    No. When they traded him it was like a loveable teddy bear. When the Lakers trade people it is always OK. Lamar Odom loved being traded by the Lakers. Those are organizations that know you have to treat players right.

    I never thought i'd say this but on this forum it seems LIN is Underrated. Yes he has some flaws but give me a break....that was pretty much his rookie season. The guy is very athletic, has size, and can shoot from the outside. His upside is just as high as Goran. Sure i do not want to pay him 10 million, but i would not hesitate giving him around 7 million per season. This guy 2 years from now could be an all star. Look at his advanced stats while he was starting.

    Yeah, because the team that traded him for Aaron Brooks and a first round pick treated him like family, right? :rolleyes:

    I don't see that at all. His court vision is incredible.

    isnt he a restricted FA so that means morey may pull another "asik-like" deal to scare away the knicks from matching? I'd take lin if he werent offered the same money as dragic but we'll see...just sounds like a marketing ploy from les to just put more money in his pockets

    I see the rockets wanting to deal Lowry/Scola for Gasol, and we will need a PG. Hence Lin.

    Year of Dragon, or Linsanity? In 25 gms starting, Lin ave 18.2 pts, 7.7 apg, shot 44.5 %. In 28 gms, Dragic, ave 18 pts, 8.4 apg, shot 49%.

    Dragic is the better player, but Lin has more star power from his time in NY, maybe Dwight would want to play with him?

    I can easily name 20 point guards who are better than him...Probably even 30.
