This offseason

[2k15]

Lin has been great in the past two playoffs lol, he did have a bad game or two injured his first year in Houston, but he wasn't as good a player in those days. He's been lights out recently

"Great"? no he wasnt great let alone lights out.... he had pretty mediocure raw stats on terrible shooting, poor efficiency and the team got outscored when he was on the court.


Lin Playoffs last year:
12.4 points
2.6 assists
2.3 rebounds
41.3% FG/21.4% 3PT/82.1%FT
14.5 PER
54.3 TS%
-1.5 BPM (NEGATIVE with him on the floor)

Lin Playoffs the year before:
11.3 points
4.3 assists
3.7 rebounds
41.0% FG/21.7% 3PT/81.3%FT
12.4 PER
50.0 TS%
-0.4 BPM (NEGATIVE with him on the floor)

So year... unlesss you conisider terrible shooting, poor efficienct, and being an overall negative in +/- "great/lights out" then he certainly wasnt great.

And for comparison... chris paul the loses who never won a ring:

Paul Playoffs last year:
27.0 points
10.4 assists
5.3 rebounds
53.1% FG/44.0% 3PT/91.7%FT
34.3 PER
63.3 TS%
+16.7 BPM

Paul Career Playoffs
21.4 points
9.5 assists
4.8 rebounds
48.7% FG/39.8% 3PT/84.8%FT
26.1 PER
58.8 TS%
+8.7 BPM

You should go back ignoring facts and just going on "lin is better cause of things you cant measure" or some nonsense. cause the facts show he isnt on the same planet as the top PGs in this league. Look im all for stats arent everything. and if you want to tell me that Lins intangables put him over the top on guys with slightly better numbers like say Jeff Teague... sure I can roll with that. But when you are talking about guys who put up All-NBA/HoF numbers who also win 50 games every year and who drastically outplay lin in the playoffs... well in that case you need to just STFU and stop trolling

i have no bones in this fight but since you like to call out bad facts, if the argument is that lin is a net negative in last year's playoffs, then with all due respect, you dont know what you're talking about.

I'm not saying Lin was a net negative. the facts are saying the hornets were a net negative with Lin on the floor. If you want to say the units he was on the floor with held him back, we could discuss that... but that would be missing the point. players who have a "great", "Lights out" playoffs typically dont have a negative BPM and are usually heavily positive despite the unit around them.

Then there is his shooting, which was really bad. and his efficiency which was really poor. Dont tell me someone had a "great" playoffs when they shot poorly, were inefficient, and the team got outscored with them on the floor. and it goes hand in hand... if you want to say he had some intangibles that balance of the bad shooting, well it didnt show up as they got outscored with him on the floor. I'm not going to sat he was terrible in the playoffs, but he certainly wasnt great, hard to say he was very good, and average or worse looks closer to the truth.

Look at pauls playoffs stats... those are great. those are lights out.

This isnt a narrative on Lin being a bad player, or to bash Lin. This is a retort to the claims that Lin is better then Chris Paul, has more impact then Chris Paul, and has been great the last 2 playoffs.

he was certainly impactful though. here are a couple of articles during the three game run. he didn't bring it in game 6.

If you discount all the games he played poorly, and only count the games he played well in, then sure he was good in the playoffs. But thats not how it works. Sure at times, he was good. certain games he was good. but overall he didnt have a good playoffs any of the 3 seasons his teams made it.... and he CERTAINLY did NOT have a "great" or "lights out" playoffs.

I'm sorry but thats not how it works... you cant shift goal posts like that. if someone says Lin is better then Chris Paul and has been great in the playoffs you cant just change the standard of greatness to having a few decent games.

Lin is not better then CP3 or even close. Like it really makes Lin fans look terrible for someone to say that.
Lin was not great in the playoffs either last year or as whole for his career.

Again if you want to say Lin is a legit starting PG or Lin wasnt bad in the playoffs, thats a different discussion.

Lin was huge in that playoffs. And hopefully, Lin will be huge in big games next season for the Nets, they win some of them, and that brings the Nets respectability. And, by chance the Nets get to the playoffs, I don't care how Lin plays compares to other PGs. If he's healthy, he'll give his all playing against the most stacked and talented position in the NBA, so he's probably going against guys that are higher ranked than he is. And we can only hope his shots are falling, his body is in decent shape, and that he help makes the Nets as competitive as possible. The Nets have a ways to go in the talent field, but I think Lin helps bring some hope to the team. But of course, Lin needs help himself: shooters, secondary ball handler, big men he can funnel quick PGs to that get past him, etc. And that's what this thread is supposed to be about. Not, who helps Lin specifically, but who helps the vets while the team incorporates the improved young players in Levert, Whitehead, DinWiddie, RHJ, etc.

i have no interest in having the lin versus chris paul discussion. i just think the argument that lin sucked during the hornets playoffs doesnt make any sense if you just look at the box scores.

Prok, did you see the series? Lin was one of the best players for Charlotte in that series. He was giving Miami fits and they were trying a bunch of different schemes to slow him down. Guys like Marvin Williams struggled, but Lin and Kemba were standouts. You're wrong about Lin not having a good series. In fact, on TNT and NBA TV, they were talking about Linsanity. It's just not fair to say LIn didn't have a good playoff series. He had one bad game, but that's it. One bad game.

I agree, Paul is way ahead of a bunch of other PGs as a player. And that includes Lin. But, let's not put down what Lin brings to a team. He makes a difference. He just needs to get more consistent. Because when he's on, he competes well against top PGs.

I'm glad you dont care. I do. and if someone is going to claim he is better then Chris Paul, then im going to respond as to why he isnt.

As far as the playoffs, as i said... if you count the games he played well and ignore the ones he didnt them yea, he had a good playoffs.

He had 1 great game, 1 good game, 3 mediocure games, 1 below average game, and 1 bad game.

That doesnt add up to a "great series'.... on no planet when you shoot poorly, with poor efficiency, and the team is outscored with you on the floor is that a great series. did i watch the series? yes. i thought gamed 4 and 5 he got it done. beyond that it was really forgettable. I also think the bar for greatness has been set so low for lin that its impossible to argue with his fans. like 8 points is great now.

meanwhile he is getting ranked above CP3 who is dropping 27/10/5 on 63 TS% and nearly 50/40/90 but somehow lin is better?

Lin fans need to snap back to reality. you cant rank Lin as a top 5 PG but then not hold him to the top 5 standard where you should be great all the time... not just here and there.... and the standard for great should be high impact with high production. not poor shooting and a negative BPM.

I was talking about last year's playoffs. Not the Rockets. Overall, Lin was a 6th man in the playoffs, so he should be compared to someone like Patty Mills. And I would put Patty Mills way on top of Lin. But, Lin needs more playoffs under his belt, IMO, to really figure out what type of playoff player he is.

And Prok, you've made your point about CP3. And it's only one poster arguing Lin vs. Paul and is he going to change his mind based on anything you say? If that's his ranking and perception, so be it.

And I would put Patty Mills way on top of Lin. But, Lin needs more playoffs under his belt, IMO, to really figure out what type of playoff player he is.

I was talking about last years playoffs as well.... he shot it poorly wasnt vert efficienct with a negative BPM in that series:

12.4 points
2.6 assists
2.3 rebounds
41.3% FG/21.4% 3PT/82.1%FT
14.5 PER
54.3 TS%
-1.5 BPM

And yea, you cant just lower the bar. thats not how it works. you cant say someone had a "great lights out series" and then try and lower the bar. And even if you DO want to lower the bar.... Patty Mills has been an elite shooter in the playoffs:

Patty Mills - career playoffs
60.8TS%
46.5 %FG/43.3% 3PT%/84.3%FT

If Lin shot like that, i would 100% say he had a lights out playoffs. but he was kind of the opposite. poor overall and terrible from three.

And Prok, you've made your point about CP3. And it's only one poster arguing Lin vs. Paul and is he going to change his mind based on anything you say? If that's his ranking and perception, so be it.

Its trolling not some outlier opinion. And its violating forum rules.

Oh there you go again, lumping all Lin fans together. It isn't just Lin fans that said Lin had a good series with Charlotte, it was a whole bunch of others and people in Miami that would tell you that. I don't know why you can't see that Lin had big impact on those games, they don't even win games 3-5 without Lin. And it's not all on the damned stat sheets. Lin made plays when they mattered, lifted the whole energy of the team with his penetration, got guys like Wade into foul trouble in two of the games, and made things happened. In the post-games Spoelstra kept getting questions of stopping Kemba and Lin, and Spoelstra kept saying what he'd try and that they both were hurting the Heat.

Really, you need to get away from the Lin fans over-generalization as it's not fair to all of them. I'm a basketball fan watching the game since the 1960s. I saw Walt Frazier and Willis Reed play, I'm not new to basketball. We all are different. Some are extreme, but it isn't delusional at all to say Lin had a good series, and I said good in my responses if you read what I said. Lin was an impact player in that series, and you're putting him down for no reason to go on and on about Paul. I'm not disagreeing with you about Paul, I've praised Paul. I'm disagreeing with you saying LIn didn't have a good series in the Charlotte/Heat series (not what he did as a Rocket).

Anyway, why are we still talking about this?

no no no... dont go shifting goal posts... the comment was Lin had a good series... the comment was, and i quote: Lin had a "Great, Lights out" series. He didnt have a great series. He had 2 really big games and like i said if you only count the good games and discount the rest of the series then yeah it looks really good. but thats just not how it works. i count all 7 games. and he didnt play great when you consider the entire series

Really, you need to get away from the Lin fans over-generalization as it's not fair to all of them. I'm a basketball fan watching the game since the 1960s.

Anyway, why are we still talking about this?

1) not my fault other idiots give lin fans a bad name. yell at kswiss not me

2) you are talking about something that was never a point of discussion. i never said lin didnt have an impact. i refuted that he had a "great, lights out series" and im sorry but 12/3/3 on poor shooting, subpar efficiency and being outscored when you are on the floor is not a great series... even for a 6th man. weve seen 6th men dominate before. look at harden on OKC for insance or Manu in his hey day.

Again, its the same pattern:

-Lin fan makes insane claim that Lin is some top 5 player with great impact like a CP3/Lebron/Harden
-non-Lin fan points out that he isnt elite/doesnt have great impact
-Lin fans all come in and take that as some giant insult and say lin does have positive impact

no one is saying lin is bad, didnt impact the series or anything like that. we are saying he isnt an elite top 5 play like chris paul and didnt have a great series last year or any playoff year.

[Prokorov]

Because its an offseason thread and despite the moderators consistently telling lin fans to keep the idiotic insane hero worship to the Lin threads here we are talking about how Jeremy Lin is better then CP3 and some playoff god.

it would be awesome if we didnt have to keep dealing with such delusional arguments where the facts 10000000000% show its not even close.

The mod warning was to one fan. And he didn't keep it going, other posts mentioning what he wrote did. Then he responded to some of them. So, can we move on please?

[NyCeEvO]

Where Lin ranks amongst the NBA PGs has nothing to do with this offseason. This is the last time I'm going to say anything before action is taken.

Do not further quote or respond to anyone regarding this issue!

Also, do not bait posters into discussions that further derail the topic. That only makes things worse.

We realize that you are all Lin fans first. The moment any of you begin to twist stats to make him look like a god to argue with a regular, it brings the board down as a whole, which leads to my next point.

I like how you think you're some superior "true" Nets fan, when you're on other teams game threads bashing the Nets lol. Just quit trolling and let's get back on topic

The only troll is you. you can take cheap shots all you want but at the end of the day the only troll job here is you painting lin as some top 5 PG when he is average and middle of the pack at best.

eitherway keep your delusional Lin heroworship were it belongs in the Lin thread with the rest of the lin fans. let us nets fans discuss the offseason without your troll job
