    Lin will get paid more than patrick beverly, but beverly would never get the ball stolen from him in the last minute of a playoff game cause beverly will call time out.

    Hates Houston? Oh fake Rockets fan, did even care to see who the #24 guy on this list is?

    Patrick Beverley of Rockets!

    Once again, BUSTED!

    Also, LOL @ celebrating Lin getting ranked higher than Isiah Canaan and Dante Exum.

    Yeah, Go Lin!!!!!!! You go boy!!!!

    *laugh*

    My god...how far the expectations have fallen ...even by his own fanatics. Absolutely pathetic but perfectly understandable given the quality (if you could even say that) of his fanbase.

    Oh btw, Patrick Beverley still kicking Jeremy Lin's ass.

    Beverly is obviously a superior player than Lin. There's no question about it. I think Bev is atleast top 15 PG. Lin is 3rd stringer at best. Possible 4th stringer after Steve Nash, Ronnie Price, and Jordan Clarkson. Which is why ranking Lin top 30 is LOF behavior. Reading comprehension is not your expertise is it? LOL

    Well, if the inclusion of Lin is bothering you that much, you can take comfort reminding yourself that had Steve Nash not been injured and had Jordan Clarkson started getting his minutes from the getgo, instead of just last two months, Lin would be missing.

    PS. Disagree about Beverley in the top 15. He is not good enough to crack the top 20. He is a specialist.

    Well to be fair, had Steve Nash not been injured, Clarkson wouldn't have gotten the chance he's getting now. Clarkson would be sharing dual 3rd stringer PG duties riding the pine with scrub Lin. No Asian starting backcourt in the NBA. None of this ridiculousness in my lifetime.. Smh....

    <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/SRBU74b6ZAE" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

    And with Nash helping Kobe carry the load, Kobe wouldn't have gotten injured, and the Lakers would be sitting pretty with the 8th Playoff Spot. Lakers wouldn't be tanking and Philly would get Lakers' 1st rd pick. Which means Daryl Morey would probably pull off a great trade for the Rockets with Philly and a 3rd team.

    Funny for LOFs suddenly hating on ESPN for not including Lin as one of the top 30 PGs in NBA.

    Ironically they forgot before the season started, ESPN rated Lin as the top 100 players in the NBA (no. 100 being exactly) and ranked before Bev (around 103-15 I believe) and LOF was like tears in joy to celebrate.

    Then take your shirt off

    then remove your pants to get a smack on your butt cheek and then turn the other cheek for another slap

    then turn around for a slap on your left ball and then present your right ball for another slap

    Jeremy Lin Set to Join The Dallas Mavericks Next Season

    Mavs’ owner Mark Cuban is apparently intrigued at the possibility of bringing Lin to Big D. Mavs’ announcer Mark Followill, a trusted source in the Dallas Mavericks community, broke the surprising news this morning.

    “Was just about to brush my teeth before Mark Cuban called me he is bringing Jeremy Lin to Metroplex next season. Unprecedented and unconfirmed reports this is!” #Linsanity – @MFollowill

    3/10 shooting for Jerry fr a grand total of 7 points while Jordan Clarkson continues to light it up with 18/10/7

    Meanwhile Harden goes for 50+

    But but according to Lin fans, Harden is a manufactured superstar and Lin is better if not for raci or marginalization

    Harden should have been 6th man and Lin the starter

    That's an April Fool's joke. From the same article...

    Then you look at the tags under the article, one of them is under April Fools.
