Don't Be Hurtin' Lin - The Jeremy Lin Thread 2

[lin is ok]

I've been begging for at the very least, 25 minutes for JLin and about 15 minutes as the PG..We got both tonight...Let's hope the past 2 games are the new normal instead of a fling....Kemba should not be playing 35-38 in any night..unless he's scoring and dropping dimes.

Kemba was sick tonight, so this may not be the new norm...Let's hope not.

yea i hope it's like this for the other games also. easier for lin to get into rhythm, play him with those cartoon minutes, even his team mates will start treating him like a cartoon character.

[Liver_Pooty]

Tonight is not the norm. Walker will get 34 to 37 minutes a night. Maybe more.

[Mystical Apples]

Lin's minutes are fairly predictable. Just scan the opponents backup pg to find out. "Oh, Steve Blake yeah Lin's gonna get some extra run."

Mark Cuban says Porzingis is not like Jeremy Lin: "Porzingis is the real deal. He's got some **** to him. That's the difference."

Well...someone's salty.

Lin will be back

I don't see the salty thing. I see what he said is true. Real deal = Champs for the owners in the NBA. Cuban once said Lin is Nash-like one who needs a right system and right teammates to perform like a star. MVPs like Nash couldn't even bring a ring to his owner and it proved his point.

Food for thought.

$90 million PG Jackson limited to 4 pts. in 12 min mostly because of Lin D.

lmao, what stuff u n cuban been smoking, the Knicks are slowly but sure joining the lottery.

[Diop]

why in the world were they comparing Porzingis to Lin?

[rayfantastic]

So with his shots off, and not running the floor, has Lin become a defensive specialist Now?

[BlackOutBuzz]

I guess comparing Lin/Zingisanity?

It really just sounds like Cuban wanted an excuse to deride Lin, presumably for spurning the Mavs this offseason.

"The Charlotte Hornets signed Jeremy Lin, despite having Kemba Walker at the same position — now they’re clashing and the team is suffering."

All I needed to read was the headline to know this wasn't worth reading.

Yeah, let's not post sports articles or rumors from websites like Sportige or Christian post or Master Herald or Latin Post, as if these are legitimate sites. These are just random bloggers/writers who are trying to get hits.

The only thing that matter is WIN. If the team is winning, then nothing else matter.

True, I do have want some improvement, like Kemba chuck less and coach stop utilizing Lin as camper (I think this is Lin's problem as well). TBH, both Kemba and Lin are played out of position. Kemba is a PG but playing like a SG, Lin want to play as PG but using as spot up shooter when both were on the court. With Kemba playing 40 minutes a game, Lin will be playing out of position and probably a lot less minutes. Nick will continue to be point

You're only a chucker if the shots don't go in.

I don't know about that. Crawford is a chucker, sometimes a lot of his shots go in. Sometimes now. Kemba is doing less chucking than previous seasons.

Jeremy just put up a facebook post in response to this month's The Atlantic article on Silicon Valley suicides. He talks about the suicide of the classmate that sat next to him in high school.

Another firsthand game report from the JLinForum guy. This one discusses the progression that he's seen during Jeremy's pre-game warmups with respect to the changes in his shot form.

[ChokeFasncists]

Now that his D is good, once he gets his shot going, TO would be the only remaining problem.

That Palo Alto article is a long dark read......

[bws94]

TOs aren't all that much his problem. He had 1 in the last game, 0 the game before. Really, it's more his ball handling and getting too amped up and going too fast at some parts of his game. Then there is decision making which is sometimes head-scratching. And I think Lin's biggest problem is sometimes he is one of the best players on the court but instead of putting the team on his back and making plays, he inexplicably holds back and seems to give the ball to guys that aren't as good at some of what he does to do. It's like he doesn't know or respect his own talent.

But he'll be alright. His shot falls he has more versatility in his offense and doesn't have to dribble around as much.
