I'm not ready to go that far. Sessions might be able to match Lin in driving into the paint and getting to the FT line, but that's about where the comparisons stop. Lin does basically every other part of the game at a higher level - defense, passing - being the two biggest.

And lets not forget, not many players in the league have the ability to get red hot and carry a team on their backs for a quarter like Lin.

You're welcome Lin Lurkers LOL.


True. Lin has the intangibles and I would take Lin over Sessions any day of the week. But offensively I think Sessions can score/create offense as much as Lin did. I am really worried defensively about playing Sessions/Lamb/Belli together though.

E: I also remember winning a lot of money in Draftkings when I played whatever guards were going up against the Wizards. Maybe thats a reason too haha

It's the NBA man, you can't just take 10 minutes off to eat. You have to be committed for the full 48 minutes. 100% effort, you need to leave it all on the court if you want the team to win.

Interesting the number of screen variations we have been using outside of just the usual pick and roll and pick and pop.

I'm seeing drag screens, staggered screens, back screens etc.

I like it.

Man, I really didn't miss pie. I've basically got an audio feed due to the constant pop-ups.

We should trade Kemba, MKG, and Batum, for picks and hand the team over to Bellineli and Hawes.

No. 21 seems to be an easy mark for one-on-one, like a weak cornerback.

Kemba Walker and Cody Zeller to Brooklyn for Jeremy Lin and Bogdan Bodganovic

MKG to Milwaukee for Greg Monroe.

Batum to LA for Mozgov and Nick Young + a 1st round pick.

we look **** awful.

on a more annoying note, I hate Windows 10. My laptop just decided to install a new update and reboot at 9:23PM. I had no choice in the matter apparently. Can't turn off auto updates and it would not let me change the time of the install so close to the time it had decided to schedule on my behalf. What a pile of trash.
