Could anyone fill us in if Lin is hurt? I'm just really confused why the hell he didn't play in overtime. I'm okay with losing, that isn't the issue right now, I'm just really confused as to why Douglas got all the minutes. His defensive prowess stopped no one and his shot jacking hurt the team as well. I really hope someone can ask Lin what was wrong with him, otherwise that overtime sequence made absolutely no sense to me. If I was Lin, I would be in tears asking for forgiveness from Coach Sampson so he can get his spot back during the end of a game lol.
Dismissal of Lin's skills and capabilities. Its okay, Lin's used to it, from his high school to college to NBA career.
Lin was getting burned a bit by Lillard's quickness at the end. Sampson probably thought Douglas could stick closer to him.
Yea unless he was hurting he should have played. Also i rather see cole aldrich come in place of Asik. No need to freaking put patterson at Center. Patterson averages less rebounds than Lin!!!
you guys are mad stupid and have no ball experience. lillard got open from great picks set and no hedge by our big men. the last shot lillard hit on lin was just a great offensive play. Lin shaded him to the baseline and to the help. lillard just made a better stepback jumper. cant do anything against that.
I made this point in the game thread. Lillard shot 3-8 off lin, made every shot against Tony Douglas. Lin is statistically an elite iso defender. Tony douglas is statistically quite literally the worst player in the league. Just a whole lot of WTFs.
Lillard was torching him... But Douglas couldn't stop him either. Douglas was a huge negative on the O side.
Lin's defence wasn't bad at all, he made so many defensive plays in the 4th quarter, drawing charge and taking a block. If he was on at the end play Lillard would have missed the same step back 3 anyway. Sigh this is just so stupid, doing the same thing over and over and expecting same results. If Lin was more outspoken I wonder what would happen.
