    How would you rank Lin if he can shoot 3s like Novak?

    If Lin could shoot 3s like Novak his name would be Stephan Curry.

    People get so uptight when they said people are "training with ____" with D12 training with dream doesn't mean he'll be a drastically better player. Hakeem has had Workshops in the summer in the previous years were kobe, and D12 have been seen previously going there.

    not taking anything away from D12 or Lin, just saying don't get your hopes up just because someone is training with someone. As someone who played basketball most of their life, having someone try to teach you a new way to shoot is extremely difficult when all you've known is the way you've done it your whole life.

    do you really have to change your form to become a better shooter? So many players in the past have had ugly form, barely get lift and still were money from 3 point range.
    Usually for some odd reason, point guards, and I'm not talking about these shooting guards that cross dress as pgs because they were too short, take a couple of seasons to get their 3 point % up.



    weird shooting forms that would always go in,
    mario elie, chandler and clyde. kmart also.

    All the guys you mentioned probably has no chance to get an endorsement from Chinese Manufactures. But Harden, DH12 or Kobe, even JR Smith can probably get endorsement in China easily, they do not need to hang out with Lin to get invited to China ( Most of these trips are paid by endorsement, I guess)

    That part he's already mastered. Injured both his seasons and missing playoff games.

    Novak is a PROVEN 3 point specialist, X rocket from the Yao Tmac days. Stop behaving and acting like a complete noob please.

    So what? I know of his Rocket days. Still doesn't make him a master. If anything, he is exactly the same player as Lin. Good for scoring and not much else.

    This particular game winning shot was a key part of a significant achievement in Rockets history. He can be called Master in my book.

    not sure how everyone jumped to the conclusion that a tweet from Novak stating a "meet up with my good friend JLin" = training him on shooting 3's. lets not get all our panties in a twist.
