    The games Jeremy Lin didn't play are the games we won! If Jeremy Lin is hurting he shouldn't have played. Brooks and Beverly is just better. If Beverly is in foul trouble go with Brooks. Fisher had no answer for him. If Fisher is in the game go with Brooks. If Jackson is in the game go with Beverly!...I should be coach!!:rolleyes::grin:

    I'm quite happy that at the end of this season, we have a better title than before.

    "a large reason" is so much better than "the reason". I commend you.

    Well, summer here we go.

    I was someone who was very much for bringing in Jeremy Lin over keeping Dragic at the beginning of the year. I thought it was a higher upside play. But so far Lin has really disappointed me. I basically expect to see potential upside in young players when I watch them. I see it less and less with Lin.

    I have no idea how much Lin brings in terms of business side of things. If Lin's popularity, for example, becomes integral to Dwight Howard coming here in the offseason, then he'd be worth his contract on that alone. But if Howard doesn't come here, and the Rockets don't see Lin taking a huge leap forward next year, I can easily see him traded.

    I still think Lin's better than Beverley. But Lin's going to count $17mil against the cap the next two years. Beverley? $2mil.

    His lateral quickness is not as good as Bev or Brooks, but his straight line acceleration blows them away, and that is what's most important in getting to the rim, especially off the PnR, which is Lin's true special talent. He is one of the top guards in the league off the PnR...too bad they hardly run these plays for him...

    I'm not a LOF genius. Lin was terrible. No excuses. I've never once said I liked him here.

    He's overrated and overpaid and Morey is to be blamed for giving him that contract.

    Yeah, here is the TRUTH...if anyone dares to call out Harden for his awful play, or Morey for all his mistakes....they get labeled a LOF by people like you.

    I'm not a LOF, I'm a Houston Rockets fan. You and people like you on the other hand, you come across as Morey and/or Harden stans, and not Rockets fans in any way.

    Morey should have never even signed Lin. But where is the proper criticism for that here?

    Harden is just an absolutely disgrace of a "star" player....but how dare anyone even criticize him here.

    I will search for the ignore feature now.

    I am no Lin fan, but he his hardly the reason we lost the season.

    1.) Backup center is probably the main reason.
    2.) Our complete lack of any PFs on the roster
    3.) Can't stop Durant
    4.) PG position

    Wait, did Lin even run a single PnR play in this entire series?

    I dont dislike Lin, but all this crap is so annoying. These knee jerk threads are littering the GARM.

    You didn't see Reggie Jackson score on him? Watch the game dude. He cut back door on him many times.
