    What's his PER among Shooting Guards, cause that's essentially the position he's playing?

    Nevermind, looked it up...it would around 25th in the league for a SG, right around Iguodala and Afflalo...so I guess JLin as a SG is doing about as good as those guys.

    I maintain my earlier accessment that a lot of Lin's problems have to do with the fact that he can't shoot. Become a better shooter and he will be a much more effective player.

    Linsanity ended when Melo returned from injury. Linsanity happens when Lin is the #1 option.

    I'm not sure who would take him at this point. One thing is obvious....he's not the best fit with Harden, and I don't think he's a starting PG on a championship team.

    The best fit I see for him is the Kings....not so much because of his style of play, but because he could bring some fanfare to a fresh start for the organization in Seattle (large Asian population, etc.)

    Could be sarcasm but if people are really using this excuse to back up Lin... wow.

    Its the NBA. Have you ever heard of guys "taking it easy" on someone in the NBA? Does Doc Rivers ever tell Tony Allen back in 2008, "hey... you know what...Kobe bought me a coke the other day so ... you know... take it easy on him tonight."

    If guys aren't going hard, harder, hardest at you every night then your not in the NBA. If you can't handle the best of the best defenders giving you everything you can handle night after night then you dont belong, and you certainly dont belong in the conversation of being an All-Star.

    Lin has lost all confidence in his jumpshot. he's not a good fit with Harden and I can't see him being our starter in 3 years.

    i really hope we trade him. i just dont see it happening because his value is complete **** right now. Looks like we're stuck with him for a while -__-

    until someone gets desperate enough to take him.

    He has good moments. Needs to improve his left hand and 3-ball, and he'll have more good moments. Bev will provide some needed rest for him. Hope McHale uses TD to rest Harden a bit more, too.
