He already looks way better -- pace-wise. Haha, yeah, he blew a bunny and he and Smart both laughed. Just nerves, I guess. He also had a steal and another poke-away that led to a steal (don't know if it was officially credited to him).
He's doing a good job with the minutes he's getting. He didn't get beat by Blake or Fisher. He worked the pick and roll to get to ball to an open shooter. He created shots for others, even when he had wide open looks.
Some things he could have done better. Go after rebounds more aggressively. Double the post player so they give up the dribble. A lot of times even a token swipe at the ball will make them give it up.
Ankle sprains heal very fast. Curry might be out of action tomorrow. I'm guessing the coach will start Monta Ellis and Charlie Bell in the backcourt. Lin will see heavy minutes as a backup ... I hope. And maybe he will gain some confidence having played the Lakers firsthand and knowing what to expect.
Great to see Jeremy play against the Lakers...one of the teams that made him an offer. He held his own. Wait until Asian Heritage Night...hope they give him some real minutes.
Yeah! Jeremy rocked. a bit much on the right-handed dribbles but still dope. cut right through everyone. Would have been cool to see how he would have handled Kobe.
Not bad... 4 assists, 0 turnovers so far. But he did blow a wide open layup. lol

ReplyDeletemissed wide open layup... ~_~
ReplyDeleteHe passed up two open jumpers, but that makes sense considering his jumper is a work in progress, and he made the extra pass to an open man.
ReplyDeleteJeremy lin!!!!!!!!! for 2! and he makes it and bakes it!

ReplyDeleteand rly jeremy would spell his own name wrong lol "Jermey Lin said..."
ReplyDeleteHope Curry's ankle is alright. On the other hand, does this mean that Lin might get more playing time?

Never leave shooters open. Attack the paint.

I think we should cut Jeremy some slack. No D-league. He's NBA ready.
