    Lin's jumper, defense, ball handing, and all around game might be sub par, but at least he's thrown some flashy passes!

    So, I guess the 8 million a year is worth it, right?

    We're not a good team, have plent of room to grow and have mountains of cap room. The amount of Lin's 3 year deal isn't a concern IMO.

    Yup.

    And his no look passes are legit. He fools everyone. Like I mean his no look passes fools like 3 defenders all at once.

    People are still buying into the myth that Lin is a below average defender and a turnover-prone, crappy ballhandler?

    Sad.

    it's not a concern if you don't want to contend in the next two years.

    These days? I think the smart money is on trolling.

    My CF post advanced stats as of Saturday:

    12% Sarcasm
    82% Trolling

    This couldn't go in the other 9 million Lin threads? The mods need to start doing some locking and merging.

    Defense is good, turnovers down, shot's improving. And Zach Lowe is awesome. Btw, this isn't the first time he's mentioned Lin's passing, which is good.
