Well we will see how well he meshes with Lin pretty soon.

 

Laker Win, Lakers Win at boston.....88-87 in OT pierce with the final shot and ray allens put back attempt blocked by pau gasol.....what a game !!!

 

Iguodala finally given his rightful due. 1st career all star selection. Josh Smith snubbed again imo.

 

Josh Smith should have gotten in over Pierce.

 

That game looked like an old folks home let out at the playground.

Old people trading terrible shots. Embarrassing basketball.

 

It's called respect for your elders, sonny.

 

definately not, it was playoff atmosphere in early february

 

I don't know, when two teams fail to break 90 points in an overtime game that is pretty damn lame offensively.

 

nah.

Just because a game is close, doesn't make it good. The real contrast was the game that followed it on the double header. A Young up and coming team in Sacramento, playing with the West Leader OKC. The contrast was stark.

 

Brandon Jennings is already planning his way out of Milwaukee. Because if a team can't make you a contender in 2.5 years, they never will.

 

No. Wall is not an elite point guard yet. He has insane athleticism but needs some serious coaching and role players around him.

 

Yea, I couldn't live in NYC. I don't even like to visit there.

Did a very brief look into Jeremy Lin's start of his career.

Did a search for which rookie had a better or equal start to his career (OFFENSIVELY) in the first three games.

There has only been one other player in NBA (modern) History (Modern as in all the data I could muster since 1980) to have had a better or equal first three games.

His Name is Lebron James.

 

Edit: Sorry, offensive stats only, so 34 mins, 1-7 FGs, 5 pts, 6 assists, and 1 TO is incomparable to anyone else in the modern era, except for Lebron?

 

Until Lin proves to be a mental midget, please fo not disrespect him by comparing him to LBJ.

TY

 

His "real" first three games didn't qualify. I only took starter minutes. SO I qualified Lin's last three games.

 

John Wall's offensive stats over his 1st 3 starts (his actual first 3 games of his career) look pretty comparable to Lin's.

 

His first game was really bad. It ruins him Heads up vs. Lin. In fact, his 4th game as a pro, till this day is the worst game of his career.

 

In other words, Lin is the greatest player in the universe. On a serious note though, if Lin does actually continue to play well, it could mean D'Antoni keeps his job. That has to have Knicks fans ****ting bricks.

 

If the NBA had started three games ago...then YES, Jeremy Lin would be the world's most dominant athlete.

 

Some New York Hole reporter asked Kobe: "If Lin begins to have one of those games, will you be forced to guard him?"

LOL!!!!!!!!!!

 

It was a Boston reporter Sec.....this is funny....

Actually makes sense. Who else is he going to lock down? Landry Fields?

 

He kind of reminds me of an Asian Steve Nash with his speed and ball handling.

 

I've come to the conclusion that Hawes is easily the most important member of our team. Incredible how different our offense looks when he doesn't play. And not a good type of different either.

 

Pretty sure Lin is winning MVP this year. Sorry LeBron.

 

We'rr have to see once Carmerro comes back. Lin can dribbrr very good and the NYers love him long time, but we'rr see.

 

Get the meat stick out of your mouth when u speak of Lin.

 

Looks like D'antoni has found his new Steve Nash.

 

Yea I keep thinking he won't do it again...but on national tv vs L.A he has a career game.....yea this kid is a player.

 

It looks like the Lakers defense isn't very good to me.

Not to say Lin isn't playing well too, but the Lakers don't look very good either.

 

I think Lin is overrated, personally.

 

Being overrated is overrated.

 

Fair Warning. The Lakers suck. And they were on a second of a back to back after playing a overtime game versus the Boston Zombies.
