisher flopped all series and got away with hacking Harden all game long tonight. Why does Harden give up? Because he gets fouled and he has a right to be mad. Fisher swipes at the ball and gets all arm and it's a "turnover". His timely threes pissed me off too. That ******* should not even be on the Thunder.

    Collison didn't play much except for tonight. I don't know why Brooks didn't play him. He is a dumb coach. His rebounding rate has been crazy all series long. We needed someone to box him out and our small ball didn't work when he was in the game.

    Brooks should have went with:

    Iabaka / Perkins
    Collison
    Durant/Sefo
    Martin/Fisher
    Jackson/Fisher

    Asik gets beat up all the time and I feel bad for that dude.

    Don't be mad becyase the game your boy plays in are the ones where the Rockets lose. It was addition by subtraction without Lin.

    Lin was -64 for the series when he was on the court. Injuries obviously played a part.

    THIS!!! Harden is supposed to be the leader. He doesn't have the mentality to lead this team right now. This game is ALL ON HIM!!!! Take over, take it to the hole. Be the man.

    Don't pass the ball off when you have a 50 year old guarding you. Don't WATCH the ball go down the court AFTER you make a horrible turnover at a horrible time. :mad:

    Not taking any sides here, but you give Harden all the credit for the wins, but he doesn't take any of the blame either??

    Superstars, like Harden, SHOULD take credit for both wins AND losses more than the supporting cast

    I would say Lin is a large reason we didn't win this series.

    yeah bro ibaka is a terrible shot blocker, harden should mindlessly run the ball down the court because it's easy as that
