Jeremy Lin makes a GREAT 6th man, now we need to trade Asik.

Isn't there alrdy a thread about Lin being 6th man? IBTL

 

Lin is a great sixth man! Therefore, trade our backup C!

 

We know. What do you want me to do about it?

 

Asik makes a Great backup C. hope he takes Lin's lead and agree to being a sub. than pining for a starter slot.

 

If only Harden could pass him the ball at the closing seconds of the game.

 

The two most clear facts after the games so far.

 

Good Creative Thread. I dont think these ideas have been mentioned before...

Waiittt...

 

We call him the 6th man but i honestly think Mchale just sees him as a normal reserve. Normally a 6th man is always better than the starter in his position and even though he doesn't start, he usually plays more minutes than the starter and also closes out the game. See Ginobli, Crawford, JR smith. etc. We will see how Mchale handles his minutes because right now we can only assume from a handful of games.

 

we just put the stuff into the pot, let it cook for awhile...

 

lin should ask for a trade with this kind of performance...

 

the 3rd part of a Big 3 babyy

 

I'm pretty sure that's where they give players contracts, so they can't ask for a trade after a good game.

 

Why they give...

 

Tonight we went away from the twin towers in the second half, first half of the year, and, with Jeremy Lin having the half of his life, we lost the half 40-54 to a Raptor team having its worst shooting night of the year. We gave up second chance points over and over, because we didn't have Asik. We didn't really have anybody playing badly, we just got soundly outplayed because we didn't have Asik. It may be that we can compete without Asik, but this game suggests we can't. You say that Howard plays better without Asik in the game. Look at the difference between Howard in the first half and Howard in the second half! Asik is not the problem. Jones played his best ball, Lin played his best ball, Parsons and Harden had fine games, Howard was a beast. And we still got rolled in the dirt, at home, by the Raptors, the entire second half, because we didn't use Asik.

 

Trade Lin now that his value is high!

Lin for Ginobili

 

Any player that asks for a trade after one breakthrough performance is a player who would not get a trade.

Lin had a great game tonight and played on his "Linsanity" level, but come back down to earth here, thats only one game. No other team is going to base one game or even a few games to determine your value.

 

lin got to be traded

 

congrats on predicting lin would be a good 6th man with the addition of harden...you are now similar to roughly 75% of CF

 

His greatness as a sixth man shouldn't be defined or confirmed over one break out game.
