Heat are like Super Hyper Turbo Street Fighter Basketball players out there. The speed and the power of Lebron and Wade are one thing but when Battier is blocking Amare and Anthony is blocking Chandler like that you know something is up. Jeeze..
what the hell happened to Baron Davis? The Knicks have him and Bibby, both were good... like 10 years ago
The Knicks are over valuing Lin and it's disgusting. They are willing to gut everybody for D. Howard except for Lin? If they wanna win now I suggest they trade Lin to the Suns and get Nash.... But that's just a suggestion.
How is it disgusting when the market is there for Lin??? How much revenue he has brought since he was introduced in the Starting Line-up??? Me personally, I'd be happy as hell to see him in the Suns...
Nash is better than Lin currently, and with Nash the Knicks would stand a much better chance of beating the Heat.....but Lin is more than just a good point guard. The reason the Knicks are overvaluing Lin is the same reason we overvalue injured Yao Ming - money. Millions of Chinese and Taiwanese fans pay money to buy merchandise, tickets, and more to watch Lin play; in addition, there are millions of fans inside the US who have started watching the Knicks because of Lin. And let me tell you - the Suns would do a Nash for Lin trade in an INSTANT. In a year or two, if Lin keeps improving at the rate he's showing, Lin will be better than a regressing Nash. The Knicks will lock Lin up and wait for that improvement.
I am much more impressed Irving than Rubio. He just has much more effect on the game while Rubio will take a backseat and defer to Love a lot down and become invisible.
Rubio's role is completely different from Irving, plus Rubio has hit the same amount of big, clutch shots as Love so you cant really said Rubio is defering to Love. Yes, I agree Irving is better than Rubio simply because he is better scorer even though Rubio is a better floor general but in today's league one needs to be a scorer to become a different maker.
