    Even with a blown ACL the celtics would laugh at you if you wanted rondo for lin.

    I would love for you to conclusively find more than 3 "LOH" in the last 20 pages or so.

    In fact I would love to see if you could actually point out posts that would qualify someone as a "LOH".

    He is jot a troll he is a fan. Some of the stuff he said is true. I havent seen a valid counter argument from you guys yet.

    Ewing and Sprewell never had a crazy start like Lin did is what I think he is saying. Obviouslu Lin isnt anywhere close to them.

    I agree that Lin definately help out Novak. Probably saved his career. I mean he played with a bunch of scrubs other than Chandler during that stretch.

    Why do both loh and lof bump this thread? Go bump another lin thread when he does good.

    Lin, Dragic and Lowry

    Thought I'd bring up what the stats on how these 3 players are doing so far:

    Lin 12ppg, 3.8rbs, 6.1ast, 42fg%
    Dragic 14ppg, 2.8rbs, 6.3ast, 44fg%
    Lowry 13.5ppg, 4.5rbs, 5.8ast, 42fg%

    I don't think there's any one player that is putting up significantly better numbers than the rest of the bunch.

    The best stats player I guess would have to be Lowry. Yes their numbers are similar but Lowry only plays 27.5 min while the rest plays 32 (dragic) and 33 (Lin). So if we make Lowry play the same numbers as Lin his stats are 16.3ppg, 5.4rbs, and 7apg.

    Statistically out of the 3 Lowry has been better

    Maybe - by no means do I mean to sound like a Lin apologist but you sould consider the fact that both Dragic and Lowry have higher usage rate than Lin (Lin - 19.6, Dragic - 21.2, Lowry - 23.5). Kyle is allowed to call his own number any time he's on the court with the ball and same for Goran. They're sorta expected to do that.

    Questionable whether Lin is in a similar situation when he's playing w/ Harden, another ball-dominant guard.

    But in any case, I would say Dragic is having a better year overall, not statistically but he's burdened with running a dysfunctional team and he's doing a pretty good job at it under the circumstances and his efficiency hasn't dropped significantly from last year.

    Yeah right so Lin has to average 38 points against Spurs tier teams to be Linsanity level for you. Time for you to wipe the rabid foam off your mouth.

    Well, he's 11.2 ppg, 5.3 apg the last 10 games. That's pretty **** no matter how you slice it.

    Will you guys stop calling the Knicks a bunch of scrubs? It's disrespectful and it's just to prop Lin up. Remember Lin was also considered a "scrub."

    Tyson - champion, DPoY
    Shump - NOT a scrub
    Novak - a one dimensional specialist but not a scrub
    Jared Jeffries - OLD but not a scrub, good leader
    Bill Walker - ok, this guy is a scrub
    Fields - maybe a scrub or just sophomore slump, was injuried this season in TO
    Amare - people conveniently forget he only missed a few games due to his brother's death. He's in decline but not a scrub!

    Why should I? It's become what it is. Lin bashing. At least it's contained and controlled.

    So Rockets fans aren't allowed to bash Rockets players on a Rockets fan message board without being called a hater? And you wonder why Rockets fans can't stand LOFs?

    What I find ironic is that LOFs like to blame everyone from the coach to our PFs(can't set screens) to Asik(can't catch a pass) to Harden(hogs the ball) to fans(hatin) on why Lin has played so subpar. Yet that apparently isn't hating.

    Hypocrisy at its finest.

    What a cop out response. You can't do it so you play the "why should I" card.

    Knickskiller: "ROFL GUIZ I IZ SO SMART!1!one!"

    Open question to any Lin fan since Knickskiller doesn't want to respond...

    Who is a LOH on this site? Just name a few.

    Of course you will intentionally choose the last 10 games in most of which Lin performed bad and and conveniently ignore the previously good stretch during which Lin was playing well.

    Just so know, two post above somebody just listed Lin's this season stats so far. Of course you want to pretend you are blind and did not see it so you can just use the word '****' to describe Lin to get yourself high. :rolleyes:

    Of course fans are allowed to bash who they want!

    But if you can't see how Lin would have much better stats if he had the ball in his hands longer playing PG instead of SG, how many more assists if Asik could catch passes and hops, how better 3pt % if Lin could shoot them off the dribble instead of spotting up and how much better he could drive to the rim if he had a screen set for him most of the times as other high profile PGs have... than you are blind and an hypocrite too.
    Only thing u are right is the fan hating... guess Lin don't give a shi* about that!

    Realistically how much better would Lin be if he gets to handle the ball 90% of the time, and how much better would the team be if he does that, and how much Harden would suffer without the ball in his hands all the time.
