    How much longer will Lin be in the league? I don't know why any team(other than one intentionally trying to lose) would want a player who puts up those kinds of stats on their roster.

    To be fair it was one game. If he did that every game you would actually have a point.

    So at the half on NBA TV against the Clippers (a good team), Lin goes for 2 points on 0/5 shooting, 1 assist and 2 TO's and having some dude called Jabari Brown eat into his minutes

    But but but, according to Lin fans, it was the Rockets and Harden and McHale and Morey who were racists and marginalizing Lin. Well deserved match made in heaven between Lakers and Lin.

    LOL

    Don't be surprised if he crawls back to Houston on a small contract. Just saying.

    They're laughing at you Lin, not with you.

    One game?

    Is this a joke?

    Do you think we cannot go back and check his stats for this season?

    Of course we can and I just did.

    If it holds up tonight, this will be 22nd game this season where he has been that bad.

    Not average, not borderline bad-average but just really bad.

    2-8 from the field and more turnovers than assists against the Clippers.

    Can it get any worse for Lin fanatics?

    Yes it can.....

    As they say...objects in the mirror are closer than they appear.

    This season and his two seasons with us confirms what most of us already knew, that Lin is nothing more than an average to below average NBA player. This team was the perfect team to stat pad and Lin wasn't much better even after Kobe's injury. Lin fans should be happy though, Lin went from not even able to get a D1 scholarship to being a mediocre player in the NBA, that's still quite impressive, so no need to get angry that reality is no one is holding Lin back and what you see is what Lin is.

    His overall stats are decent enough to be NBA worthy but yes he has a lot of clunkers.

    having a more than a quarter of a season worth of clunkers is not NBA worthy at all

    Unless he's coming back to be a cheerleader on the bench, I don't want any part of Lin on this team. He's a mediocre player at best and he singlehandedly cost the Rockets a playoff game(and nearly coughed up another) last year.

    Eh, I'd take him for cheap as our 3rd string PG that we put in when we need a bit of a boost of energy.

    That's his problem. So inconsistent. Lakers was his chance to basically stat-pad for a year and he failed in that regard.

    That blonde is HOT!

    Maybe it was intentional. Like the rom-com "meetcute" crap.

    No nash, no kobe, no swaggy p, no playoff contention. No pressure whatsoever.

    Should have gone full Linsanity, but didn't. Shows that was just a streak on a bad team with the typical new york hype.

    Lin fanatics are hiding. This thread is only entertaining when both parties are engaged.

    Sad times.
