The fact is both Dragic and Lowry failed miserably to lead the rockets into playoffs but fans loved them to death.
Cut this out. You are the only player that sees this nobody else does. Stick to basketball stop bringing in race & stereotypes.
The problem with this comparison is that Kobe transformed himself and came back that summer and the rest is history. Perhaps it's time for Jeremy to stop with his whole month of extra marketing activities in Asia and go back to training and playing some summer ball to be more prepared for the season like he did during the lockout.
Yeah, having your 2009er sense of superiority to judge other fans. Get off your high horse. Just because you are here longer doesn't mean you know better. Do you know how many new fans coming here? Do you read all of their comments to make a conclusion that all Lin fans are nothing but fanatic? I have seen plenty of Lin fans make fair judgement on Lin, criticize his game a lot. If you have never read them all, then you are not in the position to call all Lin fans 'stans'. Oh, if you don't even see some strong hate toward Lin on this board, let alone in this thread, you need to reexamine your eyesight.
<br> Lowry is the focal point of the Toronto offense while Derozen and Bargnani take more shots. Makes a lot of sense Dragic is the focal point of the Suns' offense while Scola and Beasley avg more shot. Makes a lot of sense Sadly efficiency exists and Lowry and Dragic do well in the mold of very good point guard play. Also, sadly logic exists as well.
Not comparing the two. But what I'm saying that character and the absence of hesitation are never bad things to have. To be a hero you have to take the hero shots.
Lowry and Dragic EARNED their love by the fans, Rockets fans to be specific. When Lin earns praise, he'll get it.
Or maybe he can continue going to church at the age of 23, hanging out with male only friends, having no way to release his tension or stress. He never even had a drink before. If you think that's normal behavior for a kid at his age in this country you must live in Utah!
the coaching staffs are telling Lin to always look to pass it to Harden then create distance so that he can take his man 1 on 1. they ran multiple plays just to get him the ball, then they set multiple screens so that he can get a head start to the rim. it's that obvious and it's a joke. multiple fails during clutch moments in consecutive games. this whole coaching staff needs to take a hike.
who said they were better than someone because they were here longer? most 2012 posters were not here to see the trevor ariza bashing.
This only means offer up Lin + others to the Lakers for Pau Gasol. Rockets get their offensive big man (whose contract expires in 2 years) and Lin goes back to playing from the bench and learning from Steve Nash and playing under Mike D'antoni. Win Win for both teams.
<br> When players play poorly on a consistent basis they get bashed. Dragic/Lowry/Brooks experienced less of this because they generally played consistently well. Rafer Alston played like **** most of the time so he was deservedly bashed appropriately. Bob Sura was a beast so hardly any bashing occured. Mike James was solid in his stint so he avoided the bashing as well. But Moochie Norris? Matt Maloney? Hell, even Francis. Yup.
Neither Derozen nor bargnani play PG for Toronto, neither scola nor Beasley is the main ball handler for the suns. None of them had the ball in their hands 80% of the time while taking more shots. What's your point and what's your logic?
