The haters are just plain mean spirited and look to inflame and make comments insinuating that they are above the Lin fans. The fans are just that, fans... delusional or otherwise.
Meh. If you think Lin sucks, you are crazy. If you think Lin is averaging 22/8 on 45/40 shooting you are crazy. They both deserve to hear how delusional they are. Both sides are annoying and are asking for responses calling them out.

Nope, unable to after tweaking his other ankle. <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p>As expected, Jeremy Lin will NOT play tonight.</p>— Serena Winters (@SerenaWinters) <a href="https://twitter.com/SerenaWinters/status/523983902248284160">October 19, 2014</a></blockquote> <script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
I don't understand the obsession with Serena Winters. There are plenty of hotter basketball media members.
I wonder if a part of Lin being patient with this ankle is caused by how bad the team has looked with Ronnie Price. Not like there is any competition at PG now that Nash's health looks very iffy.
Lin is clearly not willing to play through injury. Can't say I blame him in preseason but he has a history of laying down when hurt so one would think he'd be looking to make a good first impression. Pretty sad showing on his end so far.
Holy cow, this Lakers team is beyond bad. Jeremy is proving his value while not playing. Byron Scott looks so bad in the pre-season. Let us see when he gets fired.
