Lin has better vision and is a better playmaker than Ray? This is the 1st time I've ever seen him getting praise for that. I've seen Ray make bounce passes this year that I doubt Lin wouldve even tried last year and if he did it woulda got stolen. I guess I need to watch more of Houston this year cuz apparently Jeremy has gotten better...
Felton says no doubt hes better than Lin. Its not comparison

Lins he better athlete/finisher....from a wow perspective Felton probably has better passes but Lin sees the floor better and gets the ball up court faster. It's a more fluent type of ball. Him and Kidd would have been cool to watch.

Time to go!!
Lin has crazy accuracy on the outlet passes.
Harden is also a great player makers. This what i think truly makes Housotn special Their two best players are also great playmakers Bith are averaging 5+ assists. Harden would average more if Parsons would hit the three better and Asik stops with the reverse layups.

Haven't watched Lin, but it it would be hard not for someone to have played better than Felton these last few games. But I doubt Lin is playing better now than when Felton was healthy and his shot was dropping. All Felton needs to do is cut down on these poor shot attempts and we're good. He's still not turning the ball over and he runs the shyt out of the pick and roll, and I highly doubt if Lin was here that Tyson would be eating the way he is now.
and Lin has good court vision, that's news to me
Last year he was average and didn't show many flashes of being any better than that. There was a few times where Lin would miss or look off of our players when they were in good positions to score. He was good at finding and hitting our cutters to the basket though, and decent at running the pick and roll, but otherwise he was just adequate, not exemplary in any way. Lin was also a very streaky shooter too, just as bad as Felton is, which was kind of alleviated by his aggressiveness and his ability to get to the rim, he also didn't take the kind of bad shots that Felton is taking now though so I'll give him that too; But when Felton is on he's probably the better jumpshooter and can carry the offense at times.
I mean I can't really make a judgement on who's better right now though because I haven't been watching Houston, but that wasn't the point of me saying all of that, all I'm saying is that Felton has been able to replicate Lin's production from last year and then some, and that Lin didn't do enough to justify keeping him considering the salary hit we would take. So unless Lin starts balling out consistently at a high level, I can't say letting him go was a mistake, but I'm glad he's working out for you Houston fans.

Hard to defend Lin after that horrible playoffs performance.
2-0 in the games he missed.
0-4 in the games he played.

that heat game that ended Linsanity should've convinced everyone that Lin won't ever be a factor when defensive intensity picks up
there's a reason he skipped the 2012 playoffs vs the heat. he wouldn't have gotten that contract from y'all if he played

Felton is underrated, if you watch the knicks last season, you know how much they missed him when he wasn't available.
