anyone know where to find highlights of the recent Mavericks game where Lin apparently really "came out" in terms of steadying the team as a point guard?
The front office mishandled Lin's rookie year. When it was apparent in early Dec that Lin was only going to get garbage time minutes, they should have sent him to D-League and kept him there until the Warriors were out of playoff contention, which was around end of Feb. Then they should have recalled him and given him at least 10-15 min per game.
If they had done that, Lin would probably have been playing like this since March. Here are Lin's Per 40 stats in the 6 games (85 mins) since his last recall. (Yes, it's a very small sample size, but it shows what he's capable of.)
Jeremy Lin’s popularity and fame has now probably eclipsed any issues related to his name. But what about the millions of ordinary Asian-Americans who have to deal with their cultural confusions on a day-to-day basis? http://watcheshop.org.uk

ReplyDeleteNoooooooo, they're bringing back Larry Riley through 2013! Time to jump off this sinking ship. I expect them to announce the signing of Keith Smart soon too.

50% fg (11/22), 33% 3pt (1/3), 90% ft (9/10), 15.0 pts, 6.1 reb, 8.0 ast, 3.3 stl, 1.9 to, 4.3 A/TO.
Thanks for the effort to put together this video highlights of Lin this season. Much appreciated!
ReplyDeleteSo any word on whether Lin's contract was picked up? Or will be actually be a free agent?
ReplyDeleteI wish PS3 NBA2K12 will have Jeremy's real face instead of that ugly generic one on 2K11.
