    I no longer can tell the difference between LOF-logic, sarcasm, trolling, and a performance art project.

    Boys hella fast. And more than quick enough laterally for most nba guards. But in this case these fools prob dont know the diff between speed n qiuckness n lumped them together. And stereotyped him like most non educated observers. smh.

    Listen, Lin has missed his share of layups recently, so I think (I am hoping) that he is going to make a conscientious effort to dunk more when given the opportunity. Look at Asik, clearly someone has told him to cut his ballet dance layup attempts and just stuff the damn ball, and he has looked much better since. Lin may be taking this advice as well. Lets be frank, dunks are often momentum changers and provies a real spark and energy for a team... Look for him to do it again tomorrow night in front of his hometown fans!! You heard it here first.

    Lin also needs to dunk more for his confidence, his development in this league, and yes his brand. He needs to improve the IMAGE of what his skill set is because you still hear bullsheet about how he is not that quick or is deceptively quick from ither team announcers. Hell even his own coaches don't have any real faith in him, he needs to educate them too.

    Yup.

    There are times when I think Lin is too quick. There are times where it looks like he is about to out run the ball. He really needs to work on his handle some more tighten it up. It will never be as good as Kyrie's is but I think it can still be a lot better.

    Wonder what Clyde whimsical color commentary would sound like if he'd saw this one?

    I disagree, If Lin really makes more dunks, it would be far more damaging for his health than anything. elevating high and coming back to the floor takes a lot strain on your knee and legs, thus making injuries more likely happen.

    And lets face it, Lin is no D Rose in athletcism who seems to elevate with ease, but even Rose is prone to injuries if he keeps playing like this...

    Lin needs to be compared to MVP Steve Nash.

    Lin is lot more athletic than Steve Nash.

    Lin needs a lot more work on his shooting and dribbling and passing skills to become a Steve Nash, and I believe it's possible in a few years.

    You were at that game? nice.

    I lol'd at the student section reaction whenever he scored, especially after that dunk. They were like "Wtf who's this asian kid balling all over the court."

    Lin can dunk, Nash can't.

    Therefore Lin > Nash :p
