Re: LA Lakers introduce Jeremy Lin
So Maxxis switched from sponsoring the Rockets to the Lakers. Probably gonna cover the poison pill just like that.

Re: LA Lakers introduce Jeremy Lin
Interesting, two tall point guards that can play some SG......

And they allegedly kicked out all university players from 8 courts.
Good to hear! Better relationship, chemistry and communications; learn some moves (midrange?) and play some D along the way.

Re: LA Lakers introduce Jeremy Lin
Just guessing, but I bet they kicked everyone out because there were some non-Lakers players playing there too...
Never have rice at Hanzo's house...

Re: LA Lakers introduce Jeremy Lin
Well, I guess it depends on how "private" the private workout was!

Judging from the color scheme on the court, that's a Lakers practice facility, right?
Nice to see that they're letting him film the facilities and teammates. Maybe we'll get one of those behind the scenes vids like the ones he did while on the Rockets, when he showed a typical game day for the team or what happens on roadtrips.
The Nash bit was funny, too. Great line in the bloopers..."Rush Hour"

Re: LA Lakers introduce Jeremy Lin
How come all these guys pitched for the Dodgers but the Angels never invite anyone? Is it just down to Magic being the owner?

Clarkson's absolutely huge for a PG.
Would love to see Lin lead a really strong bench.

The Dodgers are LA's team. They play in LA. The Angels should never be apart of LA even if they change their names to represent that.

To be realistic, Clarkson is more of an SG.

Re: LA Lakers introduce Jeremy Lin
Jeremy Lin Not Interested in "Linsanity"
http://www.nbclosangeles.com/blogs/trip ... 51321.html
“Linsantiy is more like a one-off thing,” Lin explained. “It’s a short duration of time. I’m really looking to build a legacy, a long term thing, in terms of who I am as a person or who I am as a player.”
During his time in front of the cameras, Lin insisted on discussing defense far more than he spoke glowingly of “Linsanity.” In his first year with the Lakers and in the last year of his contract, Lin is determined to improve as a player and build a legacy that is beyond the short-lived craze that gripped New York during the tail-end of 2011.
“If at the end of my career, I’m still talking about ‘Linsanity,’ then I didn’t do a good job of my career.”

I think Lin has potential for a Lowry like career year in terms of scoring.

Re: LA Lakers introduce Jeremy Lin
This thread has outlived its time guys, create new topics when there is news and stop lumping everything lin related to this thread.
Just hard to keep up with the news in one mega thread.
