    Scottie Pippen was a Rockets player.

    You realize Lin Fans insulted Clutchfans and Clutch right? all the time.

    You must have missed how they proclaimed that everyone on Clutchfans is racist and how Yao doesn't count .

    These walkers must be stopped.

    And that's why I spend my waking moments obsessed over him, watching his every game, doing a possession by possession recap of his and Jeremy Lamb's play, and wake up in the morning and jump over to this thread to breakdown and cry.

    Tinman decides to come out of hiding after his sidekick ZBoy decides to turn up.

    High five!

    Clutch has put it behind him evidently.

    You, well you just needed another crutch after nobody posts about TMac anymore.

    Since the Lin nuthuggers like to make videos, any of you make one of Lin getting harassed by Devin Harris at the start of 4th quarter yesterday? I have a STRONG suspicion that part will be cut off from his 1 minute highlight reel from last night.

    I strongly suggest you guys take a look at it.

    It will not only explain why Jeremy Lin struggles with on the ball pressure but also that he still does not have the fundamentals down.

    When Devin starts harassing him, Lin still faces Devin during that confrontation, while exposing the ball and trying to go past him.

    He was lucky the ref eventually blew the whistle because a turnover was coming. Well, eventually Lin did turn it over, after the whistle.

    Friendly Tip: Jeremy, next time turn your back towards the defender and stick your butt in the defender so they cant reach over and then use your butt to push Devin to the spot where you want to go. Slowly move North-West---North-East instead of trying to force the issue North while exposing the ball.

    Cmon bro!!!! You learn this in high school!!!

    Fundamentals!!! LOL!

    Anyways, Happy New and Improved Jeremy Lin everyone!!

    Tmac fan comes to help the Lin fan?

    You are as blind as they are.

    Didn't you say the same crap to colt45nyc ?? you realize that Lin cockroach got stomped off clutchfans??

    you are so salty, you can't see that Lin was a lousy player for the Rockets and that his fans are blind rats?

    I'll give a FACT.

    Tracy McGrady only played 20 playoff games for the Rockets .

    They never won a playoff series with him in the lineup.

    And that will never change and that's on him.

    Clutch had to ban your twin colt45nyc

    Lin Only Fans don't belong on Clutchfans or the Lakers boards or Hornets boards

    The owner of the Hornets board came here and asked how bad the Lin fans are.

    You are a part of the biggest group of zombies than the thriller video

    What makes him unique is that he's a bad player with millions of fans who don't care that he's bad.

    It's like when william hung was on American idol, it was entertaining until he serious thought he was good

    i don't know why people keep bringing up tracy mcgrady in a jeremy lin thread.

    why are talking about an all-time great in a thread about an average nba player?

    Jeremy Lin is not an all-time great.

    However, he is still playing so....

    Yes, yes I am.

    Technically, it is possible.

    Unlike you, Yung-T took my truths about McGrady too hard, now he's jilted.

    Obviously if It wasn't true, he wouldn't care.

    Maybe he's more similar to a Lin fan.

    basketball reference has a comparison of players for 5 years

    http://www.basketball-reference.com/players/l/linje01.html

    imilarity Scores Explanation ▪ Players with careers of similar quality and shape (thru 2014-15)
    Thru 5 Years Win Shares (Best to Worst)
    Player Sim 1 2 3 4 5
    Jeremy Lin 5.4 4.4 2.7 2.7 0.5
    Sherman Douglas 95.0 5.4 4.4 2.7 2.6 1.0
    Walt Hazzard 92.7 5.3 4.5 2.5 2.2 0.2
    Tyreke Evans 91.7 5.4 4.4 3.1 2.7 1.6

    Jim Seminoff 87.3 5.4 4.5 3.6 3.4


    Jeremy Lin is up there with Sherman Douglas and Walt Hazzard


    None of these guys have fans from Hong Kong willing to pretend to be Rockets fans so that they can tell Rockets fans that he is a much better player than portrayed in real life and that he's some asian jackie robinson.

    None of these guys have fans who jump from fanbase to fanbase to preach their demented message.

    LOL @ Sherman Douglas.

    Now that is a blast from the past.

    Growing up, I had a soft spot for Sherman and other Celtics scrubs since I am from Boston. Tommy Heinsohn, the ultimate homer, used to call him "General". *laugh*

    My god...those Celtics teams sucked so bad.

    Actually, in the modern NBA, you basically never ever want to put your back to to defender as a perimeter ballhandler. That is a very 80s thing to do. Some players can get away with it, but it is certainly not what you are "supposed" to do.
