This is hella frustrating when your PG is doing well and you sub him out early. WTF is that shit all about again. I thought McHale would learn from last game but apparently he has his blinders on. Once a 7 - 8 point lead is now 3 point lead.
Let's wait guys. If Lin doesn't start the 2nd quarter without Harden in then we can start complaining. But if you are going to separate a little bit Lin's and Harden's minutes than he needs to be subbed at around 4th minute mark. Sadly, Rockets are not the same without Lin in the court but he can't play 48 minutes.
But there was no reason to sub him out early. He wasn't tired and he was doing well for the Rockets. What team will sub out their starting PG when he is doing well. Tell me one single team except McFail Rockets.
See? He was back in in the 2nd minute mark. McHale is just finding the right rotations and I have no problem with that. I actually find that good. So let's see how he keeps on with the rotations tonight. It's very different than what I have seen him do but let's see how it works.
Annoucer said Rockets once had 12 point lead. Yeah, you dummy that was when Lin was in the game. Lin got subbed out and it went back down to 3 point lead.
I can only watch play by play, is that because of that turnover Lin got subbed out?
I usually see Lin get subbed out after a turnover or foul or a missed shot? Is this McHale's way of discipline (only seem to apply to Lin, not other players though)?
So unless Lin's prefect at shooting and not turn the ball over once, he gotta take a seat?!
Lin with the great PnR with Asik for the slam. 6 assists so far. According to the announcers from Houston, Omer will only catch balls above the letter. Below the waist, it's a crap shoot.
Chandler Bang! I hate how corny and original the announcers of Houston are. Lin with another assist. 7 assists. Lin back in and the lead is back to 8 points. McHale belongs to the NFC club.
Parsons was hot early but I don't like that they made him the focal point of the offense. He will cool off soon. Lin and Harden should be the focal points.
Come on, that's too easy. They have to state the obvious like you got to bounce the ball otherwise it's a travel or you got to shoot to get an attempt at the basket.
1. Jeremy Lin was not doing well in early quarters, bench him; 2. James Harden is not performing as expected, bench Jeremy Lin; 3. PG of opposing team is performing too well, bench Jeremy Lin; 4. SG of opposing team is performing too well, bench Jeremy Lin; 5. Opposing team has a good run, bench Jeremy Lin; 6. Coach is unhappy for the game being played, bench Jeremy Lin; 7. Other players need some play minutes, bench Jeremy Lin; 8. Coaches have bad mood that day for whatever the reasons, bench Jeremy Lin 9. If Rockets are leading by 10+ points and Lin has more than 10 points then bench him 10. If Harden needs to surpass 24 points then bench Lin 11. Favoritism is pounding in McHale's head then bench Lin 12. If the next pg to make the Rockets rotation then bench Lin to experiment with new pg toy 13. I want the Rockets to lose by letting Harden play hero ball then bench Lin 14. Harden has more than 5 TO then bench Lin 15. Kelvin Sampson does not like Jeremy body language, his positive attitude and unselfishness then bench Lin 16. Jeremy is hitting three consecutive shots and getting ready to goto Insanity mode then bench him 17. Ron Jeremy Lin is getting too many penetrations and his teammates are misfiring from his deep penetration and kick outs, bench him. 18. He just tweeted on twitter the previous night, bench him 19. He stands in the corner way too much based on coach instructions, bench him 20. Morey said something positive about Lin in his tweet, bench him.
Ok I have nothing against Harden, but he has this "won't take the risk of looking bad" type of defense. He doesn't want to go near the ball if the opponent has even the slightest advantage.
OK guys - I got it. McHale is conducting a scientific experiment. Question - is it true that the lead melts away if Lin is out of the game? Is it true that the lead goes up the moment Lin comes back into the game?
Seriously, this is a serious matter that les needs to address, this is an obvious injustice against lin. He did not do anything wrong and the sub is like a punishment for a fault not committed.worse, the team is losing the lead they had built with lin on the court.it's so hard to make fun of this now.jp2123, i hope u see our point when we complain after the game.dont be like mchale...
Lets go Lin!!!!
ReplyDeletego lin!
ReplyDeleteYeah! Beat them Jeremy!Make this an exciting game.
ReplyDeleteGame's on the Rox to lose.
ReplyDeleteworrell and clyde are the commentators so keep your volume on mute.
ReplyDeleteI was just thinking abt that. You read my mind.oh gosh this will be another unbearable commentating night.is there such a word ... Commentatibg?? Lol
Deletewow all CSN is bashing Lin
ReplyDeleteFucking ingrates.
DeleteKidd-Gilchrist #1 draft pick? What a bunch of clowns
DeleteIntro guy's a dickbag, too. Bart, I think.
ReplyDeleteGreat look from Lin to PPat for an easy assist and layup.
ReplyDeleteJeremy with a steal and a scoop layup off the back board for his first 2 points and steal.
ReplyDeleteJohn Ly is officially the jeremylin.net play-by-play announcer.
DeleteMaybe for the benefit of those who are muting their tv.. Hahah
DeleteThis game will be like the anniversary of Linsanity cause they wont have another game before feb 4. Happy anniversary Linsanity.
ReplyDeleteMcHale again letting Parsons handle the ball in the back court. Two players were ready to trap him. Dpn't know what that is all about.
ReplyDeleteGreat anticipation by JLin.
ReplyDeleteLin with another steal and another assist to Harden for a vicious dunk. 2 steals already. Looks like Lin is playing with some passion tonight.
ReplyDelete2 steal,s 2 points, 2 assists. It's deuces up for Ron Jeremy Lin.
DeleteLooks like a triple double.
Delete2nite.
DeleteJlin! DOminating
ReplyDelete8-2 run, 2 steals 3 assists. STUD!
ReplyDeleteJeremy Lin, enough said.
ReplyDeleteWow, every single starter has 2 points for the first 10! Never seen that before.
ReplyDeleteLin playing Miami Heat type defense
ReplyDeleteEveryone had a basket made.score is evenly divided amonst 5 players.
ReplyDeleteAll Rockets players are +10 so far.
Deletethat's zen.
DeleteLin with 5 assists so far and was responsible for tapping the ball back to Harden to keep the ball alive on the previous play.
ReplyDeleteKeep it comming John. Anouncers suck!
DeleteLin already replaced at the 5 min mark. WTF is McHale doing? Lin is playing great and the fucking douchebag with his dumbass substitution again.
ReplyDeleteI think because Lin looked too good out there so they need to ice him out
DeleteI think McHale must be consulting the 20 reasons to Bench Lin Guideline again. If he score more than Harden or is doing well then bench him.
Deleteyay lin got subbed early again
ReplyDeleteBad sub again. Lin is dealing.
ReplyDeleteLooked like Kemba fouled Lin on that rebound. Come on refs.
ReplyDeleteAll I can say is McHale still doesn't see the light and now Charlotte is on a run when Lin got substituted.
ReplyDeleteWhy not Greg Smith?
ReplyDeleteHe is experimenting again since Greg Smith plays bad defense.
DeleteOMG, Harden didn't even try to play defense on transition D and end up fouling and giving up an AND 1.
ReplyDeletehey he is our superstar so he can't do no wrong lol
DeleteHarden is an elite scorer and an elite let-people-scorer.
DeleteLOL. Great point Dave T.
DeleteToo early and untimely sub.i hope this doesnt kill jeremy's momentum.sigh out loud....SOL
ReplyDeleteThis is hella frustrating when your PG is doing well and you sub him out early. WTF is that shit all about again. I thought McHale would learn from last game but apparently he has his blinders on. Once a 7 - 8 point lead is now 3 point lead.
ReplyDeleteOCD!
DeleteWhy they took jLin out
ReplyDeleteThose guys are lost without Lin. My dream team -> 4 x Lins and one Harden. Eff it. 5 x Lins. We should clone Lin!
ReplyDeleteThen they will be passing all day to one another until the 24 clock times out.
Delete7 x Lins, you forgot about McHale and Sampson.
DeleteBS. 4 Lins play D and one goes SUPERLINTENDO! Sure win!
DeleteLast one was for John
Delete@Racha:
5 x Lins dont need coaching.
LOL, Oh ok.
DeleteLet's wait guys. If Lin doesn't start the 2nd quarter without Harden in then we can start complaining. But if you are going to separate a little bit Lin's and Harden's minutes than he needs to be subbed at around 4th minute mark. Sadly, Rockets are not the same without Lin in the court but he can't play 48 minutes.
ReplyDeleteBut there was no reason to sub him out early. He wasn't tired and he was doing well for the Rockets. What team will sub out their starting PG when he is doing well. Tell me one single team except McFail Rockets.
DeleteIn bball you play with momentum and the hot hand. You don't sit your hot player.
DeleteAgree!
DeleteSee? He was back in in the 2nd minute mark. McHale is just finding the right rotations and I have no problem with that. I actually find that good. So let's see how he keeps on with the rotations tonight. It's very different than what I have seen him do but let's see how it works.
DeleteI disagree. You rest your hot player and you cut your lead. What dumbass coach would do that?
DeleteHe destroyed the momentum. If you have no problem with giving away a 11 point lead...
DeleteI forgot the dumbass coach is McHale.
DeleteC'mon guys stop wondering why Lin got subbed early again. Lin was too good out there
ReplyDeleteUgh, makes you wonder
DeleteKemba was having a tough time with Lin. Now hes taking it to the rim.
ReplyDeletefirst Rox center alley-oop sighting!?
ReplyDeleteLin sub out early over and over again .Probably need harden to score .Its not gonna change that.
ReplyDeleteYou know its going to Lin's fault again when Kemba lightin it up, even when he is on the bench
ReplyDelete'MERICA
Lin kept him to 1 of 3 in 7 minutes. Look where Kemba's at now. And look at the score.
ReplyDeleteJLin putting the smack down on Simba.
DeleteThis guy McHale is an idiot. He sub Lin back in after the score is close to a 3 point lead.
ReplyDeleteIt's like the coach trying to ice the kicker in football.
DeleteNow Lin have to handle hot Kemba, McHale is genius
ReplyDeleteFinally Lin without Harden!!! And Cole!
ReplyDeleteAnnoucer said Rockets once had 12 point lead. Yeah, you dummy that was when Lin was in the game. Lin got subbed out and it went back down to 3 point lead.
ReplyDeleteLin splitting two defenders and still got the layup on the right side. He's a man with a mission.
ReplyDeleteNice!!!
DeleteI can only watch play by play, is that because of that turnover Lin got subbed out?
ReplyDeleteI usually see Lin get subbed out after a turnover or foul or a missed shot? Is this McHale's way of discipline (only seem to apply to Lin, not other players though)?
So unless Lin's prefect at shooting and not turn the ball over once, he gotta take a seat?!
Nah, the sub was normal. He usually gets taken out around 7 minutes into the first.
DeleteSee McHale's guidelines to bench Lin.
DeleteHow did Lin get a TO? I did not see the TO. It got saved by Harden if that TO was referred to the errant pass.
ReplyDeleteHe caught a defensive rebound, and Kemba stripped him.
Delete24 shot clock violation, Parson didn't want to take the shot and gave the ball to Lin
DeleteI didn't see a strip. I saw Kemba crashed into his body and he coughed up the ball. No call.
DeleteYeah, that's the one. He essentially gave him a mugging. But meh.
DeleteExactly how I saw it too John Ly. Refs missed that one.
DeleteOr perhaps the TO was when Kemba jumped into him and fouled him (with no call) and he coughed up the ball.
ReplyDeleteYeah, that one.
DeleteGood job Jeremy! Re-establishes a 5 point lead!
ReplyDeleteLin got a defensive rebound stolen from him. I think that's the sole TO so far
ReplyDeleteLin made that 1st quarter closer look so easy.
ReplyDeleteDid anyone else see the Asian girl in blue taking a video of Lin on her iPhone? She's hot!
??? you gotta capture that and upload for us!
DeleteHaha, Kenoshi - it's at the end of q1, as Lin walks back to the bench after his layup. I don't know how to cut videos/upload.
DeleteI lke the way cole is attacking the rim. He seems to be a better paint player than asik.those 2 dunks are promising.
ReplyDeleteAsik moving to the basket and JLin with the dime. That's what I like.
ReplyDeleterolling to the basket.
DeleteLin with the great PnR with Asik for the slam. 6 assists so far. According to the announcers from Houston, Omer will only catch balls above the letter. Below the waist, it's a crap shoot.
ReplyDeletePARSONS!!!
ReplyDeleteCan asik just dunk that darn ball the way cole did? What is so hard abt that when you are 7 footer?
ReplyDeleteChandler Bang! I hate how corny and original the announcers of Houston are. Lin with another assist. 7 assists. Lin back in and the lead is back to 8 points. McHale belongs to the NFC club.
ReplyDeleteNFC?
DeleteNo Fucking Clue.
DeleteLOL
Deleteback to 8 points lead again, Lin looked too good again, expect bench soon
ReplyDeletehahahaaa
Deletetold ya, lead will be blown again
Deletenil and snosrap are doing it 2nite...and kisa too.
ReplyDeleteThat Parsons dunk! WOW!! Sidenote: Is Lin going to have a career high assist tonight? Hoping for 20?
ReplyDeleteHe won't have a career high anything with Harden and McHale there. Coach won't let anyone overshadow the all-star.
DeleteLin in control. Michael Jordan getting to see Lin in play
ReplyDeleteThe Rockets are doing well now but when do you all think McHale will sub out Lin and Asik, namely the guys who are playing well? Probably soon lol.
ReplyDeleteLin, Harden, Asik, Morris and Parsons back in the line up after the Bobcat time out.
ReplyDeleteLin with another great pass to Parsons and he couldn't finish, but he got the foul call. No assist.
ReplyDeleteParsons looks more and more like Fields!
ReplyDeleteHe is 2x better than Fields. He is more versatile.
DeleteLol Walker burns Harden with a cross.
ReplyDeleteParsons was hot early but I don't like that they made him the focal point of the offense. He will cool off soon. Lin and Harden should be the focal points.
ReplyDeleteYeah and the announcers are going overboard comparing him to Michael Jordan LOL
DeleteWeird sub why is TD in right now?
ReplyDeleteBecause Rockets are leading. McHale wants to be challenged.
DeleteAlso Lin is in jeopardy of breaking a triple double tonight. McHale needs to slow that down.
DeleteMcHale is mentally challenged? Oh sorry, he wants to be challanged
DeleteIts Lins fault. He suffers from Cinderella syndrome. Whenever he looks good stepmother McHale sees reason to interfere!
DeleteGreat analogy willy. This board is ON FIRE tonight, just like Lin.
DeleteSo true, it's like "Oh no! you are not going to look today... not ever... not under my watch. So go sit your butt!"
DeleteOkay...9 point lead and Lin got subbed out again. Douglas back in. Let's see how long this lead will last again.
ReplyDeleteWow. Another lame lame substitution
ReplyDeletewhat is Mchale thinking?
ReplyDeletehe is on another planet....
I love Lin's defense as the clock runs down. He always knows when there's no more time for a pass and goes to contest the shot.
ReplyDeleteHarden turning the ball over, bench Lin!
ReplyDeleteTOtally!
Deletelol... he has like 10 assists at the half only cause some missed layupts.. what is mchale doing? unless Lin is unfit? which i doubt. Fuck me Mchale.
ReplyDeleteHouston announcers suck.
ReplyDelete"You need to put points on the board"
NO SH*T SHERLOCK!
Come on, that's too easy. They have to state the obvious like you got to bounce the ball otherwise it's a travel or you got to shoot to get an attempt at the basket.
DeleteHarden made a TO parsons committed a foul and jeremy got subbed?
ReplyDeleteThat's the strategy! Go McHale!
DeleteIts Lins fault. He suffers from Cinderella syndrome. Whenever he looks good stepmother McHale sees reason to interfere!
DeleteHopefully Bobcats go on a 10-0 run with lin on the bench
ReplyDeleteWould you settle for an 8-4 run? :D
DeleteLin is totally in control this game. He could get 15 assists and TD is playing awful today
ReplyDeleteI just know that because Lin didn't score for a while he would get subbed out. McHale didn't think a PG, an assist man, a passer is important lol.
ReplyDeleteIts Lins fault. He suffers from Cinderella syndrome. Whenever he looks good stepmother McHale sees reason to interfere!
DeleteHe always takes Lin out to get Harden going. Lin and Harden can play together. It's totally McHale and Sampson who are ruining this.
ReplyDeleteAgree!
DeleteHardon not running with the pack, and then went for ISO. boring...
ReplyDeleteBut he's elite!
Deletesorry, me just start watching NBA, did not know that's standard elite play, sorry
DeleteHarden owned again by Walker.
ReplyDeleteWhy did Lin go out again?
THats a rhetorical question right? :)
DeleteWalker blows past Harden...
ReplyDeleteBENCH LIN!
He is benched already. They need to move Lin down further on the bench because of Harden.
DeleteLin to the locker room?!
DeleteLin to be water boy.
DeleteWhy not let Lin serve candy to the celebrities?
DeleteWalker just blew by Harden again for an easy layup. Nice D Haren. There shouldn't be a D in your name because you don't play D.
ReplyDeletehate to see walker get high especially this is marked as "revenge game"
DeleteJames Haren?
Delete9pt lead down to 5.
ReplyDeleteGJ guys.
Oh wait, I'm suppose to root for Rox...My bad.
Does McHale love Douglas because he shoots a lot?
ReplyDeleteFor your amusement ladies and gentlemen.
ReplyDeleteBenching Jeremy Lin Guideline
1. Jeremy Lin was not doing well in early quarters, bench him;
2. James Harden is not performing as expected, bench Jeremy Lin;
3. PG of opposing team is performing too well, bench Jeremy Lin;
4. SG of opposing team is performing too well, bench Jeremy Lin;
5. Opposing team has a good run, bench Jeremy Lin;
6. Coach is unhappy for the game being played, bench Jeremy Lin;
7. Other players need some play minutes, bench Jeremy Lin;
8. Coaches have bad mood that day for whatever the reasons, bench Jeremy Lin
9. If Rockets are leading by 10+ points and Lin has more than 10 points then bench him
10. If Harden needs to surpass 24 points then bench Lin
11. Favoritism is pounding in McHale's head then bench Lin
12. If the next pg to make the Rockets rotation then bench Lin to experiment with new pg toy
13. I want the Rockets to lose by letting Harden play hero ball then bench Lin
14. Harden has more than 5 TO then bench Lin
15. Kelvin Sampson does not like Jeremy body language, his positive attitude and unselfishness then bench Lin
16. Jeremy is hitting three consecutive shots and getting ready to goto Insanity mode then bench him
17. Ron Jeremy Lin is getting too many penetrations and his teammates are misfiring from his deep penetration and kick outs, bench him.
18. He just tweeted on twitter the previous night, bench him
19. He stands in the corner way too much based on coach instructions, bench him
20. Morey said something positive about Lin in his tweet, bench him.
Lin should clue a bench to on his behind. This way he can play whilst being benched fulltime!
Deletelol
DeleteLol Lin back in again.
ReplyDeleteCracks me up.
Ok I have nothing against Harden, but he has this "won't take the risk of looking bad" type of defense. He doesn't want to go near the ball if the opponent has even the slightest advantage.
ReplyDeleteLead is back down to 5. Time to insert Lin to save job. That's McHale's mantra.
ReplyDeleteLike clockwork
DeleteUh oh, I feel a benching coming on. Lurch is roaming the side line because Lin picked up another foul when it should have been a kick ball on Asik.
ReplyDeleteLol
ReplyDeleteLove his midrange Js
I'm so happy Jeremy passed up the three for a closer shot.
DeleteLin is really shooting well at the top inside the 3 point circle. He should be shooting that often.
ReplyDeleteOK guys - I got it. McHale is conducting a scientific experiment. Question - is it true that the lead melts away if Lin is out of the game? Is it true that the lead goes up the moment Lin comes back into the game?
ReplyDeleteSo far the results show a double positive.
hahaha
DeleteMcHale is playing musical chair with Lin. He is playing musical Lin.
DeleteWow that was mad foul.
ReplyDeleteWTF REFS LIN GOT CLOTHESLINED!
Jeremy says eff McHale I'm shooting the midrange jumper. (and hits)
ReplyDeleteNo foul call when Lin got pushed. Must be the token Asian guy not getting the call from the token black guy pushing him.
ReplyDeleteThat was such an obvious foul too.
DeleteSigh, what's new
DeleteYeah. Lin should be 3-3. Jumper looking awesome
ReplyDeleteParsons rescued that TO
ReplyDeleteChemistry baby.
So is this a coincidence?
ReplyDeleteLin comes back in lead is now 11.
Hmm...
and 2 + 2 = 5.
DeleteWe're looking for a spark.
DeleteMcHale Math = Sampson 1 + 1 = Self Inflicted wound
DeleteWow. Lin and Asik are +16
ReplyDeleteWhoops. Lin +18 now
DeleteTD back in at 30sec?!
ReplyDeleteMan I am lost.
McHale thought bubble:
ReplyDelete"WHAT THE HELL - IM BORED - LETS SUB LIN - AGAIN!
Jeremy scored a the end of the 1st. Can't allow that to happen again!
DeleteMcHale is playing duck duck goose with Lin and TD.
DeleteI'm not watching th game. Is the box score right? Harden 2 for 3 field goals?!
ReplyDeleteAre they double teaming and leaving Parsons open?
DeleteSeriously, this is a serious matter that les needs to address, this is an obvious injustice against lin. He did not do anything wrong and the sub is like a punishment for a fault not committed.worse, the team is losing the lead they had built with lin on the court.it's so hard to make fun of this now.jp2123, i hope u see our point when we complain after the game.dont be like mchale...
ReplyDeletejp2123 -> McHales wife. Im pretty sure!
DeleteAt this substitution rate Lin is gonna lead the NBA in subs per game.
ReplyDeleteUh Oh, they interviewing Sampson. He has NFC what the hell he is talking about. He belongs to the same NFC club as McHale.
ReplyDeleteAGAIN - what does NFC mean?
DeleteHe doesn't want Lin to break 10 assists in 1st half.
ReplyDeleteWatch, ball is going to Harden 2nd half to keep him at 8.
Because at the pace Lin is going he'd have 20. God forbid Lin should look better than Harden.
Jeremy getting CHEATED by refs and scorers AGAIN.
ReplyDelete...and he's still dominating like he's CP3 out there.
I know it's the Bobcats, but when you're getting hosed by refs, it's still impressive.
Was Sampson talking about Harden?
ReplyDelete
