    Not sure if serious. Its the hops man. Rose and WB can fly around and do tomahawks and windmills what have you, while Lin can only do exactly one kind of dunk- right-handed to the right side of the rim.

    Yeah. He has 4/14 shooting and 4 turnovers... But he is ok.

    You got to give credit when credit is due. Dmo has 9 points on 3/5 shooting and hit a critical 3. I would not call that awful.

    Oh yes it does, when your hands are too small to a certain extent you don't have the control to really dunk. It's a known part of basketball.

    Waited 5 games to get this chance to trash Lin? 7 assists and solid defense means nothing to you

    I would hate to play against Beverley, but would LOVE to play with him.

    Lin's vert isn't up there with those 3 imo. He can jump high enough to dunk, but not in traffic or over people.

    He is not the same Harden as in previous 3 games. He is back to that "do it my own way" Harden....

    Look, I know Jones was going up against Kevin Love, but it doesn't mean that he can't grab a single rebound throughout the entire game.

    So you rather have Lin dunking then being top tier in FG% at the rim...

    I think there's a video of Lin routinely touching 2-3 inches above the square with both hands in a random practice video. He's got the speed and hops just not with a 29.5 circumference ball :grin:

    When we make our free throws, we overcome those stagnant spells, and we're pretty hard to beat.

    He's missing layups left and right for a couple games now. I think it that FG% has plummeted significantly these past several games.

    he can barely dunk. the problem is he has no hops. he cant pick up the ball take a step and elevate like harden, parsons, etc. he has to use his speed and lay it up right under the basket.
