    Bingo. He is single because he wants this lifestyle.

    He has lovers but does not want to commit. This whole faith thing did not stop Dwight from having 8-9 kids with different women.

    He needs to get his @$$ into the gym and practice some repition step back jumpers, to get himself more space from his opponents. Also needs to learn how to shoot floaters. But there doesnt seem to be any hope for him , he's plain awful and continues to look embarassing.

    honestly I would watch this. Rush Hour 5

    Lin: Hey man I'm gonna practice shooting this ball
    Nick: The hell you doing! NEVER touch a black man's basketball
    Lin: Wait!...I don't want any trouble
    Nick: Do you understand the words coming out of my mouth!?
    Lin: Yes, Nick. I was born in Torrance. We've been through this. I wasn't born on another continent.

    MacDonald: “What are the examples of classes you took?”

    Lin: “I was an economics major and sociology minor. Classes are macro economics and I was interested in urban communities and non profit and why communities are the way they are and the cycle of poverty.

    Young: “What are you talking about? He lost me a while ago.”

    Lin: “We have a different target demographic out here. Some of you give Swaggy the Cliff Notes when I’m done.”

    I didn't watch the game today, but looking at the boxscore - Lin must be a real turnstyle on defense.

    Lin 4/8 10 pts 2 rebs 1 ast 0 stls 3 turnovers -26
    Paul 9/15 24 pts 2 rebs 11 asts 3 stls 1 turnover +44

    And there's still another quarter to go!

    A blowout like this is hardly a 1 man job. The Lakers team just look dispirited.

    If any one person is to blame as the root of this, it's really Kobe Bryant. He fails to make even a token effort on defense (like just raising his hand), shoots crappy and turns the ball over a ton just throwing wild passes. And all this from you "team leader" that the coach is afraid to criticize.

    If someone is determined to blow the game for his team, he wouldn't have played much differently than Kobe does this game. This is ****ing TMac in Toronto level bull****.

    It's not like the Lakers have that much talent, but those guys actually managed to be competitive in Portland last game in the 2nd half of back to back just actually putting in some effort. Tonight, nothing.

    Looks like Tarik got his first minutes as a Laker. 12 minutes, 5 points , 3 boards, and a +/- of +11 which is notable because everyone else was something crazy between -15 and -34.

    I've always been a big fan of Tarik Black ... He is too good to let go.

    Dear Jeremy Lin,
    All you have to do is be consistent and leave your religion from public view and you won't have much haters on your side.

    He'll always have haters. They'll stay quieter though.

    This is what Lin's highlight reel has been reduced to; free tacos.
