So wishing injury and even death on a player is OK now?

You have to understand.... you know... not all people in the world were brought up by good and educated parents

 

I believe in the game 7 victory!

 

dude 60% of this board is LOF ..what are you on crank?

 

In real time you're right that it wasn't clear that he was out of bounds. Someone posted a pic on twitter that clearly showed his hand on the ball with his foot out of bounds. Maybe the pic had been altered for all I know, but that still doesn't change the fact that the Rockets have been the victims of horrible calls during critical times of the game. And again I'm not trying to absolve Lin. He made a horrible decision.

 

there's no such thing as persian basketball players

 

I think you have the wrong person BUT nevertheless ....I find your post amusing!

Talk about incoherent gibberish ramblings...

LOL!

LOFS are having a mental breakdown.

 

Absolutely not. What you've got on this site is a handful of posters- not most, mind you - but a handful of posters who have some serious emotional deficiencies in their lives. Even to wish death or serious injury on Mo Williams for being a punk is truly despicable. You're always going to get that with sports; a high percentage of fans are great- and do get justifiably upset when their team loses or a player does badly.

So, the appropriate response is "that player sucks" or "please get rid of him" or whatever. Not "I hope he gets hit by a bus" or "he's a worthless human being." I mean, really, it's pathetic that some are that way, but it's usually attributed to their own failings as human beings. No one who is reasonably emotionally and mentally healthy would ever have the need to wish this on a basketball player. But for those who live vicariously through a basketball team, that is what you get.

There is nothing wrong with being upset, or saying that one does not want to watch any more games, or whatever. That is a consumer's right. But to wish harm? A sickness.

 

I root for the guy and I swear he plays for the other team. When I saw him sub in I turned to my brother and said "Lin is gonna mess this up again somehow." Sure enough...

My brother is a Rockets hater, btw. Every time Lin touches the ball he screams "Shoot it, Lin!"

 

Watching Lin play, I am partially convinced he is playing for the other team.

 

Lol Houston Rocket Fans.....

Anyone who seen enough Rocket games shouldve known Patrick Bev Or J-Lin weren't going to help contribute much to a series.

Shouldn't have trade Brooks away.

And you're most likely never going to win a series with James Harden on your team

 

Do we report posters like this?

 

He's getting the schaub treatment . Getting paid but performance is below average. Wish no death or injury on the guy . Just sit on the bench and root for the rest of the guys. Him bringing up the ball is like a near heart attack waiting to happen for a rocket fan.

 

Welcome to the internet.

 

Mo Williams is te recipient of some kinda justified "wishes" though.

 

Definitely. Wishing someone gets benched, waived, or "injured *wink wink nudge nudge*" is one thing, but actually hoping they get hurt or die is quiet another. The only player I ever felt OK about taking some time off due to any sort of low-level injury or mental breakdown was Matt Schaub due to Kubiak's strange desire to keep trotting him out come hell or high water so we could see what Keenum looked like.

 

This.

 

Because whether JLin gets put on the court is his choice.

If you think JLin is overpaid, that's the front office's mistake. If you think JLin is overplayed, that's the coaching staff's problem. Neither of these were Jeremy Lin's choice - you think he should have maybe told the front office he only deserved a 3 million contract when he signed it? And if you think Jeremy Lin is not trying hard enough - well, you haven't been watching the games. So which part of this really justifies the fanatical and obsessive hatred on Jeremy Lin the person?
