    It's just horrific how they portray Lin as a main cog though. He's clearly tradeable and not. Why so many post game interviews?

    Bruce lee spent most of his time in Hong Kong making movies.

    Besides Bruce lee doesn't suck!

    Bruce lee had many hits and would have passed the ball on a three on one break

    The Bruce lee movies had more action than the Jeremy Lin movie

    He showed confidence in getting that chick. He knew what he wanted and took it. Lin could use his leadership.

    Nah, everyone liked Herschel so it wouldn't fit. Tinman wouldn't make that far anyways in post-apocalyptic zombie world. He can probably be likened to one of the nameless old guys in the first few episodes of season 1 that couldn't make it.

    James Harden is Tyreese. Gives zero f---s and is a zombie killing machine out there.

    There is only one person who could be compared to Jackie Robinson on this team, and his name is James Harden.

    He faces facial discrimination everyday like no other. McHeil even told him not to play defense so people would have a reason not to consider him a top player in this league.

    As a last act of desperation to ruin James Harden, McBeth told Beverley, who is perfectly healthy (seen when he ran and enthusiastically chest bumped Garcia even though he tore his miniscus) to sit out as many games as he possibly can. McDonald's low wages-Hale isn't an idiot, he knows Lin and Harden are not a good fit on the court. He knows their overlapping skills will only serve to reduce Harden's over all effectiveness on the court, and thus hurt his chances of becoming an all-NBA player.

    But Harden has been through thick and thin beards, not even McBenchplayer will stop him now.

    Lin is Lizzie not Carl. Someone needs to get rid of him before his crappiness spreads.

    Glenn has been consistent and dependable on walking dead.

    Lin's decision making on the floor is zombie like, except the zombies don't make jump passes
