Jeremy Lin to be bought out by Hawks, sign with Toronto

Rockets fans are supporting the Toronto fans who have an infestation of fake fans join their site.

 

0 fer on 3s since joining... ouch...

 

I think they probably banned the LOF to be exact.
Oh, so how is the Toronto site?
by the way, this a Rockets forum where Rockets fans talk about other NBA topics.

I guess some people forgot why this site was created.

I'm still able to post on the Laker and Charlotte boards, but no one talking about Lin there so I don't go there anymore.

Toronto site...I've been to a couple, and it appears that a lot of Toronto fans are also Lin fans, so they are pretty happy he's there. That said, the Raptor forums I've been to aren't all that active in general (I guess there aren't that many Toronto fans out there). Funny thing, tho...I did post to one of them, and a guy responded to me there how much he enjoys reading my posts here on this board. That was nice.

I'm most active on NetsDaily these days, as my Nets are looking good for the playoffs. I've been to a few games at Barclay Center, too...

 

Do you. Ignore the haters.

 

I don't think at 0-16, 0% from the 3 point line is good.

Thank you Jenny scrub for the win tonight

 

I hope Lin retires as a Rocket

 

Airemy living up to his name.

This scrub was a disaster tonight. Thanks for the win lulz...

Years down the road and still turning it over, jumping in the air in the lane and then trying to pass the ball while throwing it away, bricking shots..

....just a really low IQ player. Always has been.

 

Gotta admit, Lin has been sucking pretty bad since he signed with the Raptors. And when he sucks he sucks hard. Some players when they have bad games they go like 3/10 or something. Lin goes for 0/7 and 1/5 lol

Raptors fans were happy because they thought they were getting the clutch 3pointer Lin from 10 years ago lol

 

does he bust out some bible verse yet ?

usually thats his go to move to gain some sympathy after sucking

 

God is on the side of the pure Rockets fans who join a Rockets board to amongst their peers

The Devil is with fake fans who come here to troll Rockets fans because they are insecure about their idol

 

No question Lin is struggling to find his offense since joining the Raptors. It's strange since his offense was very efficient earlier this season when he was with the Hawks. Maybe the effects of his knee surgery catching up with him? Not sure, but I hope he's able to get back on track with his game. He's got a very good opportunity here with the Raptors and it would be a shame if he couldn't take advantage of it...

 

There's no magic or supreme being that helps you make jump shots.

It's called technique, practice and execution.

The basket is the same in every nba arena.

 

Gotta say...am really impressed with Kyle Lowry’s leadership. Lin has been struggling to find his shot, but you can see when Lin and Lowry on the floor together that Lowry has no hesitation in getting the ball to Lin when he’s open. Showing great trust in Lin (and all his teammates, really) and helping him try to get his shooting going. And Lowry’s actions clearly influence the whole team.

This is a great situation for Lin. Hope he does well and the team goes far in the playoffs. Would love to see Lin sign a long term contract here, even if it’s as a backup.

 

It's a great situation for Lin...not so much the Raps since he is sucking lol. 36% FG and 13% from 3 ouch. Lin is tanking his stock with Raps he looks like a scrub whi can only perform when there is no pressure (Nets, Hawks) and sucks on good teams that want to win something (Rox, Raps).

 

Well, Raptors are 6-3 since Lin joined the team, and Raptors announcers,writers and fans appear to be pleasantly surprised with the quality of Lin’s defense and general BBIQ...yes, his shot is not falling, but most are confident that it will come back. No question that Lin needs to find his shot, but to use a 9 game sample to draw the conclusion you did seems pretty short-sighted.

 

Raptors being 6-3 have more to do with the Raptors being a great team with or without Lin. In fact I just looked at his advanced stats and its all negative, negative DPM, negative OPM, negative win shares and negative VORP.

I dunno what the fans are expecting but by all metrics Lin's Raptor stint has been a failure so far. Defense has been bad as per stats and he has 1.7 tos to 2.2 assist, I dont see that defense and bball IQ you are saying in fact its more of the same Lin I have seen in Houston.

Of course 9 games are too small a sample size, but Lin is a vet he should have adjusted already after 9 games. He is playing worse than Shumpert did and Shump is injured.

 

He sure looked like Jeremy Lin when the Rockets destroyed Toronto on national TV.

 

No question Lin has not been playing well, but my point (as you acknowledged) is that 9 games are too small a sample size compared to the remainder of his 9 year career. I don't know what you were expecting, but certainly I think most people expected there to be some time needed to get integrated into the team, learn the system, learn his teammates, etc. I completely expect Lin's FG% and 3ptFG% to rise back up to his career averages as well as his assist numbers to move towards his career averages as he gets to know his team and teammates better.

I like Shumpert. And I'm not saying this as an excuse for Lin (I certainly hoped that Lin would integrate faster than he has)...but Shumpert has played for D'Antoni before and has much better familiarity with D'Antoni's system than Lin has with Toronto's system at this point.
