JUST LIN BABY!

[shiite]

Drops 38 on the Lakers. One week ago, he was playing in the Developmental League.
Harvard grad. He's been living the past week with his brother, an NYU student. Sleeps on the couch.
Knicks fan seen holding sign calling him "The Yellow Mamba." Linsanity is sweeping the nation.

yes, those assists (7, 8, 10, and 7 in his last four games) obscure
his inability to pass. Furthermore, those 4 straight wins are
meaningless. He should be benched immediately!

wow...the knicks are in even more trouble than I thought if they are
giving a guy decent minutes who has only played 4 games in his whole
life!

nothing against the guy, but he's not any good and it is questionable
as to whether he should even be on an nba roster or whatever d-league
team he came from

Uh, yeah, the Knicks *were* in trouble with starters out of the lineup. It's why he got a shot.

Please share with the class what standards Lin will have to measure up to before earning the Mia Roster Suitability Award.

Disculpa Senora michael anderson, pero did you really mime the following
on 2/11/2012 3:18 AM???

Dood. Stick with offering up odds on SEC games. What you don't know
about basketball can fill an entire library.

Dude, yer an idiot. I can't believe you actually know less about
basketball than you do about football.

I dont have easy unfettered access to drugs. Nurses are the ones with
keys to the controlled substances bin(called the pixus I think). If
for whatever reason a physician was seen rummaging through it, it
would be seen as highly unusual and raise suspicion instantly.

But back to lin- we'll just see and time will tell......like with
romney:)

in a few months the season will be over. So you think Lin will still
be putting up these numbers thruogh the playoffs?

[michael anderson]

6 weeks from now I feel very confident in saying Lin will not be doing
much of any good for the knicks

[J.C. Watts Enslin]

I agree that defenses will figure out how to play him...but "doesn't

know how to pass the ball or create for teammates."

Dumbass comment.

6 weeks is not the few months that you stated in the other post

Ay, he's barely had any assists in the past couple of games that he's
started. He really needs to start putting up assists worthy of an
average NBA point guard to start getting credibility.

You're probably going to fall on your face on this one.
You seldom go against the grain, but there are reasons why Lin might
succeed.

A few:

He has excelled at every level so far
* H /S
"In his senior year in 2005-2006, Lin captained Palo Alto High School to a
32-1 record and upset nationally ranked Mater Dei, 51-47, for the California
Interscholastic Federation (CIF) Division II state title.[3][4] According to
Dana O'Neil of ESPN, "... Lin was the runaway choice for player of the year
by virtually every California publication"

*College
By his junior year during the 2008-09 season, he was the only NCAA Division
I men's basketball player who ranked in the top ten in his conference for
scoring (17.8), rebounding (5.5), assists (4.3), steals (2.4), blocked shots
(0.6), field goal percentage (0.502), free throw percentage (0.744), and 3
point shot percentage (0.40"

Hall of Fame Connecticut coach Jim Calhoun said of Lin: "I've seen a lot of
teams come through here, and he could play for any of them. He's got great,
great composure on the court. He knows how to play."[5]

Being Chinese and a devout Christian, overcoming bigotry will be his biggest
challenge in continuing as an NBA player.
