Point being, all of those euros were projected as being potential category busting all stars capable of playing multiple positions and of being...
Pau is a very good player, of course. But he doesn't have the heart to challenge Kobe and the coach to make himself a no. 1 option. Shaq did, but...
GM's and fans have been over-hyping euro's to a laughable extent for a long time. Darko, Kukoc, Kirilenko, Rubio were all supposed to be unique...
Asik's dunks and blocked shots are off the charts. In 3 years Asik will be the best C in the league. FAIL.
Check out lightningbolt's posts.
It was high: 4.8 tpg vs. 3.4 tpg for Rubio again for 36 mpg. Lin also produced record numbers for his first 7 starts as well, as well as leading...
Their assists averages are basically identical per 36 min.: 8.6 vs. 8.3; Lin was able to score about 20 ppg per 36 in addition however, while...

Smh.....
I meant to respond to kuku's post. BTW, to say that Lin and Carmelo played well together is pointless without statistics. I doubt those making...
Well that's exactly what will happen and of course Carmelo will look for a scapegoat when he struggles. Are you listening Woody?
Yes, there is a clear psychological underpinning for that, call it cognitive dissonance, call it racism or just confusion, Lin was a category...
A young productive starting center is going to command a salary of roughly $10 mil. Asik is on the low end of that average, so it's not out of line.
Lin's true experience (substantial minutes) is closer to a couple dozen games, not two seasons.
