Should Jeremy Lin be more involved in the Rocket's offense?

Yes. He is a very good with the ball in his hands, very good finisher and can create for others

We have a TON of talent on this team and just need to mesh now

 

GOOD FIND!

 

with Howard on the team now..he should be more involved with the bench..

 

Well if guys want to trade him, this is the key.

 

Lin needs to be more confident in his ability. He doesnt always have to give the ball to Harden when he crosses the timeline; he chooses to.

 

This is kind of like common sense. When roleplayers shoot a lot, it's because they have a hot hand or are more effective that game for whatever reason.

Like look at Mario Chalmer's highest scoring games last year, he shoots a higher percentage too.

 

is there a way for us to get Chalmers, a draft pick and a throw in to match salaries for Lin?

I think Lin would fit well with Miami and Chalmers can bring that championship experience to nurture Dwight and Harden

 

Lin is more aggressive when he's having a good game? yadontsay.jpg

 

HEY IS THIS A JEREMY LIN THREAD?!@?!?!!?!?!?

 

Everytime some one makes a Lin thread an Angel gets theirs wings.

 

The correlation might also show that Jeremy Lin gets the ball when he is shooting well, rather than showing that he shoots well when he gets the ball.

 

I'm not so sure he should be more involved with the first unit sleepyasian, but def. with the second unit.

 

Yes but not based on those numbers.

Lin is better when he's aggressive, and if it means we can cotton wool Harden then all the better

 

This is probably the case... though I do think he take the reins more often especially with the 2nd unit.

 

oh look, another lin thread

 

Interesting, but how many of these comparisons has he actually done with other players? I'd be willing to bet money that 4/5 NBA players' stats have similar results. Like Patterned said, the increase in shot attempts reflect Lin's frame of mind or confidence level, not the amount of inclusion anyone granted to him during game. When he's got the ball in his hands, he either decides to take the shot or pass it off. The game plan didn't change every other game, but his consistency and willingness to score did.

Here's an article about increased shot attempts:

Still trying to make sense of this..

 

Oh look, another ****ty post from jholmes

 

There many things among Lin's game. Example: Lin is very good clutching player. Someone did an analysis, he played better and scores more in 4th qtr compare to rest of the game time. He also has a better score accuracy when he stays longer in the game.

 

Oh really? Someone else did an analysis and proved that if Aaron Brooks took 40 shots a game we would have won the championship last year. I can't quite remember who.
