    Not mad. Lin fans will be mad again tonight at "McFail" when he benches Lin again. We'll see who's mad then. LOLOLOLOL

    Waiting for you all to go after Clutch. :grin:

    **(Expectations for Brooks between now and end of season?): Primarily insurance. He probably won't see the floor right now the way Beverley is playing. Beverley is probably outplaying Jeremy Lin right now, which is amazing. When Lin is clicking offensively, he's obviously the better player but Beverley with what he brings defensively, and hasn't hurt you too much on the offensive end, has been playing so well. I don't expect Brooks to see much in the way of minutes right now but good insurance policy with Lin, who has had some ankle issues and if any one of those guys start to slip, he may get minutes.

    **(This is Cassell/Smith 2.0 or Jr. If Jeremy is not effective, you gotta a guy who comes off the bench, like Sam Cassell, gives you a boost and some prowess.): Brooks is still an effective shooter and still has good speed. He could become a player for them but right now, McHale will probably bring him along slowly.

    **(I was talking about Beverley): Oh sorry.

    **(Frankly, if I'm Brooks, watching Beverley get 4th Q minutes in crunch time, I'm feeling like wow, why did I come here?): His fans feel the same way. Believe me, I see it after every game. Beverley is shooting better from long range than Lin. You can see an distinct difference on defense. He's in the ball handler's face bringing it up. He blocked a Dirk shot the other day. His aggressive D, he's a good rebounder and hasn't hurt you with turnovers. He's played fewer minutes than Lin but he's turned the ball over less and more or less the same assists per 36 minutes. It's close. It's not like your losing a lot when you're pulling Jeremy Lin. Of course when he plays like he does against OKC, it's a different ball game but Lin has been inconsistent this year.

    So it's time to revisit the trade jeremy lin thread?
    The rocekts will become better with him and Clutchfans will be peaceful again.

    It's already happening. The plan to eliminate the head coach has already gone underway. Only moments now until they plot out the mutiny of Clutch. The team, the forum, everything must be about Lin. This is now a Linocracy.

    We know it's highly unlikely Lin will be traded. The next best option would probably be creating a website like Linmania.

    Clutch is publicly criticizing Lin because the LOF are making his server costs astronomical each month! If he doesn't help getting rid of Lin, he's going to be broke.

    I jus love how Lin said " I will continue playing my brand if basketball" no matter what others think, interpret it as " f u Mchale for telling me to hit singles and doubles". If no one senses Lin's frustration here with McHale, they are definitely in denial.

    Clutch said that, which honestly, you can make the case for this being true.

    It's nice to see Lin has earned your respect. I noticed Lin has won over many of his doubters in the past, including notable ex Lin haters eg, Gil, Cyclorider and King 1, amongst others...:grin:

    Nah it won't work.
    Or if Lin is injuryed and sit out for a few games, Berveley and Brooks will get the chance to shine. It happened a few times before and almost become a Rockets' tradition. Why not now?
