knew about jeremy lin when he was in harvard, first saw him play during the rookie summer camp games burning john walll before his first season, gave up hope when he was playing like a pussy in golden state, n now puttin it down in MSG
its gonna be real interesting when they start playing tight d on him and send him the double teams.

lin > kobe
-
he's way better than i initially thought....don't know if he really played like a pussy in Golden State, though. seems to me like he really never got an opportunity until Pringles (D'Antoni) decided to roll with him. kinda makes me wonder if Sun Yue could be beastin if givin the right opportunity. word is, Knicks were going to waive Lin before the Tuesday deadline. Then, Pringles gives him some run and he has his incredible outburst. The plan was to waive him and sign Mike James prior to his game against New Jersey a week ago.

Of all the franchises that needed to get lucky, it had to be New York. They spend all kinds of money on Mellow and Amare and they are still terrible. Then some guy signed for the league minimum starts playing like an MVP. Being from a small market I wish this type of thing could of happened to a small market team. But ohh well, I like New York.
-
^ The Knicks were actually playing good ball with Amare, it wasn't until they traded for Carmelo that things went downhill, he wasn't good for the chemistry and after giving up Billups they didn't have a true PG. But yeah, they definitely caught a break here.
-
melo is a ballstopper..his style of play goes against d'antoni's offense.

i bet the Knicks sure as hell wish they could have that trade back

Landry Fields did better than Lin this game wish other players would get their credit.
Lin shot 8/24 and 4/7 from the line and also had 6 turnovers. wasn't a great game by any stretch of the imagination

i watched the whole game...Lin played great in the first half and sucked ass in the second. he was gassed, though, so it could be a conditioning issue.
Wolves woulda won if Pekovic played the 4th quarter...strange coaching decision, considering Pekovic was BEASTIN alongside Kevin Love.

This story is as much about Lin as Melo and STAT being overrated players ... great scorers but nothing else ... you can blame Antoni or whoever you want but you are going nowhere as a team with Melo and STAT being your leaders ... yet medias and lots of fans keep ignoring the fact

Melo might be the most overrated player in recent NBA history. When a player who didn't improve any relevant NBA team he's ever been on gets praised as a franchise player and by some as even the best at his position (better than LeBron), it's hard to think of anyone more overrated.
Denver is now better than before the trade, too. lol

I completely agree ... I can't find a team doing that well after trading its franchise player

u fotgettin that Melo took the Nuggets to the WCF? come on, now...nowadays, he doesn't get nearly as much praise as LeBron or any of the other superstars. i think he's just an awful fit for D'Antoni's system, and this Knick resurgence with him out just proves it.

Melo was the leader of that team..
-
^ I dono, when they traded AI people on the team (including Melo) were talking about how Billups was going to provide a needed leadership presence. Melo is a great player, but he's never really struck me as the type of guy that people gravitate towards..
-
yeah ive never seen Melo as a leader
-

yea, but he was their star and the main focus of the team.... if Melo played for a team with a strong coach and a good system that fit his style of play, he would succeed. he's playin in a system that is horrible for his game, and d'antoni is a really bad coach at adjusting. melo is not as bad as he's currently lookin on the knicks.
-
For whatever it's worth, I remember reading an article showing that when Anthony was on the floor every single player had become a better play with the Nuggets. I have a feeling NIK is right, this just isn't the system Anthony is strives in.

they actually started doing better once he left. But in the playoffs a player like Melo is crucial to have. you have to have a player to take over the game.
look at all the teams that have won it since the century break.
Mavericks (Dirk)
Lakers (Kobe)
Lakers (Kobe)
Celtics (Pierce)
Spurs (Parker)
Heat (Wade)
Spurs (Duncan)
Pistons (Billups)
Spurs (Duncan)
Lakers (Shaq)
Lakers (Shaq)
Lakers (Shaq)
you have to have that player that can take over. Nuggets don't have that right now. Alot of great pieces but in crunch time no one player to take over the game.

yea they played great since he left, but that doesnt mean it couldnt of happened with him still there, he had a great situation in denver much better than NYC. i mean NY is a better place to live, but how can u give up winnning?
and exactly they need that go to player thatll bail them out.
nuggets could of easily been 2 or 3rd shit mayb even 1st seed this year. considering all the veteran teams are all getting older, and their the only veteran team thats still youthful.

Mayweather always a class act. on lin
"Lin is good but all the hype is because he's Asian. Black players do that every night & don't get the same praise"
Wade, Lebron, Durant, Kobe, Rose & Paul not getting enough praise for you?
God Mayweather is a fucking ignorant retard. dude was a bench warmer to a star and more points in his first 5 starts than any other player. but no it is because he is asian. classy.

he's 50% right...the hype wouldn't be as big as it is if Lin weren't Asian. not sayin it wouldn't be a cool story, but not as hyped as it is now.
-
a bench warmer doing better in his 1st 5 starts than any other player in the history of the nba? :o
-
^trust me, i'm as happy about Linsanity as anyone, as I picked him up for my fantasy team...
butttt...Mike D'Antoni's system is definitely helpin those numbers out. of course, he's talented, but those numbers are inflated.

Let's cut the bullshit too though, Lin would have gone to a Division I school if he was black or white. And he wouldn't have gotten the attention because he wouldn't have to battle his way to a starting role like he did.

Harvard is D-1.
If you mean an elite D-1 school like Duke, UNC, Kentucky, etc., I mean I guess you could always make that argument. But in all reality, not to play sterotypes, but he would have a different role if he was Black or White. White guards in college shoot & Black guards in college drive. I watched Lin at Harvard. He was really good there & deservingly so got drafted.

Yeah sorry, a top Division I school. He was a high level high school recruit out of California. And then in College, he was also seen as an elite player but wasn't taken serious because of competition even though advance stats suggested otherwise. It's the "moneyball" effect. People are still wanting to buy players to sell jeans instead of buying players that are actually good. It doesn't matter how they look. 3% of the adult population is taller than 6'2, yet 30% of Fortune 500 CEO's are taller than 6'2. This is just human psychology, and damn straight Jeremy Lin is just another example of this.

exactly....the asian thing works both ways.

Excuse me. You're right. He did go undrafted. I just meant he got a chance to play in the big leagues.

if he were white or black he'd prob go to a much better school with basketball history.

Mayweather called him out for being asain.
-
I'm a big Mayweather fan but that comment was fuckin stupid
the Lin story isn't just because he's playing great for an asian but because he came off as an underdog type player as well... I mean seriously the way he killed the Lakers nobody would of seen that coming... Dude has potential and every player in the NBA has a few bad nights... i want to see what the media is going to say when he has his string of bad nights and see how many people say he was just a "fluke"
personally i think the kid has potential to be a major star/player within the next few years
-
I think if he was black & went to Harvard he'd still get the attention. I think he's only the fourth player ever to play out of Harvard.
But then again, if he was that good & black, he probably would have been at UNC & a top draft pick. Javii has a point in that respect.

u gotta realize though, him being asian does add a whole lot to the hype and the curiosity people have in his game....

Yeah, obviously what Mayweather said wasn't that bright. He's just always going to have that mentality that black people always get ignored which I don't agree completely but is understandable. He makes an unintended point though.
This is from a NY Times Article,
"Some coaches have wondered whether Lin, who is of Taiwanese descent, did not receive a closer look by recruiters because of his ethnicity. Coaches have said recruiters, in the age of who-does-he-remind-you-of evaluations, simply lacked a frame of reference for such an Asian-American talent. "
Lacking a frame of reference is just BS talk of saying we weren't too confident in going with an Asian-American.
-
I mean seriously the way he killed the Lakers nobody would of seen that coming
A lot of people did. Lakers very next game, Calderon put up a career high in Pts in 30. It has a lot to do with Lakers needing a better PG right now.

to be honest, i also thought lin sucked after i seen this earlier in the season:

u should of seen him last year in golden state

^i did...he never looked special, at all. thats why i was sorta shocked by this whole emergence. that layup really made me think he was awful, though.

i thought he had potential after the summer camp games, but when i saw him play in golden state i thought he was done and couldnt play bball at this level.
but btw mark jackson is a horrible coach, did u guys hear his coaching on "the wire" shit he talks a whole bunch of nonsense.
lol i remember the first game he goes "u guys sucks, we know that, but" lol dude didnt talk any X' n O's he just gave them a useless inspirational speech.

great read on Lin's mentality, family, and upbringing: "Jeremy Lin's high school coach is surprised, too" -
http://espn.go.com/espn/commentary/story/_/id/7574452/jeremy-lin-high-school-coach-surprised-too
-
Stanford and UCLA both said they would of started Lin if he played there but they wanted him to walk on. Harvard and Brown guaranteed him a spot on the team.
The problem with what Mayweather said is that the majority of the nba is black so of course nobody is going to hype up a black player. Would of been the same thing if the player was Middle Eastern, Arab or Mexican. If a black dude came into the NHL and served of course he would be the talk of the nation whereas all the other players are white it wouldn't be the big of a deal. Thats the case with any sport where a certain race is a minority. (i.e - Tiger Woods, Yao Ming & The Williams Sisters)
-
Lets be honest here. Lets put aside all the media and espn hype for a sec. The guys started how many games? Yeah, hes been good, and I think it would be a good story, but lets let him actually put a season together before we crown him anything. Mark Sanchez, the Philadelphia Eagles, and countless other overhyped players/teams in any sport would love to have just been left alone to play the game without all this undue bullshit circus.
And before any stat nerd comes in here and says look at his stats i say bullshit anyone can string a successful week together. That being said, I wish the best for the dude (hope the knicks lose though) and this would make a good story if he actually backed it up first.
-
Also, it shows how dumb fans/media are when monta ellis continually gets snubbed every year from the all star game/elite player talk, even tho hes one of the premier scorers and players in the entire league and jeremy lin plays a great week and people are annointing him and comparing him to all time greats.
East coast bias/espn hypemachine at work.
-
FTL now officially stands for "For The Lin." GW 3 at the buzzer?!? #Linsanity
-
This guy's on a roll.
-
If he can do what he's doing against the Bulls, Heat, etc. then I will believe. Until then, it's just Tebow Hype. And of course he gonna do it again tonight because they're playing the kings ::)
-
i see mark jackson coming back to espn real soon.
who actually coaches on the team? it just seems like all mark jackson does is say corny movie type inspirational speeches that literally get me going ???

he beat the Fakers
i know they are an average team now but still, they used to be something

looney u must be a huge Lin fan since hes asian right? lol
-
looney u must be a huge Lin fan since hes asian right? lol
i was before he got the hype.
now i can't stop but hate all the fucking Facebook posts about him, fucking asians.
now everybody in my fb is a damn lin fan when they didn't give a damn about him when he was in harvard or when he was burning john wall during the rookie summer camps last year.
and this stupid whore topped it off with hers "please stop posting about Jeremy Lin. You guys never heard about him or even knew he existed when he was dropped from every team until now. So calm down. If I read another "Yellow Mamba" "All I do is Lin Lin Lin" or "Nothing is Lin-possible" I will punch the next Lin looking person I see. jk, or am I?"
bitch doesnt know shit about basketball, and the only thing she says when the game is on is "oooh hees fine", miss piggy look bitch. but id bet you guys would think she's fine, for some reason non asian dudes have the most horrible taste of asian women.
honestly i don't like women that say they "love" sports, its bullshit and they don't know what the fuck their talking about. it just pisses me off, they end off looking like dumb fucking sluts and it makes you just want to slap the shit out of them.
-
so ur 1 of them self hating asians?

no, i love bein korean, but the fact that nobody supported him when he was at college or last year, gets to me.
people are just so easily influenced

i only saw a couple of games, and i just laugh at his "wired" speeches , its ridiculous what he says. he talks nothing bout X's n O's and nothing about the game, he just says some weird inspirational bullshit.
but did u see that warriors game on espn? i think it was vs the clippers , lol he really did say "u guys suck, we know that" lol me and the homies were rolling for hours
i mean thats from only the couple games i saw, so don't take my opinion to the heart, but it was just so funny
-
Why would a random person "support" Lin while he was in college lmao? He's been ass with the Mavs, why would I go crazy about him back then? It's like, c'mon, now. Of course any player going to as far as signing with an NBA team is going to be "somewhat" good, hence them getting there and you sitting on your ass. Doesn't mean a nigga is getting love, until he plays lights out and rejuvenates a lost big market team like Lin is doing now.
-
Then he's going to get locked the fuck down by the Heat D and everybody will calm down ... sure he's playing great but he played one good D ... but with the worst PG rotation of the league and one good defender ( Rubio) and finished 8-24
-
People kill me waiting for him to fail. "He wont do it against the heat". Nobody is doing good against the Heat tho. I doubt he' ll be any different. Look past the stats and you realize he shored up the Knicks weakest spot and rejuvenated this whole roster without their best player. People think its his stats but the win streak is really why this shit is gettin so much attention. When they get Carmelo back we'll know more about them and when Baron comes back we'll know their potential.
-
I don't want him to fail , it's just things are getting way out of proportion ... I know it's today's world where superstars are created in one week but when you read headlines like : Report " Lin moving from couch to apartment" what can you do besides shaking your head ?
-
alot of players are still not giving him respect.
raptors did a good job on lin, made him have 3 bad quarters, but why they didint put a body on him on the last game winning shot is beyond me.
they basically gave him an open shot, retarded.
-
To the people that are bothered so much by the attention, just stop giving a fuck. I don't even watch ESPN because it's just a bunch of BS. They argue about shit without context. And that's really how most of the fans are today. I just tune it out, don't even get bothered by it. It makes me enjoy the sports much more without the constant dumb ass arguments.

so ur saying u hate Jeremy Lin or u hate all asian ppl?
-
i can careless about the hype,
i just don't like the fact that people didn't support him in the beginning or knew about him.
and now people are on him like white on rice (pun intended) like they give a shit about basketball.
theres dudes that never talked or really watched basketball, and now their trying to talk like they know the sport, its just a really big face palm.
i just end up turning around and talking to someone else, its ridiculous. i wonder how many asian ppl there are right now that are making themselves look like morons talking out of their ass about basketball n jeremy lin.

I don't want him to fail , it's just things are getting way out of proportion ... I know it's today's world where superstars are created in one week but when you read headlines like : Report " Lin moving from couch to apartment" what can you do besides shaking your head ?
Exactly. Good for him if he does well, but really? This hype is beyond ridiculous.
