    LOL this was a hilarious post. I sincerely mean that. But yeah this is the second time Lin has shook up Damian. I remember a previous game Lin had Damian going the other way on one of his no look passes. Was low key hilarious.

    Lin shows no mercy, whether to rooks or vets. He's just schooling Lillard a bit on how to get it done in the post. You could almost see Lillard take out a pen and paper while he was in the air.

    That would be amazing. The fake and then just rising up from there for the dunk? Not sure he can do it though.

    That's Lin's second Linshake of the year. First one was on Nate Robinson on Christmas.

    Lilard has more upside than Lin for sure, but Lin is getting better and better as well. Hope Lin keeps up with Lilard and have more great face offs in the future.

    I'm not sure... Lillard is only 1 year and a few months younger that lin as he is turning 23 in a couple of months... it all boils down to work ethic... that is something very hard to guage...

    He'd be dunking from a full stop about 5 feet from the basket. I don't think even Westbrook could do that.

    Yea - I was thinking if any guard could do it. It'd be Westbrook or Rose, but I don't even think if they could do it.

    Terrence Ross could maybe do it. But he is a SG/SF not a PG.

    They're comparable. Lilard doesn't have more upside.

    Not to mention Lillard has piss poor defense and average court vision which doesn't really improve, you have it or you don't.

    It's going to be easier for Lin to improve his jumpshot than it is going to be for Lillard to improve his D.

    Lillard has a smooth jumper and great handles but Lin is stronger, bigger, faster. It'll be interesting to gauge both their developments as they were both 4 year college ballers, similar age, similar talent level, similar experience.
