    That ain't no excuse. Chris Paul was lights out in his first playoff experience including against the Spurs.

    Lin is okay. Average. Run of the mill. Dozens by the dime. Nothing special. Aight. So-so. Punitive. Benign.

    That is to say he's just another NBA player.

    His back up is outplaying him.

    Guards that can control sets and set up others are just hard to come by **cough BURKE cough**

    You expected Lin to be CP3?

    Sorry.

    He is avg., but he is the starting pg on a playoff team. Good for him doing what 14 other pg's couldn't.
    If you Jimmer it, they will come.

    Looks like Charles is right. This year's 1st round looks turrible. That doesn't say much for Lin making it to the playoffs if these first 2 days are an indication.

    Kenny Smith is right in saying that Lin isn't a bad player, he is just inexperienced.

    Lin's a solid player. Not bad, not special.

    Emeka Okafor - Joe Smith - Carmelo Anthony - Manu Ginobili - Jason Williams

    Al Jefferson - James Posey - Aaron McKie - Shaun Livingston

    This is one brutal game. The Rockets should burn the game film and just try to start fresh.
    Old fan. Tired fan. I want to believe.

    Always thought double fouls were weird.

    Hehe. Brilliant defense there.

    Christ. We could totally be on a level with the Clippers if we just had a lil' more dynamic edge. A quicker PG to get out and run. A stronger, more mature Davis, and another scorer.

    How many jump passes has CP3 thrown in this quarter alone? I can't believe some people used that as a reason to nitpick at Trey Burke's game. SMH

    It's an effective move in the post. Defense has to respect the attack to the hoop, letting the PG just wrap around pass for an easy bucket.

    And Eric Bledsoe's speed is...want. Hell. Need.

    Where is the awareness? Gasol was TRIPLE TEAMED. Two people are uncovered. SOMEONE MOVE. Give Gasol an outlet. Dullards.

    If only the Grizzlies had some kind of outside threat, even inconsistent. A guy who was 6'8" or so with tremendous hops.

    Unfortunately such a person would probably get paid a stupidly high max contract and thus not be cost effective. Which is more important than winning.

    Memphis offense has been terrible the last couple of minutes. I think the games I watch always feature the most offensively challenged teams of the postseason. Or maybe defenses are just too good these days, who knows.

    Tony Allen. Why the heck would he throw that pass? And Zach Randolph will always be in foul trouble in this series. Game starts with him having 3 PFs.

    I really can't believe that call on Z.

  24. #99
    Grizz offense has looked better with z bo out. I've been thinking they should go small or something. Put Bayless and let prince guard odom. Their spacing is awful

    There you go. Odom hands them the tie. Maybe there's more where that came from.
