    Is it me or since he signed with Adidas, he always slips whether when he's trying to pass by a screen or trying to halt a drive to take a jumper (his last shot in the 4th quarter tonight). What kind of shoes is he wearing anyways? They look like some 60$ sneakers you buy at Foot Locker

    I think they're Pro-Wings. XJ900's to be exact.

    You have a point. His at the rim and shooting fg % did go down since signing with Adidas. The hyperfuse were his shoe...

    Oh god. What has to happen for Lin to play well? The right teammates? Enough minutes for him to warm up? Warm rice on every meal? The planets aligning?

    It's not that he can't keep his dribble, it's that he still can't shoot or have the confidence. That makes everything else harder as defenders back off and pack the paint and even trap much easier.

    He has some mental issues as well. Needs to work on not sulking in bad times and keep his confidence high. Gets disengaged in the game way too often, and no it's not all Harden/McHale's fault.

    No it wasn't his new shoes. I blame the new Volvo that he is now driving.
