Why would I be unhappy? I was just answering that guy's question. And please, no one wants Lin to fail, the animosity is towards LOFs, not Lin himself.
I see. My bad:grin: Can't tell who is who here. But I really appreciate those vets who's skeptical, ignore LOFs and making valuable assessment on Lin. Just early on, so many people saying Lin is a joke, a scrub, so many bad things spoke towards a young lad with an positive attitude. I understand it's hard to accept a rookie than 2 fringe all-star PGs. But it's not the reason to be that harsh about him cause he's not the reason the two elite were gone.
You nailed it. I came over because of Lin as well. I realize that I am now a true Rockets fan when Rockets beat my Lakers and I was jumping up and down, even though Lin didn't have a good game in that game. cool:
Exactly. It's tiring how some people insist on attributing his popularity merely to his race. Of course it's a factor, but it's not the main one. To me, it's also the underdog story that really drew me in.
When Jeremy lin does the driving layup with an and 1. I suspect the collective screaming of "yeah" all over the globe must be louder than for any other player.
Don't forget the Ivy Leaguers, most of them would not have followed the Houston Rockets but for Jeremy Lin.
