    I really don't understand why this thread is still so active, even months after their season ended.

    I guess there's a lot to talk about.

    > Asian
    > LOH v LOF
    > Lin's basketball skills
    > Lakers

    And now, he's an UFA, iirc. So add that juicy morsel to the mix.

    - Asian - How the hell is that a topic?
    - LOH v LOF - There is no such thing as a LOH. There are only people who critique bad players.
    - Lin's basketball skills - What skills?
    - Lakers - **** them.

    There. I did it. Let's now take what remaining carcass that's left of the horse and make some hot dogs.

    And the funny thing about the term LOH is that the very meaning works against Lin Only Fans.

    Let's go through it by logic

    • Lin Only Hater means someone who ONLY hates Jeremy Lin.
    • That means this person like or tolerates everyone else.
    • Which means they are likely not racist because they like or tolerate every other Asian basketball player not named Jeremy Lin.
    • And a person who hates only one player in the entire league would suggest that something is terribly wrong with that one player. Like if a group of movie critics are known to give most movies a passing grade but bashes one particular movie, then that movie must be very bad.

    am I the only one that thinks that Jeremy Lin is going to be "Our Big Free agent Signing"
    Personally I down for it as long as we dont break up the core of our team.

    I think it's safe to say this place would melt down Chernobyl style if that were to happen.

    He has no shot and makes crucial errors in critical moments.... He's not even worth vet min..

    Your nothing more than a hater if you believe this. I'm not even a fan of Lin but I would more than welcome him to the team for a minimum contract he's easily worth that. Lin belongs in this league whether people like you want to admit it or not.

    Imagine if Bev went to the Mavs and we signed Lin. My goodness, I think most CF members would just fall over and die.

    The problem here is Lin thinks he's better than he is, he act humble on the outside but deep inside he still thinks he can be Insanity again, just needs that one chance. So if you bring him in you're gonna have some drama on the team with his passive aggressive attitude, when he does get PT he's gonna look to force the issue etc etc. I'd be surprised if we bring him back even for the vet min.

    Speaking of Lin's falling stock....

    Currently on another vacation in Asia with my family....

    Yesterday we were at a bookstore. My 6 year old loves Doraemon (heck I love Doraemon as well) and was looking for some Doraemon comics. She stumbles upon a Jeremy Lin book and asks us to help her look for a James Harden book.

    My wife responds, "You are not going to find that in this section. This is the 90% off section."

    I love that woman.

    Anyways....looks like Jeremy Lin's stock has fallen considerably in Asia as well.

    Most analysts think his worth is ~5M yr. from what I've read. Not sure about that but he belongs in the NBA.

    If he re-signs with the Lakers we get to keep this thread around and set some kind of internet record for most posts in a single thread for the next couple of years.

    A dagger to the heart and wishful thinking of Jeremy Lin fans thinking Nuggets will hire D'Antoni and then hand over the reign to Jeremy Lin at point guard.

    News flash: Nuggets already have Lawson, who is in a different class (non-scrub class) than Jeremy Lin.

    Why would Nuggets get rid of Lawson and start over with Jeremy Lin of all people?

    Surely even Nuggets cant be that dumb??

    Dumb Lin worshippers gonna keep dumb dumbing.
