Linsanity

Recommended Posts

It looks like the NBA has a rising new star. I only wish Michael Jordan could have sign him, the Bobcats need more publicity, not to mention I believe Jeremy Lin will be a great player. Some are comparing Linsanity to Tebowmania.:D This has been a great year for sports.

Except I only expect Linsanity to have a 1 week run... Don't know I would call him a rising star... You have to be way more consistent over a much longer period than 3 games vs sub par talent... plus the reason he got cut was his lack of defense. He also needs to dominate the ball so when Melo and Amare comes back he will regress statistically. He reminds me move of like a Dragic... a Pg who can come off the bench and give you some good energy while your starters are down.

I remember my freshman year when Lin and his Harvard team came up to Boone and lost by 22 in a game where he was a complete non-factor. Needless to say, I don't buy the hype, and I believe the only reason he is being hyped right now is because he is playing in New York, and we all know how biased ESPN is towards their coverage of major market teams, no matter how good or bad they are.

Man, imagine the Knicks once they get all their guys back. A starting line-up with Stoudemire, Anthony, Lin, and Chandler!?! One more player, and they will have the NBA's first fab five.:D (Haha, lets see if they can overcome the Heat to be the best team in the east)

    • This is a wild statement it’s to late to save his season with six games left? That mountain of bad film as a rookie with trash coaching a weak azz line and dismal WRs. Guys that can’t catch on with other teams or guys traded to teams that are subpar at best. We put Bryce in a terrible situation to start his career does that matter to you or you feel he should’ve, as a rookie elevate this dumpster fire. If you’re giving him a fair assessment judge him off the last four games a good o-line decent WRs still not comparable to any other young QB WR room Hou (tank/nico..) Tua (Hill/Waddle) Caleb (Moore/Rome/Allen) let’s see what he can do with a decent structure around him for the next few weeks then let’s revisit how we’re going to grade or assess his performances.
    • As a bit of counterpoint, if he wanted to continue his professional career then handling it like a mature adult was the only option. Dude had been playing like absolute ass and needed to own it. It's great that he did but it's not like he didn't have a large amount of self interest in doing so. Not picking on Bryce specifically here, as this applies to any player or even anyone struggling early in their career. And he still has a long way to go, but signs are positive.
    • I agree he could still develop, but I think that could still be developed in practice. Just after a scary injury like that, I'm nervous to see him get reps in a live game situation when the best possible outcome is nothing more than worsening our draft selection. That said, I'm 100% not a doctor, so if he's clear to play, he wants to play, and there's no potential of aggravating this injury (which by all accounts it doesn't seem that is the case for this type of injury) then go for it, I guess.   But you hit the nail on the head. This draft class is really impressive. I can't remember the last time I was so impressed with a rookie that I'd actually prefer shutting him down. His game is so apparent that he doesn't need to prove anything at this point. Can't remember the last time that happened!
