Gotta give credit to Rubio.
Back to back, away game in minnesota after his emotional and physical draining performance against the Lakers. Was pretty obvious that lin was gonna be tired. It showed in the second half. His first half was superb again. Give this guy some rest and he's gonna perform like a baws again.

When Stoudimare comes back, the pick and roll will be even more deadly.
edit: Im not sure how things will go when Carmelo comes back, since hes a ball hogger. Maybe he will adapt and let Jeremy hold the ball.

not to mention it's incredibly tough to play in minnesota cause you keep fighting the urge to fall asleep. Really, going from 38 points battlin' the lakers to facing the wolves in minny it's like a huge sugar crash.

Obv not start him but def play him over bill walker any day, walker is worthless. Right now no one else can knock down 3s reliably. Hell no one can even shoot except when Lin gets hot.

i'm really curious about this, seems like teams are defending the pnr against lin and chandler pretty damn well. barely seen any in the last 2 games.

watch D-rose killed wolf and you 'll know how different between good pg and great pg ^^
go go Bulls
|
Rose can be as great a pg as Lin.
stop the hatin'.
|
But you have to remember how much more experience Derrick has compared to Lin, comparing a veteran all-star to a bench player that started a week ago...

Rubio is very quick on his feet and with his hands and the Lakers had a huge frontline which made it hard for Lin to see the court and hit chandler. Lin will have to adjust in the future. Against the average NBA-team chandler/amare pick and roll should be pretty good.

Are you guys really comparing Jeremy Lin to Derrick Rose? Time for me to find similarities between Mike Bibby and Magic Johnson, be right back..
And Gerald Wallace, please get another assist or block, or make sure you get it to a third OT, my fantasy team really needs it! :D

my point is Lin is good but plz not over-hype him like most of you do -"- so i drop a bom that what a great pg should look like CP3 D-rose Tony-Parker and no no no not Westbrook <--- another Melo version

Wasn't talking about you - because I agree with what you're saying! Sure, Lin is doing really well which is loads of fun to watch, but he is nowhere near the level of CP3 or Derrick Rose

I present the awesomeness of Timmy, and KG (I guess).
But in the 2000’s, Jordan’s revolution, at least temporarily, was rolled back. Shaq and Duncan won eight of nine titles from 1999-2007; the only other championship team in that period featured a four-time Defensive Player of the Year (Ben Wallace) at center and another 6’11+ player (Rasheed Wallace) with as much pure talent as Garnett and Duncan. Garnett, when finally given a chance to play with other All-Stars in Boston, won a title in 2008, while the Los Angeles Lakers and the Dallas Mavericks, two teams who played multiple 7’0 on their frontline, have won the last three championships.
...
It’s hard to even contemplate how dominant a Shaq/Duncan or Shaq/KG front-line would have been.
If you asked all 30 NBA GM’s to pick one player they would want to build their franchise around from 1999-2011, Duncan and Garnett would go #1 and #2. And if you put every player in the history of the NBA into one draft pool, there would only be a small handful of names called before two of the most versatile seven-footers of all-time came off the board.

Does that last shot from Kobe count as a missed shot or an assist as it didn't hit the rim prior to Bynum's tip?

Probably an assist at least it should anyway.

Watching the 2nd half of Knicks vs Timberwolves, when Lin goes ice cold, that's when they need Melo time~~~. Stop hating on Melo, he has his uses.
|
putting in Goudeluck as the 2 guard when Kobe goes out is something I am excited about somewhat Should make it a little more natural on the guy when he is in the game.
Didn't know game was this early 
edit: Kobe, dagger...5 second count..game over..
