    Byron Scott actually said in the post game he thought Lin played well LMAO!!! I'm a Lin ran and thought it was funny. Lakers are in trouble, starting with a coach that doesn't know what he's doing and still thinks he's in the old NBA by not allowing threes

    I thought Lin through his turnovers gave us somewhere between 6-8 points.

    He's probably looking at the Kobe:Lin shot ratio. Which is at a healthy 17-to-5. That's the type of teamwork Scott wants from his starting point guard. At this rate, Lin may be better off the bench. Ronnie price got 7 shots when Kobe's not around.

    Congrats to the Lin fans for finally escaping the clutches of Mchale and Harden. I'm sure they will enjoy the greener pastures of Byron Scott and Kobe!

    Linsanity happened only because of two things: 1. Mike D'Antony 2. Melo's injury. Jeremy still has not shown he can be productive playing within a more standard system and next to an NBA star. For some reason he needs massive usage rate to get his stuff into some rhythm..

    To all those crazies (and you know who you are and who you aren't) who insisted Jeremy Lin's only problem was Kevin McHale... or James Harden... or Daryl Morey... or Houston media... or ClutchFans...

    This game was your wake-up call.

    Lin played horrible no doubt. But it's the first game on a new team with a first unit he hasn't really practiced with. Let's wait a couple games before judging him. I thought you of all people would be above that.

    Clutch,

    thanks again for the hard work. Kanye West should have ran on the court and told Jeremy Lin that Yao Ming was the greatest

    Scott must of meant Lin did well at helping the Lakers lose so they can tank the season and get to keep their top 5 draft pick from Phoenix.

    Last time he was on a new team with a first unit he hasn't really practiced with. 12 points (5/12 shooting), 4 rebounds, 8 assists, 4 steals, 4 TOs, 35 minutes.

    His coach was Kevin McHale. His backcourt running mate was James Harden. Just sayin

    Sorry but what has Yao got to do with guard Jeremy Lin? to the other poster.

    I guess that he is mediocre, turnover prone guard but I surely did not come across annoying Lin fans as you have.

    Thanks for the video though

    the problem is not Lin, it's his ballhoggin teammates.

    I propose that they make a brand new team with just one player, Jeremy Lin and no coach because coaches are always against him.

    my response was for Clutch, it wasn't meant for you, you're not as smart and witty as Clutch to get it.

    So go on and tell us again why you think the Spurs are finished and overrated every year
