Sloan is woooorking Jeremy Lin. Being 0-6, 1ast, 1TO isn't helping either..

What a horrible game he's played, only one assist?. And he's played so well the last two. Deng!

Kobe can't hit anything... And Boozer, Hill, Davis and Lin are all 0-fer... Which "set" will correct that exactly?

Will for sure? Na, just give it a try.


0/6 Lin P&R with 0/4 Davis.... This is the solution we've all been waiting for...

Just because they're not scoring individually doesn't mean they can't work well together. Maybe try small lineup to spread the floor at the same time.

even with big 3rd, bench still had better +/-

Brent Barry just said what I said. Young guys have no damn excuse for slacking off just because it's a back to back.

Before tonight

Lin has been really bad on the second of back to back games this season. In 5 games he is averaging 6 points on 19% and 15% shooting. 4 assists to 3.4 to's.

it snowballed today to the point he was awful and the rook got his time in the 4th; **** makes no sense at 26

Ya, real disturbing. Psychological? Injured? Or has he put on too much muscle during the offseason?

This is really terrible.

And a lot of time, he plays either too fast or too slow. Gotta find a balance out there.

:facepalm:
So apparently he's been like this his entire career. He shoots 38% on B2B, but 46% otherwise. It's probably got nothing to with fatigue as it happens even when he plays very few minutes.

I'd take 38% easily over under 20% from the field and less than 15% from three. I don't expect him to always crank it up but I would like him to find a middle ground in general. Part of me wishes fish was here or we had an Andre Miller both of whom stayed in shape all the time. It's just weird for young legs to go out that often

OTOH, I'm quite glad he didn't start otherwise it'd probably look real bad, like he brought down the team or something. He didn't play well but the loss wasn't on him. The starters were losing 4-26 and when the bench came in they were 11-8 and at the end he got only -1. It was weird to see him going to the basket by himself with no one else moving except for Swaggy jacking up shots. It was a team thing and they probably partied real hard last night, spent a million or something. On the team plane:

Feel bad for him that he has to carry this much of the team at his age.

Maybe Kobe needs to stop shooting the bricks. No need to force any shots


What? Have you seen the rest of the team's FG percentage? He's taking the game upon himself. What else is he suppose to do?


That's what all selfish players do, take the game upon himself because his teammates were doing "bad"

The whole team laid an egg yesterday fellas. Not one player had it going but it just looked like the missed shots started to deter the guys and their confidence out there as the game progressed. These games happen but we seriously need to bring in another legit scorer (not boozer) into the starting lineup. These slow starts to games is a real serious issue

Ya, it's a real strange move to bring two defenders suddenly, leaving Kobe (old) as the only really capable offensive player. Should have just started Ed Davis long ago.

Scott should have brought someone in before the game was getting out of hand at 26-4, so he's putting the blame on the players but not himself? So he's really quite stubborn as someone has pointed out.
