Rockets & Sixers - Linsanity is back..

[Menses]

A Couple of things....

1 - Lin is much better with the ball in his hands...

2 - Beverly and Lin in the back court are a serious problem.....for the NBA

3 - Lin still weak on defense.

lol, they are losing to the sixers. get some sanity in your brain.

last time I checked they were up 7...in the 3rd....Lin with 25.....if the Rockets had an ounce of defense...they be unbeaten..

[TwoWays]

what matters for a team to win consistently is defense. none to be found all year.

I just dropped Lin night before he hit 31 pts.

Don't worry hes only getting the shots because Harden is out. It won't last long.

lol, true words. do not put lin back in your lineup when harden comes back. lin will be back to the bench averaging 8 attempts a game.

Am I the only one that thinks the sixers
Will win this?

LOL @ the Lin bashing fest going on in his thread...dude steps up when Harden is out and drops 30...and you tell him to go back to the bench...hahah....lotta nba rookies in this thread....When will people realize that Lin is most effective when he has the ball in his hands...Harden's presence obviously prevents this from happening...as he tends to play a lot of ISO ball/flopping antics to the rim....

They are both horrendous on defense..and this is one of McHale's biggest problems....which can all be alleviated if he were to play Lin and Beverly for a set number of minutes...but McHale does not have the balls to bench Harden for various minutes during the game...

sadly no...Houston defense always keeps other team in it....i think they hang on though

[TwoWays]

dude, it's fact. lin is coming off the bench this year with harden and beverly starting.

and he has 7 turnovers tonight. you will not beat any good teams turning the ball over that many times

[Git Lo]

Lin averages a good 5 turnovers a game, any player could have a bad shooting night but turn overs will get you benched. Lin is a good shooter, above avg passer, can drive to the basket, his 1 on 1 defense could use work, has help defense is very good but his ball handling skills need major work and that shouldn't be said for a point guard. He also has 2 other players on his team that need the ball in their hands.

[TwoWays]

lin only needs one more turnover to get to double digits. turnovers kill you in this league. wrong type of triple double.

[Menses]

Looks like Lin is going for a triple double.....in TO's

[NavsPicks]

Hou backers just got buried

[Menses]

Note to McFail ...Lin is gassed..put in garcia...dude played 40 plus minutes...

[Menses]

LOL...Rockets get burned the same way they did against the Lakers...hope this goes OT...so we can win by 6

[NavsPicks]

Hou ain't winning this game let
Alone by 6...

[Catch77]

This HOU team hasnt changed since last year. Living by the 3 and dying by it. I have PHI +7.5 because they give up leads and tire out in games. Hack a Dwight hasnt been a factor either though it will throughout the year.

[Catch77]

Win or lose this has been one of the best games Ive watched this year.

[TwoWays]

pathetic again by the rockets. lose to the 76ers, lakers and clippers(at home). individual offensive numbers don't matter as much as turnovers and perimeter defense. two things that seem to be more glaring this year than last.

[TwoWays]

you let 76ers anderson and tony wroten go off on you like that, 36 and 18 pts respectively. pathetic.

[Menses]

Rockets have given up a 100 points, 6 out of all 9 games they have played....Jesus
