    Let's all play a prediction game... Predict Lin's 3 point shooting percentage next year...

    An update from Lin's shooting coach:

    Lin shot 33.9% from 3 last year... (Career High) He started off TERRIBLE from 3 shooting in the high 20 percentage range but shot in the 40%'s for a few months post all-star break to bring his average up to 33.9%.

    My prediction is he will shoot 36.3%.

    He'll prove all the doubters wrong.

    42%, channeling his inner Kenny Smith.

    If he shoot 39 percent or better, I hope he sticks around. That is all he needs to be the perfect point guard for a championship team.

    He's had the form and stroke, the only problem is he wasn't accustomed to taking those in spot up situations.

    Now that he'll have a full season under his belt his shot and skills should be greatly improved.

    Ya D12 shot 80+% free throw in practice. Let's see if Lin's shot can translate into real game situation.

    133%. When he makes a three its really a 4, and he will make all his 3s.

    78% is only a "C+," which is an "F" for Asians.

    Lol his shooting coach said the same thing last year. Practice doesn't mean it'll translate to real games. With that said, I think it'll improve quite a bit.
