The team on the floor did. It takes 5. Just because I think Flynn did better means I didn't watch the game? Cmon man. Theres a reason why he's coming off the bench before Dragic. And it's not because he sucks. If you asked me, I'd keep Flynn and Lin and trade Dragic.
He is an American with roots in Taiwan, or Chinese Taipei. Not sure if that qualifies as having a Chinese background though.
You lost me with the "Asian" reference, but now I totally don't know what planet you're on, with all due respect. Rafer drove me crazy. Rafer drove huge numbers of us crazy. When Rafer was traded, I had a smile on my face for a week.
He qualifies. <iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/NRg-_j1n5zM" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> <iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/fHj2EKFWOHQ" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> <iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/ARFmtP8tzms" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
You sure he doesn't belong in a league with the likes of Kahwi Leonard, Gani Lawai, Luke Zeller and Frank Hassell?
Most people here are saying Lin over Flynn off 2 measly preseason games. Flynn is easily the better player. He's still getting his feel for the game back, he hasn't been "himself" since early 2010. Lin played good ball in the limited PT he got, and I'd be fine with him as the #3 PG. But he's simply not nearly the player Flynn is, and that will show if either got extended PT. Ask Golden State fans. I am in favor of trading Flynn, just because we already have a high level backup PG in Dragic.
I wasn't trying to sound condescending, everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but the constant dribbling of Flynn truly disgusted me and he just seems to be in his own world playing out there. I think that reason is because McHale is in Flynns corner or someone is about to be traded or released. Flynn hasn't given me anything to believe he would even be a decent player in this league, but we'll see how the roster shakes out.
How is that Lin's fault for playing against scrubs when he was given only 5 mins of play towards the end of the 4th quarter???
In all fairness, if Flynn is getting his feel for the game back then Lin is barely getting his chance to get adjusted to the game as well. He himself was a rookie last season and didn't get major minutes. I do agree it is only pre-season, but how he played with the Warriors last season is only a glimpse of what he can do considering that Jeremy said he worked on his jumpshot a lot during the off-season which was a big knock. Jeremy is a hustle and grind type of player, attacking the basket and stripping players. He compared his style to Dragic.
Jonny Flynn is 2-10 FGs on the preseason. That will NOT win suport. Flynn does have 10 assists to just 2 turnovers. He also leads the team in BOTH assists and free throw attempts believe it or not. Free throws is something Lowry is credited for. Plus he rebounded the ball decently (5 rbs). Jeremy Lin is the better finisher around the hoop. By far a better defender and higher motor. He doesn't seem to massage the air out the ball entire shot clock. Its closer than it appears..
I'm going with Flynn. He's more proven than Lin at this point. Maybe things might change in the future, but we'll see.
Give Flynn some time. Jeeze lol. The guy has already shown he can produce in the league, he obviously has potential. Lin is a nice pickup, but I wouldn't take him over Flynn.
