Jeremy Lin is a quality player - except on the 2nd half of a back-to-back.

    That Miami game where the media ripped him for going 1-11 and 8 TO?
    2nd half of a back-to-back.

    Do you have the stats for the other players as well? I think this maybe a common trend on the entire team/ league. Everyone on this team except harden seems to suck on these b2b

    It is what it is. You would expect most players stats to go down with less rest (especially on back-to-backs), but I'm glad to see he has steadily improved all season.

    Actually lack of rest days hurt young players more. Torocan posted the article before in a different thread but I'm on mobile and can't search easily.

    Parson's is pretty bad too, although not as bad.

    But comparatively Lin has one of the worst 2nd half b2b stats for a starting NBA pg next to Mario Chalmers. He needs to improve his stamina period, but of course the LOFs don't think so. It's all McHale who's holding him back.

    I remember Bill Worrell mentioning something about his home vs road play as well. Anyone have the stats?

    When you lack nba experience its not a bad excuse. I expect this to be less of a problem next season. He was coming off a knee injury this season too.

    it's called double-double animal style (that means with grilled onions), and fries animal style.

    get it right!

    There's no In and Out burger around my area. Is it really that good? Much better than five guys? I like five guys.
