K. AB is dog**** breakky at this juncture. Bev and Parsons have not delivered on their hype yet. So at this juncture, Lin is definitely better than those 2.
How do you know if a player is a All-Star caliber? Isn't that vote by fans? If I recalled it correctly, last year JLin votes count was almost beat CP3. So this year he DEFINITELY will be at the All-Star games. There is no doubt about that.. A huge question will Harden able to maintain enough votes count this season with his laughable no-defense, and worse attitudes now exposed on national TV. Will any All-Star coach selecting him is another question?
This sounds like a troll statement from somebody who joined in 2001 ????? Brooks is better than Lin, even LOH's wouldn't say something so ridiculous.

Lin is shooting at a 59% level on his 2 point shots. Lin is shooting 44% at the three. It seems like a guard shooting at that level could play with anyone. Just saying.
What point are you making? If it's that Win Shares over a 6 game sample, where players are playing in unusual roles, coming off preseason/early season injuries, are a pretty ****ing useless metric, then okay, I agree. If it's something else, please explain it to me. I'm dense.
If we're going to get a dominant PF, asik alone isn't going to be enough to get another star, likely it'l be a lin and asik package. For right now though, i think they can co-exist. Like ive said before, they just can't be on the court at the same time. Have lin run the second team.
I'm not making a point. I'm providing data. If you would prefer me to state my opinion on something, look around for some of my other posts.
Lin is the backup when Harden goes down with injury. Perhaps, you should tell the world who is picking up the offense when Harden sits out a few games. NBA is such a long season, mind to share with us your plan.
When people quoted my opinion post and provide data, I tend to be an idiot and assume they're trying to make a point, despite how meaningless and useless that data is. I'm such a ****ing moron.
