I haven't known you for long Red but I'm glad to know that I can always count on you to misstate what I've said. I really don't know what I'd do without you.
You're like a mini Tinman. You walk in here claiming that you are just presenting what everyone else is not seeing. That you see through Jeremy Lin, but in reality you're just here to hate because you can't stand the fact that he may be overrated. You can't stand the fact that people like him. Its obvious this thread is a Jeremy Lin circle jerk stay out or continue to get barraged by Lin fans. Its that simple.
I'm fine staying. If i cared about getting barraged by Lin fans I would have left a long time ago. I really enjoy the back and forth.
The classic you are just a hater response. It really is the go to for people that don't like when you don't like the same things they do.
The reason why there are so many Lin threads is because the official one is spoiled by silly arguments.
For those who are criticizing Lin on his recent turnover binge: In 5 of his last 6 games, Lin has amassed 34 turnovers. In those 5 games, the Knicks as a team have 84 turnovers. The opposing team has 86 turnovers. Lin has played 192 minutes in those 5 games, so the rest of the Knicks have played 1008 total minutes and had only 50 turnovers in those 5 games. If you average it out, that comes to a turnover every 20.2 minutes for the rest of the players. So, if they all maintained their same turnover rates during this span and played without Jeremy Lin, they'd average only 11.9 turnovers as a team per 48 minutes. For the NBA as a whole, if you remove PGs from the equation, there were 10005 turnovers committed in 172080 total minutes. That comes to 1 turnover every 17.2 minutes. Or, 14 turnovers as a team per 48 minutes (assuming same turnover rates, no PGs). The point is just to illustrate that with Lin handling the ball a ton, his turnovers will be higher but also his teammate's turnovers will go down. What matters is overall team turnovers.
The anniversary of the tsunami is upcoming, so maybe his heart is with his fellow countrymen at this time.
Kim Kardashian's PR wants her to date Lin. http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-G9Lz7CtlFzc/Ta882hl7MmI/AAAAAAAAAUI/TqZvzqn6GzI/s1600/warren-buffett.jpg If that happens NY will become the favorite to win it all.
