People have bad short-term memories, but let's not forget that Lin actually outplayed both Harden and Parsons in the series against Blazers....
It's not crazy at all if you understood Asian American culture and the stark difference between an Asian and an Asian American. Yao Ming is a...
That's the thing, though. Many of Lin's most irrational critics have turned this all into their personal drama about the persecution of being...
Exactly. There is something oddly personal going on here. I mean, the Lin story resonated because it was indeed so personal for many people,...
The hate on this forum is ridiculous. A young player gets a bit overpaid a little bit due to circumstances outside of his control (RFA status,...
An undersized rookie PG is supposed to play major minutes for a contender in the PG superstar-laden Western Conference? Scott Machado, Toney...
Sure, keep telling yourself that in order to ignore the fact that the Rockets basically paid the Lakers to take a key player/expiring contract.
It's certainly a terrible deal because Morey himself said that Lin was worth keeping unless they got a superstar talent with the freed cap space....
I agree it was a team failure, but could you imagine if it was James Harden or Jeremy Lin who was on Lillard when that shot went in? For some...
Parsons stopped playing defense last year. His main contributions in the playoffs was motivating Batum with needless bragging and letting Lillard...
Great point, and one that I keep making as well. It's interesting that some people seem to resent Lin's payday, even when in the end, it didn't...
I definitely agree, except that many here suddenly started to ignore his cap hit and instead use the $15 million figure after his 2nd year. Other...
Rockets only paid him $5 million a year. Rockets fans should decide on whether to measure Jeremy's cost at the cap hit level or the actual...
Some people can't stand the fact that Lin simply dared to stay in the league, even after the circus of Linsanity ended. Whether his salary was...
The problem is not that the Rockets have gotten worse (though without Asik and Lin, I certainly think so); the problem is that the Rockets have...
What are you talking about? Most I saw was that "Linsanity" troll post a few times. I've seen far more people spew classless vindictive hate...
He wasn't overpaid at $5 million a year, which is what the Rockets ended up paying for his 2 years. If Lin folded like a "lawn chair," then so...
Now that the Rockets have traded him, we effectively got a decent player at $5 million a year for the last 2 years. That was a very good deal.
Credit to you for realizing your error. Lots of people were more than happy to classify Lin as an $8.3 million player (when that was his CAP...
1) McHale (he already got just as much blame as Lin did this postseason) 2) Beverley (without Lin, he doesn't get automatic goodwill from LOH...
