    I would advise you to do the same, but with the entire Asian race hahaha.

    On topic, dude lit it up tonight. 25/7/5/2 on 10/19 shooting in 35 minutes. Led New York in scoring, assists, steals, and minutes played, plus they actually won a game. Bravo Lin, probably should have kept him.

    The kid was playing unbelievable. They couldn't stay in front of him, and then he was splitting double teams and finishing with contract when he was beyond winded. On top of that he actually played good defense on Williams for the most part.

    It just felt as if Williams wanted to be anywhere else but playing for the Nets. He didn't really call for the ball and wasn't trying to set anyone up, though the few times he tried to set up his teammates they lost the ball.


    The rest of the team was basically just following what Lin was doing, and playing off them because it seemed none of them could create their own shot.

    Having said all that, he only hit 1 jump shot from 15 ft. Against a team playing better defense, not sure he could penetrated as well as he was, though the Knicks could not buy a shot.

    Ironically, Lin might be the reason that we, the team that waived him, loses a high lottery pick.

    Well he is the only healthy pass first PG on that team. He is also easily the best PnR PG on that team as well even considering a healthy Davis. He will have to work on his conditioning though, and he will definitely have to start hitting some jump shots to keep teams honest.

    They were chanting his name to come off the bench through out the game? Knicks fans were desperate.

    Weren't you saying that Flynn is a better player than Lin?

    One guy won the game for his team, the other kept the bench warm for his team.

    I don't hate Asians just hate the fact that you guys like him because his Asians. Racial biased!!!

    And another thing are you going to bump this thread every time Lin has a descent game? Wouldn't it be better if you go create a another forum and call it "Asian basketball players"
