    I haven't caught the 2 preseason games. I know Mchale has been saying Lin is not 100% healthy with the knee but from watching the games what do you guys see?

    You think he's still Linjured?

    My take is he's not 100% but I'll hold my thoughts until last preseason game.

    I think he is attempting to be funny.

    Doesn't look injured.

    I believe he joined Sparta Science a year ago, or just did something different with them, and he said he got really good results, which made him a better athlete.

    My guess is he lost some of that improvement, which surely helped him become Linsane. So, he's probably somewhere between pre and post Sparta and still working his way back.

    I think he's holding back in the pre-season.

    Him using bro science and losing unnecessary weight might be an indication.

    I'll take that as a, "i dont know when he used it, but i just felt like saying that, so i'm changing the subject."

    Maybe he got a big contract of three good weeks. If this were Durant or Lebron struggling in the preseason I wouldn't care, but Lin really hasn't proven himself.

    Why do you feel he is struggling?

    Lin is at his best when he drives hard to basket looking for contact. No one should want him to play that style all the time during meaningless games. The fact that he has gotten to the paint pretty much whenever he wants should be the only thing that fans take from preseason.

    Also, I think its a safe bet that Lin's going to be in the race for league lead in steals.
