This is an embarrassment. And he does nothing to reverse this course. He is absolutely fine with this nonsense.


I'm convinced as a player he has no idea the amount of focus and dedication it takes to win at a high level. You can tell the nights when he is trying his damnedest to impact every aspect of the game, both ends of the court. I just haven't seen that from him for most of the season.

Most nights, it feels like I'm watching Deron...happy to get his stats & go home

Why? Because that's the way you play basketball correctly that's why. Watch other NBA teams they don't have 5 other guys bringing the ball up. Just a recipe for disaster which is what happened. I'm surprised at you that you don't know this especially because you've watched Skil constantly turn the ball over as pg this year. Where have you been?


you've never seen the bench scoring microwave 6th man bring the ball up court on a break?

really?

when they are onfire? really?

come on man.


Not Skil though - never.
He's good in the half court when he can catch and shoot or drive. That's all.


Except for all the times he scores in the open floor. like when he won us the game vs the clippers destroying them in that fashion.

Skil was our best player last night, you want the ball in his hands and being aggressive.

Maybe SKP didn't pass the ball to Lin because he watched this


Yeah and they should have not put him back in against the Grizzles after the 2nd Q. That's what you said remember? Basketball genius you are.


You are deflecting. thats a near identical situation to SK losing the ball last night.

Clutchfan is garbage. They didn't post the big play Lin made when Harden turned the ball over and Lin retrieved it from Mo Williams. Mo was getting his revenge. You have an agenda.


and yet Lin still had an untimely turnover..... just like kilpatrick. he played fantastic but had an unfortunate later turnover.

the whole point is that its unfair to get on SK for that.

Everyone has ups and downs. Lin has turned it over the same way in the same situations. so have the elite players like harden and lebron and curry.

I will not reply to you anymore. You do not know basketball and it is a waste of my time to discuss it with you.

What happened with SKP at the end was a basketball play akin to the "jump with no where to go and pass it to the opponent for a fastbreak dunk" play that Lin has mastered over the years (and made an appearance last night). SKP has been very good recently and great the last two games. Nets are blown out in both games without him. If you're getting on SKP for the TO then you should also get on Lin about nearly breaking the backboard with his cinder block. I mean he missed the rim by a foot. Those cameramen have families.

thats not discussion, thats nonsense.

Why don't you guys just put each other on ignore and not quote each other?

And for those who thought a mid-1st rounder wasn't good enough for Lopez. Think again.

Look at the precious mid-1st round prospects right now.

Prok, I never blamed SK for that TO. I said I've seen Lin do that to guys and guys do that to Lin. What I object to is posting crap from Clutchfans. Clutch at Clutchfans was a Lin basher, he'd go out of his way to do so while Lin was in Houston and he was the administrator to the biggest Rockets forum. That's my objection to posting this particular video. And I think this poster has a tendency to bash Lin, anyway.
