Western Conference Playoffs Pre-game Thread - Rockets @ OKC Game 2

Rockets @ OKC Game #2 Western Conference Playoffs Pre-game Thread

For the people who are panicking after one bad game by JLin, just look at the 36 min. career stats above of Russell Westbrook and Jeremy Lin. What's the difference? Westbrook has a much higher usage rate meaning he has the ball in his hands much more and thus shoots much more. Besides his higher usage rate and RW being a better rebounder than JLin, they're stats are basically identical at this point and both being 24 years old. Also, Westbrook has played for two more seasons and has played a ton more minutes overall and in the playoffs and he's had much better teammates.

Guys, lets remind ourselves why we believe in JLin. It's not just because he's Asian American and a mediocre player and talent. It's because he's A.A. and has the ability, talent, athleticism and heart, to truly be up there with the best point guards in the NBA. It may not happen in game 2, it may not happen in this series, but it will happen. I'll be driving the bandwagon when it happens and all the fair weather JLin fans can jump back aboard then.
