Exactly. I don't think anyone can argue that these are the top 2 PGs in the league right now. It's only when it gets to Lin that a bunch of LOHs start deriding the list's accuracy, when in reality it was on point from the start - people just don't want to admit it for whatever reason (my personal belief is that they are subconciously racist).
Then again, Irving's a first option scorer. The Rockets first option is Harden. Lin's playing more of a floor general role over main scorer, but we already saw what he's capable of as the main scorer (see: Linsanity period, Spurs game without Harden).
Irving is obviously leagues ahead of Lin, you must be a hardcore LOF if you believe otherwise. Jennings is arguable. I would take Lin over Jennings because Lin has much more potential as a penetrator, defender, hustler. I just see Jennings as a taller Aaron Brooks. List of (active and healthy, sorry Rose) PGs I would definitely take over Lin: 1. Chris Paul 2. Tony Parker 3. Kyrie Irving 4. Rajon Rondo 5. Russell Westbrook 6. Steve Nash 7. Stephen Curry 8. Damian Lillard 9. Deron Williams 10. Ty Lawson 11. Jrue Holiday PGs that are arguably as good / in the same league as Lin (in no order): Greivis Vasquez Mike Conley Goran Dragic Kyle Lowry Brandon Jennings Jeff Teague Kemba Walker
Quite opposite! "breakmon" is an all time LOH. :grin: He just like to pretend to be LOF to get people hate on Lin.
No, he does not have to be a LOF. He's anything but. As it been mentioned by several other people in this thread and others, Breakmon is not a LOF. He is a LOH pretending to be a LOF to troll the forum. Haven't you noticed his antics over the past week with necro'ing in GARM? Seems you got taken in and are doing exactly what he wants you to do, flaming LOF for no reason, lol. Trolls will troll, and then you have the guys like you being trolled and feeding them while they laugh with glee that you're doing their bidding, lol.
You know there are times where I see new accounts quickly agreeing to the post above it about some Lin related topic on both the LOH and LOF side. It just makes me wonder if someone wrote something, made a new account, and agree with whatever was just posted so it gives the perception of a majority. I'm just thinking people spend so much time and energy making others love/hate Jeremy Lin. I just don't get it man. Why is there so many people who fanatically love/hate this guy?
Well, my opinion is that Irving is better than Lin at the moment. However, I think that was only brought upon by the environment set up for Irving to shine. I see Lin surpassing Irving in a season or two though. I realized how ****ty this ranking system was when I saw the last 7 games list though. I mean Lin is #2 behind Chris Paul. I'm a Lin fan, but seriously?
http://games.espn.go.com/fba/playerrater?&slotCategoryId=0&splitTypeId=1 he's actually second to Chris Paul if you only look at his last 7 games (basically after the Knicks game).
LOL - I don't think this guy is an LOF or LOH... he's just a bored, miserable troll with not a whole lot to do for happiness but troll. Here's his post on the Knicks board with this same garbage, except he pretends to be a Knicks fan instead of a Rockets fan. Get laid, dude. http://forums.realgm.com/boards/viewtopic.php?f=24&t=1222880&sid=5ef45dea852afc57c20b800200aa3fc9
I wonder the same thing. It is like the entire Tebow thing. Neither are anywhere near good enough as players to warrant the attention they get.
Good find. It's hilarious. Obviously there're a lot of trolls on realgm so people there handle this kind of posts very well. No one tried to reason with him.
