    If Lin was getting calls after being clobbered in the lane, his scoring would've been in line with both Dragic and Lowry.

    I saw enough yesterday to believe he's in the top half of PGs in the league. Plus, it appears he fits well with Harden.

    some tragic stupidity in here. lin played great last night but the beard was on fire. this is there first basketball game together. our backcourt is as good as there is, period. this is a team game. we're missing some pieces but watch out.

    Lin's shooting was better than dragic's and Lin left at least 6 points...his shoe just on the line twice, a bogus charging call, should have been a blocking foul and at the line for 2 and a lay up where he was hacked, in any other uniform those are 2 freebies.

    Lin's line should have been 18/8/4steals/ 3 t.os(the non charge reverses a turnover)

    Lmao at questioning daryl's evaluation talent. It's not a coincidence the trinity fit DM's mould of Pgs that play with high I.Q, can run an offense and are relentless at going to the basket. I want all those 3 to succeed.

    i doubt he really evaluated lin, just really wanted the money. wasnt he the one that gave the team to lin, and now traded for harden?

    Lowry >= Lin/Dragic

    but

    Lin + Harden > Lowry/Dragic + Harden

    imo

    Dwight Howard 0-2

    Spencer Hawes 1-0
    Omer Asik 1-0
    Deandre Jordan 1-0

    Can't believe people are actually using team record as evidence that one player is better than the other. And this is not me saying that Lowry/Dragic are better than Lin, this is just pointing out how stupid it is to try to use that stat.

    It's a team game. That's like saying:

    "Yes, thanks to Harden NOT Delfino."

    Harden says what's up.

    What happened to your pathetic graphs? They were always amusing.

    We HAD to trade Lowry to get Harden, so what Lowry does is totally irrelevent.

    The only reasonable discussion is Lin vs Dragic.

    PGs affect the outcome of games much more because they are responsible for running the team.
