yes. Summit sold out all the time. Also the Yao era had consecutive sell outs for a while..even the Francis-Mobley transition phase had good crowds
If you watch a replay, they actually ran into each other...even the Jazz commentators went silent when discussing the replay. 'You can see where he gets fouled right....oh...(crickets)...well...that's 2 shots for the Jazz! Harden gets bumped, grabbed, slapped and pushed on the last two drives with no call...'that's some tough Jazz defence.' SMH
That's a good take man, everyone needs improvement on this team and i think Lin is already better than he was in the beginning of the season. Just takes time, plus lets admire what Parsons, Patterson and Asik have been doing, really impressive.
That's my observation too on Lin's transition game. He was already good last season in transition, but much better this season.
I'm guessing a few too seasons of bad to mediocre basketball with no end in sight hurt. I'm sure the lockout and now TV semi-blackout aren't helping either. Hopefully more wins will help increase interest. That and the end of the NFL season. :grin:
I reckon Lin only needs to average around 10-11 points a game with a better shooting percentage will be fine because he have enough scorers. He runs the game very well in all other facets. He just needs to be a threat from the permiriter to not become a liability on offense.
It is true, they took our Australian NBL off the Television and even out of the news reports, put a small section in the papers for it, then wondered why attendance started to drop and interest was going south. Heck we have a season going on in Australia, and I would say only the die hard fans know that it exists. Out of sight, out of mind.
The mediocre seasons were and are the worst thing that can happen to a NBA franchise. Just look at Indiana...once they were the frenzied NBA crowd like the Thunder and a franchise crazy about it's team. The mediocrity killed all of that. Same with the Kings too. Wins will always fill seats.
Gotta love how Lin zips the ball up court to our guys who run the court. That's how to reward your teammates.
I really hate how the reporters are so close to the basket. Players are going to get hurt trying not to run into them.
