Jeremy Lin is being bullied by his teammates and coaches.

I'm losing patience with McHale...

Where was the reminder to Beverly about having an additional timeout for the last possession against the Lakers? Why was Beverly inbounding anyway?

I'm annoyed with his rotations. Half the team has been totally buried.

I'm annoyed with the team's lack of preparation and starting games well.


C'mon McHale... let's go.

God, I've liked Lin this season so far, but his fans are even more insufferable this season.


TDS and Red94 do write some nice pieces, I then see some garbage ones as well. Also, reading TDS is often like reading a book report done the night before it's due. The post games and the summary is rarely written objectively. But, If you think they write so well, feel free to post some to me.

I track Chron and NBA/Rockets mainly because they are the direct Mouth of Sauron... err I mean management. They spew the propaganda that we need to know.

Also, I put "please delete" because I agreed to the mod to tone it down.

You don't need to get on my case about that too, and WTF with the last comment about Lin fans? You admit to being a Lin fan and hate yourself? OK bro... let me slowly walk away.

Chron put out 2 new pieces today, 1 is that Lakers fans hating and bullying Dwight on the interwebs. 2nd is Harden accepting the role of a leader despite losing to the Lakers.

Friedman had his manhood removed and not worth reading anymore. He's still a great writer, but he needs to write somewhere else.

McHale rolls in teflon like a pig in mud. Howard and McHale learned that bearing responsibility and accountability is for other guy.

Harden is still being coddled by the team, every mistake makes him stronger from the learning experience.

Jeremy is the one of the few players that deflect praise to his teammates and holds himself accountable for mistakes and works to fix them.

I really don't think that's accurate. I think every guy on the team is trying to get better and find their way... it's only been a handful of games. Let the season mature a bit.


Other than McHale who seems to be making glaring errors.

Ok, I'm sure you guys seen the threads on the general forums.

Does Harden have an attitude problem? His offensive production is great. Seem disinterested on defense or anytime he's not the main focus on the team.

Its this a phase, or a cancer?

Houston media not touching this one.

Feigan at the Chron put up a piece about Linsanity returning to NY. Jeremy on a tear with his hot shooting.

6 hours later, but up a second piece about Jeremy returns to NY playing great off the bench and role player. Credit McHale on his improved production. REALLY BRO?

At least we can be thankful they caught obvious spelling errors on these 2 pieces.

Jeremy coming off the bench has been great, McHale deserves the credit for that.

Lin is having a great season offensively.

McHale doesn't deserve any credit because doesn't bear responsibility when it doesn't work. Fair?

Also, Jeremy has started more games than he came off the bench. So, Jeremy is doing well regardless of his role. Bench, Starter, PG, SG, Towel Boy.

Doesn't bear responsibility? Are you **** kidding me?

There is a crusade against McHale after every play. No one gives him credit for anything.

as should be the case, get credit for doing your job right as a Coach?...ummm not

nothing new here... Coaches have always got the blame when their teams are not playing well..

to me its the Coaches responsibility to coach the damn team and get the players into line

its just these days we seem to have Diva basketball players who know they can get a Coach fired..

but then I would rather get fired trying to do my job right...

then to be captain Dunsel on a sinking ship

btw give Mchale credit for Lin doing well this year? putting up great numbers but the team takes a loss?

you sound like an LOF

even Lin seemed embarrassed by the 0 Assist, and the loss in the last 2 games

So, HOU media can't talk about this.

Do you blame Asik for refusing to play? Asik has now turned into the scapegoat. Ironically, people still use Jeremy as an example for Asik. That Asik should play from the bench and not complain.

Fans were still defending Asik up until the tip off of last night's game vs Denver. They were hoping that Asik was sick. McHale really struggled through last night's post game interview. He was stuttering more than normal and sometimes couldn't even finish sentences.
