Does the injury excuse apply for Marcus Morris too? These excuses seem to only apply to Jeremy Lin here
Lin's upper strength was significant weaker than last season...He dropped too much lbs and fat maybe.
You want to see his NYC Swag back? When Houston finally appreciates his game and loves him as the great player person he is. Where is the love for JLin in Houston? Where are his true fans in H-Town? The reception for JLin by Houston has been colder than freezing and more skeptical/cynical than SAS since the day of his signing, now made more evident than ever compared to Harden's. You want to see more proof? Just look at some other threads in here, like the tracking. JLin plays for God, which means He plays out of his sheer love of basketball and for his team and for the audience that loves him back, but he is not a chauvinist nor is he a self centered and self serving prima Donna. He has fought skeptics his entire life. He and Harden were both Mr. Basketball of California in 2006 along with 5 other players now all in the NBA. His success last season with the Knicks was not a fluke. It was the story of a person relegated to being a understudy and when given the chance of a lifetime, made it his own. That's why we in New York/New Jersey love him and appreciate him. Moreover, we identify with him, with his resiliency and humbleness and greatness. Houston is so lucky to have him yet you do not know him nor appreciate him. What a shame.
Well, Lin is driving up page views and ad money. Kind of like Notre Dame. People up the ratings by cheering or jeering, but the networks don't care.

Clutch, you can close or delete this thread. Just really wanted to know what happened with Lin's variety of ways on how he attacked the basket (pull-up J's out of p&r's,floaters,teardrops,spin moves,etc) rather than jumping into a defender and end up putting up high degree of difficulty layups.
I agree where is all the ways he was scoring last year? Perhaps he's attacking the basket because he's having a lot of trouble finishing so he's concentrating on this area. He used to finish so well. Also he's not getting any calls.
I'm giving him until the All-Star game. If he doesn't show up by then and the doctors say he's good, Linsanity was a fluke.
Some usernames with Related to Lin are not helping Lin cause here. Lin is a good player but cmon, some of blatant Lin fans make even Lin fans like me get very annoyed. I dunno if u guys are trolling or being trilled Lin is good and did some good stuff and ppl recognize that. But he has other stuff to work on too. He is a student of the game which is nice though
ugg he's still good player and played fine yesterday. We're just wondering why he's not using different ways to score.
