Byron has been pretty consistent on letting Lin finish games when he's hot. That would undoubtedly interfere with the development of Clarkson, which at the end of the day, I think was a judgment call made by the FO.

Also what's with the hype around the jamychal dude, he didn't seem like anything special in garbage time. In fact, he looked kind of disinterested.

Posting pictures of tiananmen square. Classy.

I know Lin not getting playing time is hard for you guys but think before you post and stop being freaking stupid.

First of all, it's more about the picture closely resembling what happens. It has no intention of referring to the Tiananmen Square Incidence. A man and the tanks, that's it. It has no negative undertone and it's mainly for humor purposes, just like when I posted it before. My apology if I didn't make myself clearer, I did think about putting a "lol" laughing smilie but thought it wasn't a completely funny situation for many. I did Again, it's more of an artistic statement rather than any kind of criticism. It's about a classic photo and basketball; a man, being the only one who can single-handedly win games and disturb the tank. Nothing to do with politics.

Lin not getting PT isn't hard for me at all. I think it's a good opportunity for him to reflect, rest and get his act together. He's got everything, he's just gotta play relatively mistake free, tone down his TOs and do everything consistently. As for myself, seeing him struggling isn't cool at all, not watching is preferable actually.

Thanks for the honesty.
