    1. The starting bigs don't set enough screens.
    2. He plays more like a SG than a PF. His lack of setting screens is the biggest problem.
    3. He just needs to bulk up.
    4. His endurance is poor.
    5. The starting bigs don't set enough screens.

    1. Harden handle ball too much, Lin shoot poor.

    2. Patterson no rebound no set screen, Lin no shoot good.

    3. Parson no pass to Lin, Lin no can shoot.

    4. Asik no come out set screen, no finish by rim, Lin very hard to shoot.

    5. Lin shoot good, all his team fault. Coach Ox fault no play Lin too.

    nothing is wrong he just needs more familiarity with what the coaching staff wants. It's not even half a season yet. But there is no reason for him to become a 16 pt/7.5 assists PG by next season once he starts shooting .400. all he has to do is attempt five more shots. Defensively, he is ok unless he gets caught in screens.

    let it play out.

    He seems to have Christmas tree problems. Too short, like his shot.

    This... when Melo came back at the height of the Linsanity run...

    most LOFs were calling for Lin to go to the bench... because they knew the two wouldnt mesh...

    and thats with Lin having the ball in his hands most of the time...

    now that they have Lin playing like a SG...

    I predict Lin will be probably traded for a bag of chips...

    Let's just hope he can progress throughout the season. He's a young guard that is still learning, he should have a good handle of our system by All-star break. If not, then I would worry and expect more of these threads.

    You're getting as bad as the LOHs. Stop over reacting.

    I think Sampson's type of play is too complicated for jeremy...like..

    take the ball accross the half court
    pass to harden
    go to the corner and wait
    if harden misses, scramble to get the ball
    and.... pass to harden...lol :grin:

    Kidding aside, I don't mind if harden gets the ball majority of the time but we should at least move the ball. Is it hard to make plays that will benefit Harden? I don't think so. As a matter of fact, you look at the first two games after we acquired Harden as proof.

    Seriously, I think the jeremy thrives more with a free flowing offense.

    lin should take the rondo route and try to get his teammates as many open looks as possible. especially is his shot's not falling. a player of lin's talent should average more than 6 assist per game.

    lets face the facts... I cant see him becoming an acceptable SG in the 3 years he has on this current contract...

    plus I didnt start watching the NBA again to watch this kid shoot 3's even if he becomes a NBA shooting champ from 3..

    I came to watch him split double teams... and make the game exciting to watch again...
