    SMH... read your own post #262, YOU'RE the one who questioned his toughness, and I'm responding to your questioning his toughness.

    You're grasping at straws and beating around the bush and don't remember what you have said...

    He's indeed to prejudice against one player and willing to bend the truth about just anyone to make his case.

    Where did i question it? The bolded part?

    I knew it may be taken as me saying PB is mentally tougher than lin, but that's precisely why I specifically said it WAS NOT A KNOCK on Lin. My point was I saw how Bev handled a very unusual situation in the playoffs. I saw it, experienced it, it's in the books. I can't say the same for Lin, not because he's incapable of handing it, but simply because he hasn't been in such a situation in the playoffs. Perhaps Lin's playoff exit due to injury can be considered his negative experience, but we won't see the response to that until his next playoff series. If he takes it in stride and bounces back, then i'll talk about his mental toughness in the playoffs, but until then, I really can't.







    I'm out, but y'all remember, Lin said it himself, he learned in the playoffs that he has a lot more to learn. I guess the guy is just a liar and crazy, huh? Jeremy, you're such a LOH!

    You did say "DH may think Lin is not a championship starting pg" meaning he may not sign with us because of that, correct?

    Then he may sign with Dallas because they have Roddy and Collison (actually I don't know who is Roddy) and may be an unknown pg if they don't pan out?

    IMHO, I think Lin > Collison. I would just leave it at that and thanks for your response.

    This has been an epic back and forth between RV6 and myriad other posters, and by epic, I mean of such a huge proportion that I never read more than a handful of posts lol.

    Of the 5% that I have read, I'll say that RV6 sometimes made valid points. I even think his message, his core one, isn't that crazy, but RV6 man, you started grasping at straws in some of your responses and dug yourself deeper and deeper into the hole by sort of arguing tangents. Don't get sidetracked! lol

    I can also speculate by saying "DH may sign with us because he will benefit from Jeremy's exposure in Asia. Indeed, I think DH will make insist that Jeremy must remain a Rocket for as long as DH is a Rocket."

    I think my speculation is more "convincing" ;)

    NOT A KNOCK ON YOU, but you may or may not be an idiot.

    And who disagree that Jeremy has a lot more to learn? Or are you just trying to grasp at another invisible straw?

    Jesus Christ what happened to this thread? Wasn't it supposed to be about Lin's stroke from 3?

    Just when I think the Lin-thing can't sink any lower. Give it a rest guys, the season won't start for a few months, agree to disagree for now and then resume when we actually have new data to draw from.

    Sweet Pro-Am Vid though, thanks for posting.

    RV6: Dwight may not want Lin as his starting point because he's too unexperienced for a championship run

    Almost everyone else: Lin is ready now for a championship run


    inexperience = has more to learn




    EDITED for Average Joe


    Haha, yeah i know, but it happens when it's one vs many. Too much going on.

    Definately. If Lin traded away, he will be star again because he learned how to survive without ball.

    I am not "Everyone else". I argued with you for a day, trying to disprove your statement that Beverley has MORE experience than Lin.

    I get the feeling that the machine only counts to 999 and he shot over 1000 to raise that %. Hope its not true though. Plus the machine doesn't account for 'foot on the line 2s' :p

    Beating around the bush for sure. Why does this idiot feel the need to compare Lin to Curry in the first place?
