*files paperwork for Jeremy Lin*

[Long Live The Kane]

whose making excuses?

i guess you missed this huh?

can you read?



again



he's getting rebounds, assists with a low usage, steals and keeping his turnovers down. all he needs to do is shoot better, how is that an excuse?

i'm not one of those delusional people that expected him to be a star. potential wise i see him being a decent starter AT BEST.

You a rockets fan? You're okay with your team passing on two far better players in Dragic and Lowry...for the privilege of overpaying an unproven novelty player whose ceiling in your eyes is to one day be a "decent" starter?

Lin:
10.5pts 6.6ast 4.5rb 2.6to 0.34fg% 0.24 3pt% 8.3mil/year

Dragic:
16.3pts 7.3ast 2.9rb 2.2to 0.47fg% .340 3pt% 7.5mil/year

Lowry:
18.3 6.3ast 5.8rb 2.9to .554fg% .440 3pt% 5.7mil/year

Or do you value the rockets possibly being a draw in China over actually being a good team too?

 

[feelosofer]

Anyone saying this hasn't seen Rockets, outside of James Harden the team is offensively trash. He's not shooting well but the dude is a decent passer and plays solid defense. It's not his fault the team can't convert his passes.

why did i get so many negs....You Melo fanboys are too sensitive mane...

[nalej]

if last year's streak was the best we've seen from him, talk about good timing to have that streak. dude is now set for life.

That's what ima do to the next nikka that disrespects the great Larry Holmes with one of these idiotic ass threads...

After 20 games "it's too early"
After 50 games " he's done, he's garbage"

A lot of people showing off that it was never about whether he was for real, but about looking like an informed analyst. Basically...it's a lot of Stephen A Smith's and Skip Bayless's in here.

He's not doing most of the things that led to him being one of the better players on the Knicks last year, and if that comes back he'll definitely be considered starting material again. He's turning over the ball at an acceptable rate and had gotten decent assist numbers with trash offensive players. Guarantee whenever Asik learns how to put the ball in the basket, Lin will have some of the better assist numbers in the league.

I also think his knee is still ailing him....D'Antoni ride him to the ground and might have killed his growth because of it. Hopefully that's not the case. I'd like to see him play well by the end of the year

why are you riding this hard for Lin ? You didn't even give Felton this much of a chance when we resigned him @JMurder .
The guy didn't have some life altering surgery he should be fully healed by now , you can't Blame dantoni for running him into the ground he wouldn't be linsanity either without him either Lin will be most likely just a ok player who will also be overpayed. I'm more than happy with what we have

For real. I can only imagine if we had re-signed him. We'd be 3-5, or 4-4, with Lin playing mediocre, and of course it would all be the negroes fault --- woody n melo. Ny talk radio would sound like a lynch squad --- damn that would have been a debacle.

Gotta give it up to Knick management and ownership. They took a lot of heat letting Lin bounce. Hows it working out so far?

All I know is I saw Lin benched for Douglas in overtime on bleacher report they blaming harden and saying how Lin is so much more intelligent than anyone else not racial overtones at all . He's not as explosive and he's not even as quick as last year plus for some reason he's hesitant picking his dribble up early .

Asian fan base >> winning games actually this deseves a the most slept on post . The beauty is harden and asik will get all the blame while Lin will be afforded every excuse to prove himself

 

[NY's #1 Draft Pick]

like who?

It's only two people I recall who definitively wanted Lin over Melo, one of them hasn't even posted in this thread yet

Melo haters... There's a lot of em in here. Talkin bout y'all sure melo an Lin could work together ? Melo a ball stopper.. Melo gonna mess up the chemistry. Smh

Yeah man...sht is disgustin'. I guess they dont feel like Black people are smart enough to pick up on that kind of rhetoric, and understand its implications. His fans and many in the media, literally view him as sacred. So glad all of that is Houston's issue now.

Hes obviously talented, 'cause duke went nuts during Linsanity, but I dont think his body is built for the day to day rigors of the NBA. He couldnt come back from basic knee surgery last year and gut it out. Looks like he's already lost a step.

 

[McPiff]

so you wanna put him in the flabbynsick company & friends just 10 games into the season?

That's what made me start giving Lin the the Media treatment when he left was insane . You would think we let cp3 go I think he will be solid, but the Tim Tebow love from non hardcore fans who want a feel good story is annoying . And Asian fans who say ridiculous stuff repeatedly in every article about how he's the best pg
it's like the same way he sees racism he doesn't think black players see the racism in the constant praise of his intelligence humility and unselfishness.yet you have a team willing to let two not one two above average Pgs for a unproven player how do you think it makes other players feel
Also his surgery recovery was what 5-8 weeks . Why is his knee still week ??? Did he get anothe surgery I missed
