It's early but he needs to pick it up. I really hope he does. Also, Those complaining about Harden hurting his game I do not believe James played the 2nd half. I missed the 1st 4 minutes.
he won't end up on the bench, the rockets are rebuilding with he, harden and asik... lin is averaging 7 dimes and almost 5 boards a game with almost 3 steals, he isn't going to any bench.... he is a shade under 11ppg.. once his shooting gets a bit better, you will see his scoring go up a bit... Harden was sick and should not have played at all tonight... he didn't play in second half..
You really make up a lot of excuses for Lin and Harden. I get being a fan but bruh come on. Lin and more so Harden are now leaders of that team. Plus they are suppose to be players that make people around them better. IF Harden is a supa star beast why isn't he carrying the rockets which has a good team. I do watch the Rockets so lets not go "you must not watch their games". Harden was a decent defender but with that added pressure of being the alfa that has disappeared and yes he gets asst but he also turns the ball over.
Bottom line: Lin and Harden needs to step up. I hope Lin does and although I am not a Harden fan I don't want to see him fail.
I think you just like seeing yourself type... what excuse did I make... the rockets are not benching him, they don't have better options.. do you even watch the games? yes, I am going down that road... both he and harden are kids, they will figure it out, they have a lot to learn and much room to improve, non one denies that. stop creating arguments.... I have seen every game they have played.... they play hard, they compete and they make mistakes, hopefully they will cut down on those, that is when they will take the next step.... now that I got that covered anything else you want to add?

It’s becoming a habit. For the second time in four games, Jeremy Lin spent the decisive minutes on the bench.
Here I go again posting because I love to see myself type. The guy needs to play his game. Hopefully Lin will have one more bad game on Friday then turn it around.
again, lin is a starter, I think you are well aware of what we are talking about when we mention "benching a player".. stop trying to save face.... sampson likes douglas defense late in games.... and lin is not shooting well, but he will continue to start and get minutes, he is not getting bench in the sense we were talking about.. stop trying to play shell games...
if he continues on this path he will get the hook sooner and sooner. Not playing shell games. Its ok to be wrong and admit it. He was benched just like I said he might be if he did not improve. Who gets benched for Toney Douglas? It's not just the offense Houston is concerned about but his D because its not like DOuglas is going to be that much better than a poor shooting Lin.
lin wasn't benched.. when toney douglas is starting the game instead of lin, come see me about who is wrong or right...
LOL. You are one of the best posters on here. Keep doing what you do.
haha, as they say.. "I gotta do me".... have a safe thanksgiving.....
There is only room for one of those type of posters here. No, not the ones that pour their heart out when the team is struggling to point out things that we can change. Not that type of poster. The poster I am talking about is one that has negativity up his sleeve all the time. Team is off to the best start ever? Well, you gotta keep your composure and not let the homerism kick in . You gotta find negative things that are supported by some basketball insight. You know, good old basketball insight. Except tkf, there is no insight in your posts. Of course, if we were doing worse you could have had a field day. But it don't matter how well we are doing and what we actually need to improve upon. From my perspective, and I could,of course be wrong, but you just seem to find a way to push your agenda no matter what. Constructive criticism? Far from it. Just more cliches.
