I love Jeremy Lin and the Brooklyn Nets- does anyone know of a team message board where I can read all about them endlessly every day?

was that directed at me Bonn? If so, just because I'd like to see how he'd fare. Nothing deeper than that.

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

I rather see prigs in the second unit with cope and jr. But i can definitely see fans clamoring for him to startvthe minute felton goes 4 for 15

Fair enough. They have two guys capable of playing PG in the backcourt. So I don't think they'll struggle getting the ball upcourt. Houston is clearly a young rebuilding team. I like the direction they're headed in but I don't think they'll win more than 35 games this year.

Just to clarify i was being sarcastic. I expect the knicks to get spanked tonight. Miami will key in on melo and novak like they did in the playoffs. Who knows which JR shows up tonight. Lebron, wade, bosh and allen are going off

Since this is a Lin thread I'll add it here; We could have used his scoring tonight. I just don't think Felton is the same kind of threat as Lin passes to the open man incredibly well. Who knows, maybe we do something miraculous tonight. If we do I have a feeling it will involve Copeland and Prigs. It is a given that Melo will need to go for 30 + and shoot a high percentage. If we do bad tonight and Felton/Kidd is at all connected, expect this thread to spread like a virus.

OK, I'll play nice this once regarding Lin this once

Lin is coming off of an injury. I don't think anyone wants to see him face Miami's pressure defense so soon.

We will shoot 35 threes. If we make 60% we might win

Honestly, we don't have to though that is the standard way we seem to go about things. We have both Camby and Chandler and I think we might see both of them out there at the same time. The way to beat Miami is probably inside (not sure why they didn't bring back Curry).

I could never see Camby and Tyson on the floor together against the Heat not with Rashard Lewis, Miller, Lebron and Battier rotating between the 3 and 4.

simple, just put the more mobile Chandler on Lewis. Miller, Lebron and the rest are not the center or power forwards responsibility.

TK I've been convinced to play nice regarding Lin I don't dislike him just all the threads. Keep me posted on how he does. I have to take a ton of work home with me and likely won't even get to see the Knicks though, I will DVR it.

Chandler would struggle getting beat off the dribble, although I doubt Lewis would dribble that much but who knows. Then you have a problem on offense with spacing its not like you can post either Camby or Chandler up.

Beat of the dribble by Rashard stiff ass Lewis? I don't see that happening at all. Dude lost almost all mobility with that injury and has pretty much turned a guy that hangs out at the three point line.

Also, I don't think spacing will be a problem if they both get in. Unlike Chandler, Camby has played power forward and has a decent jump shot (ugly as hell but decent). They shouldn't get in each others way. The PNR with Camby on the floor AND Chandler being very good at rolling to the basket for the lob will be good to see.

We have at least to try Chandler and Camby out there together. There have been a few articles on doing this and I tend to agree. Good points about how it might work. Going toe to toe with Miami is going to take a team with talent across the board. We no longer have Lin as a scorer and we will have to create match-up problems for Miami. The only place we can do so is at center(s). The bad thing is that if it works, they can always sign a big body (Curry is being cut by SA) at some time to negate some of the match-up problem.
