As a long time fan who has watched both, Aomine would trash the dudes from Slam Dunk :lol:

In the NFL "questionable" means uncertain to play. It used to mean 50-50. Does anyone know if it's the same definition in the NBA?

.@JLin7 says his status is game-time decision. Spoke before shootaround. Must see how back responds as day goes on. Said it gets better.

I think he will play. A sore back can come from climate change. They went from Houston to NY to Orlando.

Master Lo sounds like a journeyman and not starter material because he keep traveling around the world like Jeremy Lin. He needs to prove himself by healing Lin's back with his secret massage techniques like today... Right now from Taiwan!

My back kind of hurt too few days ago due to weather changes, I think elder people and people who played sports with old injuries usually get some kind of chronic arthritis pain when snowing, raining, big temperature changes. But Jeremy still kind of young.

Does the plain ride affect the back ?

Damn Lin is fragile as hell when he's not in a contract year. WTF?

Rookie Isaiah Whitehead will get the start tonight in Orlando for the #Nets, though, even thought @JLin7 is available and expected to play.

Seems that Jeremy just lost starting job to iHead, lol. #kidding

Pistolpete1947 · Post #15 » by **Pistolpete1947** » Fri Dec 16, 2016 10:48 pm

I doubt he'll play much more than 20 minutes. Hopefully it'll be enough.

At this rate, I'm happy as long as he is playing tonight starting or off the bench. It's good news if Lin is on court.

It's probably also because of your posture. I've had back problem since I was 20, and it's because of my posture. My shoulders were uneven, they were always pulled up. Look up some stretches to even them out of you notice this. Probably not a hard fix.

I know what the Coach/Performance team believe but I'm not convinced their strategy is sound.

Simply using the Houston game as an example, Lin comes off the bench and promptly resumes filling the SAME deficit holes that he filled the previous quarter after the starting lineup stumbled -- what is the point of that.

Allow Lin to start so that he can try to lead the squad to leads that the bench can hopefully maintain seems the better way and you can still limit Lin to the same number of minutes as your original intention.

And yes, Lin can lead just as well against the opposing team's starters.

Seems to me like Kenny really wants Lin to finish quarters.

Well, one good thing is that there's continuity with the starting unit. Another is that he doesn't have to guard starting PGs would he comes in.
