    Most likely. His game decision is terrible. Passed up an open corner 3, drove in and picked up a charge call, then forced a semi contested elbow 3.

    His defense is nothing to brag about. Worked hard all summer and had a decent camp, but hope he will sign with Vipers. Wish him well...

    alright, maybe i came off as simply labeling him a "chucker". my bad. there are plenty of chuckers in the league and Martin is definitely not one of those. he's quite efficient actually. i've watched him in Sac plenty.

    Bullard makes that joke about 4 times a season, he's doing it on purpose. Not sure it's sig worthy.

    Oh great now you've let the cat out of the bag, he probably wont want to drive to games anymore either.

    Just give him the sleeping powder knock out juice like they did to Mr T in the A-Team.

    Lin had like the 2nd best FG% in insolations last year. He also has better vision and more likely to pass the ball than Martin. But he's a bad spot up shooter. On the other hand, Martin is probably one of the worst isolation players in the league. He thrives on spot up shooting and catch and shot. He's automatic when left open.

    But for some reasons, McHale would rather run his 1-on-1 isos for Martin and have Lin spot up. Couldn't understand his line of thinking.

    I've heard of Hypnosis medical and cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT).

    Martin should be the finisher, not the initiator. You don't use one of the most efficent shooters to create plays. He does not have playmaking skills despite his occasional assists.

    I think JLin was having a bad preseason and didn't show much in practice. JLin said he couldn't even get in the paint at the beginning of pre-season. JLin is just now rounding in to shape.

    YES. Lin cracks double digits in points. HALLELUJAH.

    It's a 15 hour drive. You want R.White to take a shift or take a break @ Holiday Inn express.

    You know how they have the concept of "slump busters" in baseball? I wonder if teammates helped Lin to one of them.
