if you think Lin's defense is terrible, you haven't seen Lawson. He doesn't have quick hands on defense and is not great at staying in front of his man for such a quick guy. Plus, PGs feel very comfortable shooting jump shots over him because he doesn't pose any realistic chance of blocking their jumpers. It was pretty hilarious and ironic when he called out Harden's defense on twitter actually.
LOL what kind of "clear 2nd option" is 5th on a team in shots? As big a chucker Dragic plays with he still manages to lead the team in FGA/GAme.
Funny how the Lin haters have less stats to back up their claims than their counterparts. Well since Lin doesn't pass the eyeball test, their fight must go on. Which begs the question, who's really delusional? Lin haters or Lin fans? Lin haters, continue believing what you want to believe.. lol
Did you know that Lin was playing in the rest of the series? I have never seen a player make so many crucial mistakes as Lin did during that series. I knew his BBIQ was bad, but I had no idea it was THAT bad.
^ Lin was the reason we lost that series. It's not because of McHale's poor coaching, Harden's lackadaisical defense, weak power forward position, non-existent bench play, poor defensive strategy against LaMarcus Aldridge, or Parsons getting outplayed on both ends of the floor. I thought everyone understood that.
That was Parson's not switching fast enough, but no, Portland should thank Jeremy for <iframe width="560" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/vh_wLpQjh6k" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> <iframe width="560" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/z6Ad04Kuzdc" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
Lin and Devin Brown really have something in common.. losing the ball in when they're suppose to hold it.
Lin fans don't care if the Lakers win or lose. All they care is that Lin is there and he exists. it justifies their existence. Lin could be the guy throwing T-shirts in the crowd, and he would be the greatest t-shirt thrower they have ever seen. They would think other t-shirt throwers get their t-shirt throwing job because of affirmative action and Lin had to throw thousands of t-shirts but nobody would hire him to throw shirts in a big arena because of his background and life story. It doesn't matter if Lin throws the t-shirt and completely misses his target or throws the t-shirt over the backboard or he drops the t-shirt or if some fan rolls up behind him and steals a t-shirt. Lin is the greatest t-shirt thrower and no truth will ever change their minds.
tinman the lone crusader of truth and justice! don't ever stop posting in this thread, THEY WILL SEE THE LIGHT ONE DAY he had 3 good games, and 3 bad games. net neutral
Lin is finding out that Hollywood is definitely not Houston. <iframe width="420" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/W44VtqfaSSo" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> She dreams of fame She changed her name To one that fits the movie screen She's headed for the big time, that means She's going Hollywood She's going Hollywood tonight She's going Hollywood She's going Hollywood tonight She's going Hollywood She's going Hollywood tonight It's true, that you, may never ever have that chance again
I never said Lin was the reason we lost the series. I said Lin made crucial mistakes and has a very low BBIQ, both of which are true statements.
This is the only place in NBA history, where a no-good one-trick scrub role player is blamed for so long for a 2-4 first round exit with home court, while we had the best Center, best SG, and an all-defensive second team starting PG. Grow up and move on. Seriously, you don't like him and now he's gone, no need to jump up and down for every single TO Lin's having for another team. After all, he played 2 years for the team.
Not coach's fault, not the two superstar's fault, not the final execution on the 3pt's fault, but a role player waiting to be traded who is not even a starter.
