    Don't be a troll. Beverly played great and AB had a decent contribution, but Lin would not have lost them this game. Lin played horribly in game 1, sure. But he was playing solidly on the way to a triple double before getting injured in game 2. You really think beverly + brooks is a solid one two punch? Beverly had a poor game in game 3 and brooks hasn't exactly came out in either of these games. Played a bench role, one that, even if Lin was put in, would have played better in. Everyone played great, no Harden iso, Asik stepped up in a big way and Garcia keeps on showing us why he's the x-factor in this series.

    Go home, troll.

    Why is he a hater? Maybe he realized were good with a Bev and Brooks rotation and the 8mil that Lin makes can be better spent elsewhere? Were Rockets fans. Not individual player fans.

    What are you doing langal? This thread is clearly for three part name people. You messed it up.

    andy - ace - candy
    Rocket - Power - Nick
    re - cad - na
    Rock - ets - Pride
    d - j - e243
    just - tx - yank

    Then lan - gal or lang - al, but not la - ng - al!!!!! Get with it. Even in big wins, it is important to follow Clutchfans patterns.

    I appreciate Bev and Brooks as much as the next guy here, but Lin is a capable starting point guard whose production could greatly improve our chances of making the impossible happen. I understand he hasn't had the greatest start to a series, but damn it he's a Houston Rocket right? Shouldn't we root for all our guys?

    I was already satisfied with the season we had. Making the playoffs and now winning these games are all icing on the cake. Clutch City!!!!!

    Well i'm personally not..not rooting for lin since he is a Rocket. I just want him to come off the bench if hes gonna play. When we have such good momentum, you don't disrupt it by putting in a player who isn't really key to us winning or even healthy anyway.

    It was a fantastic win. But I'm assuming you must have either been too young or not yet born when the Rockets were in their championship years?

    Not key to us winning or even healthy anyways? You are the very definition of a LOH.

    Rockets needed EVERY. LAST. WIN. this season to get to the playoffs. You don't think Lin's performance in the Clipper's game when Harden was out, Lin's 2 last minute 3's when we beat OKC in the regular season and all the other numerous games he had great production in, were evidence that the rockets "needed" him to win this year? Without Lin, they wouldn't be in this position.

    He's not a top 10 PG right now and he had a pretty rough start (though he had a good game in the 1st half of game 2 before he got injured... which averaged into a triple double had he played another half) but to say that he does not add wins to the Rockets team is just completely disrespectful and blind-sighted.

    Win the next one and we take it to game seven; anything can happen. If we win the series, we make NBA history. Why stop now?

    Because we just had a huge win, and the only thing he mentioned was out injured player not being good enough. Lets not be oblivious to the Lintension that has been building on this server. That was more of a goat to the Lin fans than trying to actually start a smart conversation.

    Ignore the trolls. ^^^ This guy knows what he's talking about.


    Although a great win, I don't know if this game is even the most satisfying in the last decade.

    These two wins from the '09 playoffs come to mind:

    vs Portland

    :rolleyes:

    Sorry guys. Didn't mean to hurt your feelings by not believing Lin is key to this series while he isn't even 100% and our 2 pgs are playing fantastic.

    Get healthy soon Jeremy. Our god is a great god.

    This about celebrating the win. Be a real Rockets fan or GTFO.

    wouldn't exactly call AB's play in any of the games "fantastic" and Beverly did have a donk of a game in game 3.. can you say.. "LINCONSISTENT?" you would, if it were Lin.

    Our production at pg is more a sign of lack of Westbrook than quality of Lin.
