    Jordan Hill is not bad offensively. He needs to defend and rebound better though.

    Is Lin literally the 2nd best player on the Lakers? How ironic.

    His handles are too shaky way too often for an NBA player...

    Lin should thank Morey for trading him to LA. This could be what he needs to get his career on track. That being said, he was still terrible for the Rockets.

    Also, as an aside, what about the performance of Jordan "THE MAN" Hill? If he can hit that elbow jumper with consistency, he's going to be a really nice player.

    Linconsistency strikes again. One day, he looks like Tony Parker, and the next game he looks like Smush Parker.

    But its okay because he's a young fella who is still learning the game. We just gotta give him another year!

    And next year we'll be saying the same thing.
    Some players are just flat out inconsistent.

    He had around 5 TOs in 4th quarter alone today. Really bad TOs too (like WTF ones). Was standing around, did not do much on offense (0-6 for the game) and was getting abused on the other end the entire game.

    So what happened today?

    Kobe didnt talk to him?

    He forgot the offense he had to run?

    Someone stole the fire hydrant?

    Look, there are no external Xs and Ys when it comes to Lin. No one is holding him back. There is no black magic.

    Lin is an incredibly inconsistent player.

    That is what defines Lin.

    Only watching the 4th quarter, and man does he look terrible out there. 4 turnovers in the quarter alone.

    Thought he was start doing well since the last game but I guess he's back to being inconsistent.

    At what point is Kobe going to realize Lin is not special and he's just going to end up taking all the shots for his team? 50 shots a game for Kobe?

    Oh boy. I hope Howard was behind which tanking organization got Lin. This is the ultimate screw you to Kobe. His rhetoric could be taken as encouraging Lin or calling him out for being a pushover. Kobe will never like his teammates but will probably loathe Lin exceptionally for his below average performances.

    I feel bad for Lin. He just seems out of his league at times.
