anybody watching the rockets-heat game?
Lin's job now is to pass the ball to the alpha dog and camps on the 3pt line, aka Derek Fisher
.......without the defense and clutchness :roll:

Derek Fisher is an awful defender. Jeremy Lin is a much better defender. It is one thing he is doing well this year

Lin has 6 assists. Too many to be a Derek Fisher.

But yea, Houston is killing Lin's value every day

The alpha/beta male dynamic naturally exists as a means of evolutionary survival in nature. Of course Lin is going to pass the ball off to the alpha (Harden). Harden is better at creating scoring opportunities for himself and for others. I'm not saying that Lin is bad in that regard, but why go with his seedless grapes when Harden has the superior seed.

His value to whom? They weren't going to trade him, he's most valuable to them playing a secondary role to Harden
