yes fisher help us get back in this game
Uh, more importantly, it cost the Rockets 4 points...
old man fisher lol
Ariza was a good player but a bad fit. Just like Jeremy Lin. Asking Lin to be a spot up shooter is like asking Ariza to be the star on your team.
Yep. He has all the makings of a superstar. He's got the inside-outside game, the ability to draw fouls (the two are closely linked), he just...
At this point James Harden is not a superstar, only an all-star. He needs to shoot better and be able to shoot over anybody, for one. Superstars...
How does this even relate to my point except in the vaguest of terms?
Let Lin initiate the first play and if it doesn't work Harden can break down the second one and hopefully score/draw fouls on rotating mismatches....
Yeah, we hate on him online, but if half of you were to meet him while shopping you'd go from "who does this scrub think he is!" to "oh royce, i...
Well it seems my opinions differ vastly from the majority of fans on this website. I can respect that. I just wanted to say something I've been...
You could argue that James Harden has performed equally bad relative to the expectations we've put upon him.
No, I wasn't aware. As you can see, I joined in 2008, not 1994. But personally I just find it hypocritical to have one of our players be benched...
Pointing to wins doesn't really do justice to what I'm trying to say. There is a lot more that goes into winning a game than the rotations of the...
Exactly. The respect shown to Harden is completely off the charts, while Lin gets none of it.
PG*, my bad. Just give the players a modicum of consistency so they can get into rhythm. That's the biggest issue I have with Sampson as a coach.
Harden is a much better player than Lin, no doubt. But just because one player is better than another, he gets a longer leash? The Rockets...
...as the third option on a stacked team , yes.
It's a matter of balancing trust and reward. I do believe it's quite chaotic. NBA players have played enough basketball games in their high school...
Again, I'm not a Jeremy Lin fan, so I'm not trying to "get" Jeremy Lin to play well. The major incentive for bench players to play well is to...
Though Sampson has done the "right" thing to reward those who do well by letting this stay in the game, it does make things difficult for the...
