i'm sure ya'll have seen these guys can work it out and be lethal together. but the growing pain is definitely visible. sometimes it's hard to watch. Lin can look like a total scrub who can't figure it out.
the bad stretch once again has reminded me that Lin is at his best when he plays with urgency. when lin is passive and constantly remind himself that he is a floor general then lin starts to suck. he is a free flowing slasher. he can't be methodical or calculating. what he needs to do is go out there and have a ride of his life. he needs to be instinctive and natural. he needs to stop thinking about how to be a pg. just ball. sometimes he need to say @$@##ck harden.
for harden, dude has no mid range game. it's either long range or his various iso attack which is great against pelicans of the world, but a none factor against good teams.
i still believe in Lin and i think he needs to take that next step to be a leader of the team. once he can do that, then i can really jump on lin & harden bandwagon. 2cents

McHale is a strange coach. The whole team is inconsistent tho. I mean Parsons and Patterson seem to have some kind of deal where only one of em play well at the same time. Lin seems to have ok games mostly than once in a while he has horrendous games and great games. Strange.
Re: Lin actually played well today 13/5/8asts/6stls
Harden and Lin are dribbling too much outside.
They should bring it up, throw it into the post to get some spacing outside, then have their post player kick it out and then do something.
Or attack quicker.
Too much dribbling, not enough passing.

No midrange game or not, Harden is light years ahead of lin idiot. Lin has no business being anywhere near Harden in the pecking order.
