It's retarded. People equate cheap shots and thuggish bullshit with "toughness". Chicago ain't tough, and Miami has no trouble obliterating them in a series. For all the so-called "tough defense", what did they win against us in the playoffs last season, 1 game? Yet a team like San Antonio that plays REAL defense, not thug shit, and we fought tooth and nail with.

Defense wins championships, and Chicago doesn't have any of it. All they have is a bunch of goons that "play hard" but will never win a ring, even with Rose back. Miami might have an even easier time with them now that they can clamp down their defense on just one player and choke them out.

Actually, I disagree. Chicago is a great defensive team but they won't be able to sustain intense defensive pressure in a seven game series nor will they be able to score the ball consistently. They'll win a handful of games against the Heat, but have no chance of winning the series.

Just for the record Hardaway Jr has hit a game winner in 100 percent of the NBA games he's played in. Future superstar? All signs point to yes.

First image I saw was Dwight throwing an elbow on offense.

So Lin is not a starter any more or just this game?
Click to expand...

My guess is that he would be coming off the bench.

But I seriously expect Harden's minutes to be managed better this season. Him playing almost 40 minutes a night basically killed him before the playoffs even rolled around. So I expect Lin will still get a lot of playing time.

Yes he had 1 good year in his entire career. And it wasn't even that good. The idea that a washed up Aaron Brooks is better is completely ludicrous.

Lin looked good tonight. Bev should start.

As compared to Lin who had 20 good games in his entire career?

If there's one thing that Mike Antoni is good at, it is artificially inflate the value of his crap players. Look at how much Earl Clark is getting paid.

Does darkside know that Lin lost his starting job to Beverley this morning, who was picked up out of Russia?
Click to expand...

Uh yeah?

Beverley looks like hes going to be a special player. He should be starting.

Is that supposed to be a knock or what? Morey is just good at his job.

Bev's style is more suited to starting as well anyway. I think Lin would do quite well coming off the bench in a Manu type of role.

True story.

Brooks had better number than Lin in the playoffs last season.

In half the minutes.

They even played on the same team.

Great and what the fuck does that have to do with this season or anything going forward?

I guess you're advocating trading Parsons because he played worse than Francisco Garcia in the playoffs last season.

Why are you so transfixed on a 4 game sample size?

They looked awesome together. Dirk and Monta have looked better together these two preseason games than mayo and Dirk did at any point last season. I think Montas game will fit even better with Dirk than Jets game did

He's clearly advocating Brooks should somehow get playing time over Lin.

This summer. Scola will do great things for the Pacers in the playoffs.

Yeah Lin sucks so he should be off the bench. He's not even as good as Brooks.

Brooks shouldn't even make the team over Canaan.

I'm not saying Lin is great. But hes clearly better than Brooks and 1 of the 2 best options they have at PG right now.

I said Brooks is better than Lin, but not by much. It's funny how you keep saying Brooks is trash, which is true. That only proves our point that Lin is trash too.

Whatever. I think Jeremy will have a good year coming off the bench. He'll win most improved player of the year. If Aaron Brooks can do it so can Lin.

I saw the game. The only thing I really took away is how fucking good Anthony Davis is going to be.

Also saw the media interview Ryan Anderson had before the game. That shit was hard to watch. I hope he gets through everything okay.
