Because some folks want to divide this board into "lovers" and "haters".

Exactly. Lin fans are mad because they feel melo pushed him out. And Melo fans are mad because they feel their guy gets too much blame and not enough respect

I for one is neutral towards Melo. My hate is directed towards Dolan.

Me too. I dont hate Melo at all but i do feel he needs to prove himself. He has started out on the right foot by coming in camp in great shape

We're using one preseason game as evidence of something?

Now the joy of my world is in Zion How beautiful if nothing more Than to wait at Zion's door I've never been in love like this before Now let me pray to keep you from The perils that will surely come

That was a nice no look pass in the first one. Lin too often telegraphed his passes last season and it was a big reason why he was turning the ball over so much. If he can make more plays like that this year he should have a good season.


make no mistake, Lin was the best passing point guard we've had since Rod Strickland. He made his teammates better.

Lin set some records to be sure, including most turnovers in that stretch since before the NBA/ABA merger. You might want to ignore that part, but I don't.

The touchdown pass to Asik definitely gave me flashbacks of Lin connecting with Melo on those.

Very true but he did save our season so that outweighs it a little lol

ANOTHER LIN threat...this won't end well
the fact that you can't even have an unrelated thread without some tool here bringing him up make me think that rational minds are few and far between. Bunch of emotionally weak, angst riddled people. I mean, how many times can you argue the same shyt

It's sad to think that this is gonna be the tone for the season
"We are playing a game. We are playing at not playing a game..."

Do you also want to ignore that part where the TOs he commits are the acceptable ones. His TOs are off him trying to get his team in the right spots and setting them up. No lazy passes. No ill-advised passes. I think Hubie made this remark in one of the telecasts and same with JVG.

Chris Paul averaged 2.45 TOs for his career and his worst year is 2.96
Deron William averaged 3.11 TOs for his career and his worst year is 3.98 and since 07/08 he has been around 3.5.
Jeremy Lin averaged 2.25 for his career and averaged 3.6 last year.

He is very comparable to ball dominant PGs.

Felton averaged 2.64 TOs for his career and his worst year was 3.26 in his first stint with the Knicks.

All i know is Russell Westbrook scored like 19 pts in like 16 minutes of action. Some things never change with Lin I guess. Continually getting roasted against superior comp like he did against Calderon, Vasquez, Rubio, Deron the 2nd game, Rondo, Rose etc.

Good riddance!

Don't understand how much hate Lin gets around her. He went from buried in the bench to saving or season from utter embarrassment when BOTH our Mega Super Stars were out with injuries. Wow!I mean, who gives a crap if he's not ready for preseason! Geeez!!!

We will never agree on that point. I don't give any player a pass. Ive criticized everyone on this team to some degree. Some more than others. Ive also complemented every player on this team as well, even TD. I cant ignore something that a player is doing that I believe is wrong just because it might hurt someone's feelings. Not necessarily yours but some posters get wired up about any flaw being pointed out in "their" players game. I believe this is the most knowledgeable bunch of fans on the web. If the criticism isnt 100 percent lopsided towards one extreme they should be able to handle it.

Well first of all you're wrong because I NEVER gave him a pass. I am the most critical when it coes to lin. He needs to cut down on his turnovers and also shoot better from the outside. I think you misinterpreted me admiring his skills BUT also being critical of his weaknesses

Hey Let's Discuss Jeremy Lin's not being up to his game in Houston. He claims lingering injury??
