    If Lin is still here in his 3rd year and you guys are still posting Knicks videos,
    then Lin must suck hard or you like the Knicks


    no Rocket fan NOW (Today) cares about the Lin streak from the Knicks, that didn't give the Rockets any wins did it?

    In Warriors summer league "garm"?

    And if someone wants to point to a video for reference to analyze a part of his game while playing in Knicks "garm" I don't see how that shouldn't be allowed.

    You guys need to let it flow and stop trying to control every aspect of all things Lin.

    This LOF thing is childish also.

    I've been a lifelong Knicks fan for 25 years and I come here to read about fans supporting the Kid because all I read is people trashing him and what I'm finding out is people are trashing him here too.

    I'm a BOF, basketball only fan. Lin plays basketball. I like the way he plays basketball. And I like the person so that's why I'm here.

    I also happen to like a couple of the other players just as much (Parsons,White).

    I kind of get where the OP is coming from but I also think there is some overreaction. It is kind of annoying when people ask oh how did Lin do in regards to a pre-season game as opposed to how did the Rockets do. This actually happened a few days ago. Basketball is a team sport & one individuals game is tied to how those around them play as well. There are a ton of players on this team who I like aside from Lin, namely Royce Machado & Asik. I have also come to be really impressed by Parsons, Jones, Martin & Lamb. I like the young roster that the Rockets have assembled & I think it is going to be a fun season. At the same time I came here to talk basketball and get good analysis I didn't really expect any race baiting & trolling. It seems like some are trolling the LOF's just to get a rise out of them & they are falling for it. But some of the LOF have been annoying but some of the older fans really haven't been that much better. There seems to be a superiority complex which I find a little bit silly but all in all I think everything will even out as the season progresses.

    Hey guess what... you want to see how it works.

    From this day forward I deem myself a Rockets fan. Now what?

    New dude.

    The Basketball Section on Clutchfans has two sections for the NBA:

    1. The GARM: Houston Rockets: Game Action & Roster Moves

    2. the NBA Dish : Other NBA Teams


    People in #2, talk about the Knicks, the Heat, Celtics etc

    People in the #1, talk about the Rockets


    It's not hard dude. It's like the Mens Room and the Womens Room.

    Jeremy Lin is the answer to everything! You can't have enough Lin! We should change this site to Linfans and change the Houston Rockets to the Houston Lins!

    I'm going to quiz you then.

    What city do the Rockets represent. Houston, New York

    If you answer Houston, then you understand what the GARM is about.

    It's not that big of a deal. It's a little weird how sensitive you'e being about it, though.. I feel like you're crying as I read your posts about how Jeremy Lin used to be a Knick (guess what, he did)

    Yes you do care,

    cause simply saying people should not post Knicks videos in the Rockets forum got you all worked up like Lewis on Dexter

    Hey you know Kevin Martin played for the Kings, I don't think people have continuous babbled about his days with the Kings and posted tons of Kings highlights right?

    It seems that you don't like it when I say the Rockets.

    If you're talking to me I'm actually glad he's not a Knick anymore.

    I love it when you say the Rockets. It doesn't bother me one bit.

    I'm looking forward to hopefully seeing tons of Jeremy Lin highlight reels wearing the "garm".

    You need to realize that what you're talking about is so childish that you have to be a youngin to actually think some of that stuff.

    I didn't make a big deal out of it.

    I'm just telling certain fans (obviously new and don't know where houston is on a map) that this section is about the Rockets.
