    Just like the Phillipines crowd?

    You do realize traffic is the reason for a lot of the late crowds right?

    Q: What is Jeremy's weakness.

    McHale: ........ I think Jeremy did a tremendous job last year. I think you should ask Jeremy the question!

    Way to avoid the question.

    I'm sure his ticket said Rockets vs. Pacers... not Lin vs. Pacers.

    At anyrate I watched the game and saw Lin play, and play well. Clown ass fanboys.

    People are so dumb its like that dumbass Heat fan who tried to sue the NBA because Pop didn't play his starters in Miami last year...

    LOL, " third world minions. " that's such a 80s mindset.
    on top of that plain wrong. Anyway for your knowledge , Taiwan has always been an ally of America . it's as third world as Germany.

    Actually that is not dumb... If I paid court side seats to enjoy an NBA game I would be pretty pissed if the opponent is planning to throw the game away...

    Did he see Jeremy or not? if he paid is months income and saw Jeremy Lin play... so I guess he got his moneys worth isn't it?

    is your friend pissed off or disappointed?

    did you even read what I say? I said no one was pissed off... i did not say no one was disappointed lol get your reading comprehension right

    why don't you speak for yourself and let your friend log in here and speak for himself? LOL

    you are clearly over reacting over this... you are not even filipino lol

    Sorry but "Not Starting" and "Being benched" are 2 different things... one still got the same playing as the starters, the other one didn't even get to play at all... guess which is which?

    From watching a video of the press conference it looks like the context of the photo was McHale saying "you first" when they were asked for opening statements.

    As my brother in law put it, it is called '吃苍蝇". If you don't understand what that mean, you probably should be quite on this topic.
    This is Rocket's fault. There is no problem to change lineup, but at least they should let their audience know in advance.

    Luckily I'm a Filipino of Chinese decent (grand parents all from fu jian province) living in Singapore, so I yeah I know what that means...

    btw its Quiet not quite...

    I came in this forum as a Lin fan, now I am a rocket fan... and as I have said before, I dont care if lin starts or comes off the bench... lin got his minutes and he played well... the fans who came to see Jeremy got to see jeremy play for 20 minutes. as much playing time as any starter...

    Rockets are now going to play in taiwan and Lin is going to start... so whats the issue now?

    It definitely made the Rockets look bad to many fans over there and probably to many Asian companies. Yes, they got to see Lin play and he played well, so many are satisfied, but I'm sure they will still think it sting to expect one thing and get another thing after all the advertisement of Lin to promote the games. It was kind of a slap in the face.
