    You're drowning in the misconception of "Christians follow the Bible therefore must always 24/7 follow it" nope, we're human too and we look to Jesus every time we fail.

    Crazy if you actually believe that a team's system/style doesn't have a major impact on a player's maximum effectiveness, given a player's particular strengths and limitations.

    Do you think Yao Ming would have been effective in a run-and-gun D'Antoni Phoenix Suns offense?

    Lin obviously isn't a franchise player and shouldn't have a team built around him, yet he should still play in a system that his skillset is most effective in. That's the best case scenario for both the team and the player. Lin is certainly a serviceable player in the right situation. IMO its a combo-guard 6th man role with a certain amount freedom on offense, and with a big that he can run pick and rolls with. Not, dribble the ball up, drop it off to Harden/Kobe, then walking over to the corner and and waiting for the pass.

    yea system arguments are always silly. Melo's a star, but only in the iso system. You saw what happened when D'Antoni showed up, tried to make him pass more and the let PG actually be a PG (lin, baron davis for a bit, bibby) and Melo had a lot of trouble fitting in and the Knicks sucked.

    All I know is Lin doesn't equate to win. Empty stats

    In fact the only games the Lakers won in this stretch was when Lin went 3/12 and 4/10. All his other good games have results in losses

    Lakers have one of the worst frontcourts in the league with bad shooters. Not even Jesus playing point guard can make this team win.

    Can't blame this game on Lin, he had a very strong performance...23 points 8 assists in 30 minutes off the bench.

    Keep drinking your haterade man, it's entertaining.

    In your eyes, Jeremy is either a scrub/waterboy/or padding empty stats.

    dude i dont understand the insane lin fanatics but at the same time i dont understand the INSANE lin haters. The lakers suck period.. they dont win often but they have been competitive and lin has been the number resaon for that.

    Also I see you conviniently left out the game before his 3/12 performance where he shot 10/15 and led the team with 25 pts and 6 assists and won.
