    Just like many of the fans here, even his teammates don't know Lin's effectiveness yet AS HE HASN'T REALLY PROVEN IT TO THEM YET. I'd rather take KMart, CBang, he'll even PPat take an active role trying to prove that they can be the man than looking to Lin to create all the time. Over the season, the most effective players will get their share and I believe they'll look to Lin more as I believe he'll emerge as the most effective and dominant playmaker. Kmart is doing his thing and as the regular season rolls on, I have full faith that McHale will put the ball in the right hands at the right time. If this I'd not the right time to experiment I don't know when you would. I think we all saw that KMart seems to have found the right groove and that he's not the best playmaker. Once Lins shots start falling, and starts dishing and swishing better, it'll start running through Lin's hands more.
    The onus is on Lin to show that he can run the show, and when it starts going brought him more, he has to seize the opportunity and prove himself again. I have faith that water always finds its own level

    Greg Smith was impressive today. His post moves seem effective(although he is playing against some scrubs) and was doing a decent job on the defensive end. He certainly has earned the last roster spot with today's performance.

    Wish I could have watched the game tonight. Good thing Dragic and Scola are keeping me entertained. Miss those guys though...

    Jeff Van Gundy gave a S/O to the Rockets with a T Jones reference as well in the Mia/NO game. Talked about how impressed he was yada yada yada

    Lamb is probably the worst defender on the team as of now. He will have to learn on the fly and step up his effort which I believe he will under McHale. Since he has so much talent, I am having second thought about sending him to DL. He can improve by practicing with the team, learning his defensive rotation and how to stay in front.

    "America's Character Coach" apparently isn't "America's Defense Coach."

    My favorite play that Clutch hasn't put up yet. Steve Nash-ian. You may have to mute this one also.
