Jeremy Lin is a large reason of why we lost this series

    Dumb. Durant and ibaka got hot in the 4th. Like Scott brooks said "Get ready right now.. I feel it.. I feel it.."

    Also the reason why we lost once Garcia got his 5th foul.. We had to out him on fisher instead of leaving him on Durant which stopped him for majority of the series.

    As soon as Lin got in 4th quarter the deficit grew. Why? Because he was doing what he normally does, get in the lane with absolutely nowhere to go and turning the ball over. Why McHale didn't play AB baffles me. AB was instant offense this whole series yet didn't see 4th quarter in an elimination game. Ridiculous:(

    There is a lot of blame to go around for the loss of this series. One is Thunder is better than we are at the moment. But how I see it is 0-4 with Lin, and 2-0 without Lin. NUMBERS DON'T LIE

    Hey dumb azzes in the horns set ,the dribble drive , and spread p&r the shooters are suppose to stand in the corners that's the way it's suppose to be. You would think of after watching an entire nba season that people in this board would know this already.

    I never join these harden vs Lin debates, bit i have to honestly think (I'm super superstitious) that Lin us bad luck... We lost game one, Lin started... We list game two, almost win because Beverly played heavily and Lin got injured.. Lin was absent game three, we shOuld have win if not for luck... He's absent game 4 we win.. game 5 he doesn't play, we win.. Game 6, he comes back, we lose...

    Maybe I'm super superstitious... But i see a pattern...

    He wasn't being pressured in the lane on his SINGLE TO of the night. It was a mis-communication to Smith...and it was a dead ball TO that did not lead to transition points, unlike Harden's TOs which lead to at least 4 points.

    Dude, you know the Rox were the 8th seed right? You realize one or two more losses and this was a lottery team. Look at the 82 game log, and tell me Lin didn't contribute to wins this year?

    Lin just cant perform in the playoffs. Players play extra hard on D and Lin is just not fast enough nor a good shooter to be an effective playoff player. Whats the point of having Lin to win regular season if hes gonna play like a bench player in the playoffs?

    Every time Lin is brought up it just turns into a contest on who can shift the most blame towards another person. There's never any logical points made in these threads, just kneejerk LOFs and LOHs. We just had an amazing season considering what we had to work with this offseason and everyone's just pointing fingers at who lost us the series. Terrible fans.

    and could have been a 6th seed. without harden this team is picking 6-10 in a weak lottery. take lin off this team and they still make the playoffs. lin isnt what you guys so desperately want him to be..

    Can't believe everyone bashing on Lin already.
    If PB didn't get into foul trouble early maybe Lin wouldn't be on so soon.
    Lin was mainly a spot up and barely had the ball in his hand.

    I was actually hoping Lin stayed longer because PB was getting his ass lit up by RJ big time!
