    Exactly. I never was a fan of the tanking for 4th approach, could come back to bite the Rox in the ass by going into the playoffs in a funk. This team is not a vet team where they can just flip switches, people need to realize that. Don't like the kind of intensity/basketball that was on display tonight at all.

    i know we didn't have 3 starters, but i thought our effort was pretty poor. we didn't move the ball. i didn't like mchale's defensive assignments either, at all. really bad effort on both ends.

    Jordan built his legacy with a dominant midrange game.
    CP3's midrange is his bread and butter as well.

    Agreed, reproach is one thing, resentment is another. There's people here that have been waiting, salivating... for the day that Harden has a bad game.

    Posters can say I'm holding his jock strap, that's fine, can't deny that him & DM turned our franchise around though.

    Don't you know by now that he's the franchise scapegoat? We lose, Lin's fault. We win, despite of Lin's screw-up.

    The board is unbearable, Lin's fault. Well, he's a nice person and all, but his fans are annoying as hell. So I want him gone and he should take his fans with him.

    Did I say Lin sucks?

    BTW, did I forget to call you a LOF?

    I thought Asik did great. The problem is that with no TJones, and no DMo because of foul trouble, we had to play Casspi and Hamilton. I think Morey needs to get on the phone and call up Covington now.

    crappy that we lost, but no need to panic. Missing key players and those were two good teams we played

    lets suck it up and move on to the next

    Agree. More than enough blame to go around on this one. Sloppy, lazy, uninspired, dumb mistakes. I guess Asik's rebounding was a bright spot? Meh. I don't have a good feeling about this stretch of games coming up.

    Yup, it's also Lin's fault that Harden sucks at defense.

    I guess it is a vote of no confidence on Lin's defense even though has been playing well against Williams. The coaching staff simply out thought themselves.

    The person he was responding to didn't even mention Harden.

    Exactly! I really don't understand it. Lin played good defense on him before and he can't be any worse than how Parsons played against him.
