    I think the TO average of Curry is higher than Lin's. The GSW team has one of the highest TOs in the league but trying to clamp down on it.

    Just saying that only Lin is criticized harshly for turnovers but there are more turnover prone players than him. That's all. :)

    Be careful, you are walking a fine line here. More insights like this and you will be called a LOF.

    TOs per 100 possessions

    Curry: 10.4
    Harden : 12.0
    Lin: 13.1

    Are there more turnover prone players than Lin? Yes. Are Curry and Harden on that list? No

    Going off Hollingers numbers Lin is the 71st worst player in turnover rate out 356 qualified players.

    I thought I had seen it all but this is taking it to a new comedic level.

    Lets compare Jeremy Lin turnovers to NBA MVP candidates Steph Curry and James Harden.

    • Never mind the fact that they get those numbers while playing heavy minutes.
    • Never mind the fact that the OFFENSE goes through them.
    • Never mind the fact that they go up against the team's BEST defender every night.
    • Never mind the fact that other team's entire defense is drawn up to contain them.
    • Never mind the fact that they contribute in multitude other ways.
    • Never mind the fact that you are going against what everybody knows. Put the defensive pressure and Lin has the tendency to cough it up.

    Jeremy Lin fanatics sound really SALTY.

    Here. Have something sweet....

    Ppl still sleeping on Jeremy Lin's defense. It's like they've never seen him block a dude b4. He has 29 blks this season, 3rd amongst PGs.

    NBA Assist to turnover ratio for point guards, 40 qualifiers.

    Ronnie Price: 3.17 (5th)

    Patrick Beverley: 2.29 (32nd)

    Jeremy Lin: 2.11 (38th)

    Jeremy Lin during the post-game interview on what they need to work on to get over the hump?

    "TURNOVERS" - Jeremy Lin

    Once again, why are Jeremy Lin fans protecting Jeremy Lin from Jeremy Lin??

    If you're going with 2014*2015 ESPN stats, you are right Price and Bev has a higher AST/TO ratio.

    Price (5th)
    Beve (36th)
    Lin (44th)

    Whats your point? Lillard is 35th Parker is 40th, Irving is 43rd, Westbrook is 51th and the Beard is 64th....

    Hilarious.

    And Lockdown Bev has 177 assist playing around 30 mins while Lin has 299 playing around 25 minutes. So what's up?

    now break out the Kleenex CometLose!

    Damn Zboi riding your coat-tail of misinformation is just pathetic.

    now break out the Kleenex CometLose!

    I think the Buss family owe each and every person in this thread money. You guys are the only people keeping the Lakers viewership numbers afloat!

    If you'll excuse me I shall return to laughing at the idiot who suggested that Lin > Schroeder

    Notice how the "minutes" and "assists" were quietly swept under the rug when the argument was made against Curry and Harden.

    Deception. Thats another thing that Lin fanatics use against you.

    But this one below takes the cake....

    99% of his posts on this forum are about Jeremy Lin....on this thread alone!! Playing the white knight.

    And "Ynnis888" that he was talking to?

    Pretty much every single post of his is trying to defend Jeremy Lin's honor as well.

    His first page starts with over 10 posts of "Linnnnnnnn". I kid you not.

    And here is a gem...

    Complaint was about "Jeremy Lin is a joke" thread. There is a thread currently in GARM "Beverley is Garbage" in which several Rockets fans including myself have criticized Pat and continue to do so. Has this person complained about the "insulting thread title"?

    Why is he here? Again, White knighting a mediocre player. Every single post of these two make it clear what their sole purpose for posting on this forum is.

    The problem for them is that this is one of the best BBall forums on the net, if not the best, and folks here are knowledgeable. So their deception wont work here.

    And the Robert Sha tweeter that he quoted above.... comes from a certified Lin Fan lunatic. Again, exposed.

    Enjoy.

    Oddly, all those players except Parker are actually younger than Jeremy Lin and none of them have ever run fourth string on one of the worst teams in the league. Sobering thought I know.

    Yes Zboy, I am a Lin fan. I admitted that from the get go....very honest about it. :)

    Jeremy said that he's blessed with loyal fans and I agree.

    What are you guys talking about? Lin's performance shouldn't be measured in the regular season. It should only be measured by his Playoff Success. The dude was personally responsible for two playoff victories... for the Portland Trailblazers.
