    I hate his fans...as for Lin himself, it’s much more annoyance than hate...he’s just lame and annoying

    ^ I second the post above. It's 90% because of his fans. He milked the 'virtuous underdog' story a bit too much though. It can be off-putting sometimes. But I'd like to see him success.... and for his ravenous racist fans to be banned from the internet. lol

    JLin's fans are/were annoying as hell.

    JLin himself I don't mind so much anymore. He had/has a holier than thou whiny attitude sometimes, but he's definitely not a bad person by any stretch.

    His driving seems alright, but not as quick as he was when he was here. His defense is so far below NBA level, I'm not sure how to describe it. Maybe I'd say something like: Remember that one video of James Harden's defense where they strung together like two years of bad defense? There were enough bad clips in this video to make the same such damning video:

    Lin fans are beyond pathetic. Imagine being so insecure with your life that you still are holding onto this rejected scrub simply because he is Asian, and going around different bball forums to defend him lol.

    As for Airemy himself, calling a scrub a scrub is not hate. It is calling him what he is. He bounced around until no one in the NBA even wanted to sign him.

    His game isnt good enough to be oohiing or ahhing over. Just a really dumb player. In addition to that, he brings emotional baggage with him wherever he goes while playing the victim card in his passive aggressive ways.

    At least Tebow moved on. Granted I wasn't on any message boards to experience his fans but I can't imagine them being even close to as insufferable as Lin's

    Can't deny his hustle, at least he's trying to make it back. Hopefully he gets signed to a 10 day contract or something. Sucks he was never able to hone his off the ball 3 point shot and play marginal defense.

    He doesn't stay in front of his man on D, lateral quickness seems to be lacking and doesn't anticipate well when his opponent is driving towards the hoop. Also isn't a great off ball defender and looks like the other PG outshines him too.

    Honestly he should have stayed in New York, when he came here initially it had so much promise but Harden outshines him so badly. At least he won a ring with Toronto though!

    I actually thought some nba team signed the guy or he did something newsworthy with all the traffic this thread is getting...

    But nope... Just mostly the same obsessive "ex-girlfriends" praising or hating things from years gone by...

    Sad.

    Tebow moved on because he didn't have the talent to play in the NFL.
