    I think Lin was good defensively. WB only scored 14 points, below his season average and with low fg%. Plus he had 5 turnovers.

    So what made you so excited about Tmac that you thought playing in CBA would reignite his career? Like I said, the only thing Tmac can do now is "score".

    Interestingly you would welcome back a broken-down Tmac who turned his back on Rockets but you refuse to acknowledge a hardworking Lin who is STILL playing for the Rockets.

    Dei, you and jose got issues against Lin that's not basketball related.

    You want to talk about sanity? from the day lin followers have arrived, the garbage spewed by them is epic. Anyone who dares to even pointout the basic weaknesses about lin is called racist, troll and everyother name under the sun. We had Tmac and yao fans here for the most part getting along pretty well. LOF's are the worst crop of ignorant, sensitive flock of fans on the face of the planet.

    In other news, I saw a Laker fan on Twitter propose this trade:

    Gasol for Asik, Lin, and Delfino.

    LOL

    As Dei would say, "Is your English really this bad or you're just from somewhere else?" :grin:

    So he's mentally weak? Great!

    Maybe he should go down to the D-Leauge to relax and calm his nerves or maybe he can ask for a reduction in pay if he's cracking under the pressure of a $25 million contract?

    What's the next excuse...Lin still recovering from knee surgery? Racism? Anxiety?

    Obviously, these LOF were not around when Rafer Alston was getting destroyed on this bbs. At least Rafer didn't cost the Rockets $25 million.

    it's not your money moron...

    Jlin play D against westbrook, did you watch the game, typical emotional fan and hater, envy of Jlin $25 mil.

    did you know they didn't have a rest and enough sleep.

    since your a hater and critical of lin... gasol for Jlin + 2pat would you agree with the deal.

    As much as I dislike Gasol, I will gladly take that deal as long as you throw yourself in that package going to the Lakers.

    8.3 million/year is not really that bad for Lin. You're acting as if he's making $25m/year. His assist numbers have been great the last few games. His scoring has shown signs of picking up the last few games and will improve significantly over the duration of his contract. Might even turn out to be a bargain eventually.

    Hilarious, but I definitely agree, lol.

    It's bad, even by your own admission. No, I'm not acting like he's making $25 mill a year. If this is all we're going to get from Lin, a guy like Jarret Jack can give you comparable production for about $3 million less. Dragic and Lowry make less too, but you give you much better production. Don't act like the Rockets didn't overpay for flash in the pan Linasnity.

    to keep Rockets in Houston a movement emerge.... I think all of you Jlin haters should create a movement to force Les a trade this is the most best scenario to make Jlin out of rockets.

    GASOL for JLIN + 2PAT(you don't like 2pat so I pick him).


    no I am not a laker fan but since some people here are moron and stop this nonsense conversation this is the solution I could think. Also I've been hearing this trade conversation for sometimes so let it happen. its a win win for both.

    Jarrett Jack has never ever strung together games like Lin has. Lin's peak is higher.

    Sample size is small this season so far.

    Lin is about the age Lowry was when he got him. Lowry wasn't nearly as good as he is now back then. Point guards need time to adapt to a new system.

    Lin is smart, so he will get there.

    He just needs to work on his shot and on limiting his turnovers.

    I don't think they overpaid at all. Dragic has already been paid and is making almost what Lin is. Lowry will get a big payday when his contract when this contract ends. Anyways, Dragic today was 3-7 shooting with 1 assist against the Pistons, one of the worst teams in the league. Lowry was 3-10 with 4 assists against the Grizzlies. I don't really think there is that much of a difference between the three players right now, and Lin is two years younger and will improve as well.

    You are just being too dramatic.

    Lay off the crack pipe. Neither the Rockets nor the Lakers would consider this deal. Lakers already have Nash. They won't sign a $8m backup for him. Give it a break with your masturbation fantasies. I can guarantee you if Lin goes to the Lakers he will be a bench player and you'll probably see him working in a Chinese noodle shop in a few years.

    Lin basketball IQ is average. A lot of people are smart, that doesn't make them good at basketball.

    hey relax, it just a suggestion to stop this conversation how sure are you he will be a bench player. I think Jlin wouldn't mind to be a back up of nash or they can be play both of them at the same time kobe at 3 spot.

    Go look at Jack's numbers last year...across the board they were similar to Lin's production. Sample size was small for last season too, but that didn't stop you from extrapolating when commenting on Jack and Lin in your first sentence. Most of the rest of your post is wishful thinking.

    You're wrong, most likely because you're a LOF. Lowry and Dragic are having much better overall years than Lin, because they're better players than him.
