I really like the idea of Lin w/ Harden and Howard. Obviously i'd prefer a guy like Rondo if we can get him, but to the people saying Calderon would be better than Lin? Just a big HELL NO to that
Yeah he was a non-factor last season... I want to see Lin play with D12 this coming year. I have a feeling it's going to be fun to watch...
Thank you. One guy can get better and the other can only get worse and has zero athleticism and can't penetrate.
Mavs signed Jose Calderon to a 4 year, 29 million deal. Fan reactions? Calderon Played For The Raptors For Years And He Is Shown In A Pistons Uniform? Watched him play a lot for the last four years. Some things to know about him. 1. He gets injured a lot. Not serious injuries but enough to keep him out of games for a couple of weeks or more 2. He walks the ball up the court and over dribbles. Rarely will he ever throw a psss from the backcourt 3. Medicore defender at best though he tries. 4. Great dimes guy 5. Very good shooter including from beyond the arc. 6. Great teammate Why are we so high on this guy?
This is just false. Was he slightly better the previous year with Lin? Yea, but if you compare his numbers I don't see how you come to the conclusion he was bad. This past season He had a better PER, Ortg, OWS, TOV%, REB%... Far, far, far from "bad without Lin"
But during Linsanity he was putting up numbers he had never put up on insane shooting numbers, then Melo came back and uh yeah you know the rest
Jeremy makes his offensively challenged teammates better. He has trouble making himself better with offensively competent teammates.
Lin needs to redeem himself for his crappy performance in the playoffs. He needs to play above his contract this season. I will not accept anything less.
I'm talking about the 10 game stretch where it was Lin,Fields,Walker,Jeffries,chandler he had some really good un-chandler like scoring games in that stretch, he averaged close to 13.9ppg, his best year he average 11.8
"Stop blaming Lin when he never gets any picks. Dwight didn't want to do PnRs with Nash in LA either. Even Nash struggled without PnRs. What do you expect out of Jeremy who is still practically a rookie? McFail needs to tell Dwight to do more PnRs" "Why Dwight iso in the post when we have Jeremy Lin. Dwight has no offensive game. We should run the offense through Jeremy Lin." "Jeremy Lin should be finals MVP" Can't wait.
Anyway why u defending a Knick - remember the pressure on Lin from the press before the first Knicks vs Rockets game. In those games specifically Felton was trying to outdo him, Lin Burnt him flat out. We wiped Tyson Chandler's arse clean last year Nah Dah GAME OVER . even stephen a smith accepted it. so why can't you?
