    Has Lin looked this bad in the prior pre-season games?

    We need to penetrate more. Too much passing along the perimeter. Grizzlies defending really well.

    ...I'm sorry, this social media stuff is getting out of hand. Why is there a dude reading Twitter and getting paid for it?

    Right now hardly anyone is making a shot. Lots of air balls, missed layups, FT's, etc all around. At least people are getting the ball in good shooting spots for the most part.

    That said, at least the defense is better than last game. Lin and Asik playing good man to man... Parsons looking like he's missing some defensive rotations and help defense.

    I notice they're running the kind of play for Lin as if Carmelo Anthony is on the court. Need to see more pick n roll for Lin...he thrive off of that.

    Asik's gotta be frustrated, putting in all that effort only to see the Grizzlies get the oreb and the points.

    Omer is getting overwhelmed on the interior.

    It looks like Lin is unsure what his roll is on offense. The guy needs to be the focal point and have Martin/Parsons play off him, not vice versa. If this is what our offense is gonna be, we are WAY WAY more screwed than we can possibly imagine.

    He missed both free throws and the mid-range. *Ouch* Everyone is playing better defense though.

    Missing two free throws can't be injury related

    No point guards, no backup center, tons of rookies... Roks or Lolcats?
