Thought he was way overrated when he played in Europe. He was getting schooled by European PG's on daily basis. Shocked me in NBA, elite passing ability, elite floor general and very good defender. There is not so much open court in Europe.
Yes, 35 is way too small of a sample size. Let's just use one game then. That's much more accurate. Kobe Bryant vs Atlanta: 34 mins. 5-18FG, 5 TOs, 10 pts. vs Joe Johnson... what a scrub! Do you want your max guy getting owned by Joe Johnson? Lakers should trade him. Dwight Howard vs Milwaukee: 42 mins. 5-15FG, 3TOs and 11 points, vs Drew Gooden... Vs Drew Gooden??? Forget about trading him for 20 picks/prospects, ORL should just cut him.
Dont assume the bashing is because we don't like what he's saying. The bashing is coming at him because he is like a bad bbs poster only he is audible. Questioning Lin's desire to play playoffs at 85% healthy? First, how did he get that percentage? Second, it was a knee injury. You don't rush those things. And third, it was a contract year for Lin. So, he wanted Lin to play weeks after a serious knee injury that was not fully recovered right before he had to find his next NBA contract? That's Stephen A. overlooking circumstances for 'desire.' Only played half a season? Well, he was only given his chance when injuries at his position happened to first, second and third string PGs. The other missed games were due to his knee injury. I'm sure Lin would have played if given the PT right away. If it's the small sample size he's worried about, Lin played well when given time. The guy is essentially a rookie, and he did what he did. I'd say that's a good start. The fact that his argument is, "oh he played well, but it wasn't for a long time," shows the nitpicking he had to do to even make a case against Lin. Lin played well in the time he played. Lin has a big head? What indication has Lin given for Stephen A. to come to this conclusion? I have seen none. Just because NY and its
I saw that, too. SAS is a turd so just keep moving along. He tried to say the Knicks are pissed at Lin for turning his back on them after they gave him his chance in the NBA. Spin, spin sugar.
Sorry. I hit submit on accident. Lin owes the Knicks?! It should be the other way around. Before Lin, NY was on its way to missing the playoffs in that star studded lineup. Injuries to point guards, and Carmelo taking time off "to rest" led to Lin getting PT. Lin single handedly made NYK relevant last season. Carmelo took time off to rest! And Stephen A. questioned Lin's desire?! If it wasn't for Lin, NYK dont make the playoffs. Also, search for the MSG chart before and after Lin. It's ridiculous.

I don't get it. The Knicks have made some of the worst signings and trades in the past recent years. The one guy, that has made this team the most relevant in the past decade, and they don't want to pay him his money? Doesn't make any sense. Knicks fans actually had something to cheer for. And they're going to let this guy walk.....IDIOTS
If you agree with him, then you'd have to acknowledge that he isn't some scrub you suggest him to be.

I decided to subject myself to an endurance test. I was able to make it 25 seconds into this video before shoving screwdrivers into each of my ears. Anybody able to top that?
