    Another thread from Roxlove (aka HateJLin7), another one on Lin. Now reaching so low to choose a stupid article even for the low standards of B/R.

    Next you know, he'll post a gig file depicting everybody that posted here as toddlers with snot coming out of their nose.

    (expect to see more of this exceptionally non-clutch, game-losing shooting if Lin stays on board for next season. :( )

    Another garbage thread from a serial Lin troll. Go start a thread on a sport you actually know something about like women's figure skating.

    From his posting history, garbage poster.

    I've never seen posters on a Lin thread so united. It takes complete stupidity to bring it out. Thank you (to Roxlove aka HateJLin7 that is).

    Waiting for iJHolmes to come defend HateJLin7 ...

    I don't think you are as famous as you think you are.

    Referring to yourself in third person though sure makes you seem like a douche though. :(

    Mike De Moor is a good kid but a kid he is. He is a young kid living in New Jersey that aspires to be a writer. He has no formal education or long-time experience in the game of basketball. He's just a kid. I'm not even for sure he's in college yet. May just be a high school kid. You can look him up on facebook and twitter.

    While there is nothing wrong with being a kid, he has no unique insight or valuable statistical analysis nor basketball experience to bring anything enlightening to the table. He's just writing his opinion about Jeremy Lin based on his extremely limited knowledge base about basketball and what his young untrained eyes see coming through his TV screen.

    Jeremy Lin is one of the fastest end-to-end players in this league. He's a worst in the 90th percentile in the NBA in foot speed. Also Morey is on record saying that Lin has the quickest change of direction they have ever measured of anyone.

    Lin was injured throughout the playoffs. We all know that. He wasn't himself. And the 12/13 version of Jeremy Lin was a watered down version to begin with because he was coming off knee injury.

    The unknown questions about Jeremy Lin are these:
    1. Can he develop into a high-30's to low 40's percent spot-up 3-point shooter?
    2. Can he stay healthy?
    3. What is his trade value?


    In my opinion the answers at present are:
    1. Yes
    2. Not so sure
    3. Somewhat below average. Won't be able to get real value trading him by himself.
