    SSP365 created a thread about believing in God in the DD

    now i understand why he hates lin preaching about God so much


    it's because SSP doesn't believe in god.
    this is just sad

    People were too quick to judge the Knicks and their players when they called Lin "big headed".

    I don't believe in God either, but I don't have that much hate in me for anything (except for spiders - I really hate spiders).

    Lin did get the max allowable salary allowed by rule for a 3 year deal. I do think it was based part on potential but I think a big part was making the contract less likely for NY to match.

    Respect to Hakeem, but you, me, and all your friends in Houston can attest to the fact that the best player in the world at that time wasn't playin in Houston, nor was he playin in the NBA.

    That's right, he was drafted in 96 and would win his first ring 4 years later.






    haha i kid again.. :) nothing pisses houstonians off like saying the name of he who cant be named.

    Dude relax and just don't click on the link

    Dude relax and just don't click on the link if you don't want to see what he has to say. He obviously has a lot of loyal fans that do care or else there wouldn't be LOF and 20,000 people who go to just see him talk. Him being Chinese obviously going to generate a lot of fans that are interested in his : asia tours, social media videos, interviews, lisantiy movie, and commercials. The guy wants to give his fans what they want, its what sports and anyone in the spotlight should do. It's better then brushing off the little kid that just wants a autograph. If you don't like it, don't click on the links or watch the videos. You seem more full of yourself or jealous by making a comment like that because first no one cares what you think, and second everyone knows if you don't like it, its your job to not go view the videos, why come out and complain about something that you did to yourself.

    delusions of grandeur by jeremy lin. he's just like his thirsty fanbase.

    this guy utters the words he's suppose the be the savior/franchise player but somehow people find away to defend his literal spoken words with ridiculous "its taken out of context" defense.

    It just goes to show you if you put up a fake, humble, nice guy front, people will defend you to the ends of the earth.

    Invoke religion into it and you get warlike kamikaze zealots on your side.

    "supposed to" just means that's what Morey told him when they recruited him.

    You know, back in high school losers and douchbags had no right no say anything, anything they say or do will be laughed at, the best case for them is to try and disappear. Anyone who's caught next to them or even talking to them will be marked, they lose their friends, if any.

    SSP365 is a very good example of a high school loser, prolly a victim of bullying. If you reply to a loser or a douchbag, you will be marked as a loser yourself, embarrassing, yes.


    But the most embarrassing thing is arguing with a mental r****dation imbecile.
    As far as I know SSP365 could be a 233 lb 5'5 who sits on his ass all day looking at exotic pictures.

    Hey don't get me wrong, I love SSP365 I wish him the most success in life, but the truth is the truth.

    Thats unfair man. I wouldn't come to conclusions like that about someone you've never met before.

    He's clearly telling a simplified story of his storybook rise and his houston setbacks while adding exaggerations to make it more dramatic and overstate his hubris IN ORDER TO MAKE A POINT to the kids in the audience.

    It's like when a screenwriter writes a film 'based on a true story'. The real story is probably not as dramatic and complicated. But if you have to tell a 'parable' to kids to teach an important lesson, of course he'll tell it like this.

    Still, that "coaches were losing faith in me" bit is an eye opener.
