    Nice white flag (not that I expected anything else). I've watched Lawson play since he was at UNC and am an avid sports better. I watch way more basketball then you. You joined the board to blow Jeremy Lin. You're a fluffer

    No. Lawson is a worse defender and only a slightly better shooter than Lin.

    Lawson is a better scorer but we're one of the best offenses in the league as is. Our problem is that we stink on defense, and Lawson only makes us worst in that regard.

    Lin has greater upside and is a better defender.

    Lin fans - where Irving and Lawson are considered scrubs & terrible basketball players.

    lulz

    Keep fighting the good fight Orange & King1. Actually, I take that back. Don't waste your time.

    We win more when Lin scores more, so yes we could use more offense.

    Why is this even a question though? The answer is obvious but still....why ask it in the first place?

    I guess people still can't accept that their starting point guard is Asian.

    My ****ing god, I don't understand what it is about Lin that riles all you idiots up. EVERYONE. STFU.

    What? Lawson is pretty much an all star. Lin is the epitome of average in this league. I like Lin, but you have to recognize talent.

    He's trash according to this thread. Just listen to the LOFs. Kyrie Irving is a good athlete but not a good basketball player. Jeremy Lin, however, has "upside". This is so comical.

    I'll take Lin over lawson. Switch the two players on the team, you won't see lawson having an impact like he is in Denver. It's all about the situation you are in. In Denver lin would probably average 18 and 8. Probably more.

    Lin over Lawson. Just like him better and I think he has higher potential, not necessarily because he is lots better than Ty.

    The Nuggets GM would think Morey is talking about Lin's attorney before believing Morey said Lawson for Lin. After clearing things up he would pause, cover the phone, laugh, tell Morey to go back to MIT and build a robot then hang up.

    I'm pretty sure Lawson's happy with Denver's SYSTEM and COACH KARL. Why would he come here to play in our system, next to ball dominant SG/PG, with our coach?

    He's also more expensive.

    If McHale will actually play him in the 4th quarter then yes. Anything better than Beverly as our PG in crunch time
