    And why do you have to create a new thread to say what you think when there are many other threads regarding Lin. Tiresome

    I honestly believe in what Lin could be. The main thing he was missing last season was a consistent jump shot which I'm assuming he's been working hard on. He already has fantastic court vision and can take it to the basket. I'm not a LOF but I can see what he could be after this offseason.

    I recall him having a good jumpshot when he broke out with the whole Linsanity thing. And after melo came back, he had a jumpshot that was respectable. His surgery was a lot more serious then he played it out to be. Most likely to not drop his value after all that hype built him up.

    Have you seen Beverley's Euroleague Stats. Not auspicious. The Euroleague is equal or bellow the D league.

    Got it.

    If you want to use Euroleague as his measuring stick, consider what he did on Team USA U-19.

    So if we are racist for hating an Asian player, then you guys are even worst racists because you hate McGrady so much more, and he is black...
    works both ways don't it tough guy.

    Hey isn't Lin the same age as Curry and Beverley? It's too bad he didn't even make the USA team, he surely would've shown those D like leaguers what's up.

    ba-dum-psh!

    I can see Canaan edging in some play time as well. Just watched his draft vid, guy has some deep range with sick perimeter stats. If it translates to the NBA, he could be a game changer.

    His 2 pt jumpers were solid last season. It was his 3 pt jumpers that were the problem, especially the first half of the season.

    If you look at his shot chart, his middle and right court shooting in the ring was over 50%.

    What is up with your hate buddy. It's getting worse everyday. You do realize that most people do not talk smack about our players even when their favorites are being attacked...

    Though his 3 pt shooting the second half was stellar. Something like 40%, 42%, 37% month by month or something like that. I hope he can show that form come game time. It would hopefully calm some of the hate down, though unlikely, and we can just enjoy the show.
