southsider2k5 Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Coach D'Antoni @Coach_D_Antoni Floyd Mayweather thinks Jeremy Lin is overrated, which is funny because Jeremy Lin has managed to be undefeated without ducking anybody. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has no problem watching anyone explode to the hole... be they on the Bulls or the other team. Toro! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyyle23 Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Dan McNeil posted something on his facebook about the Comcast awards and specifically why was Boozer getting one. I replied with a spray on hair joke and it just cascaded from there, it was pretty funny, everyone was joking about how bad his hair looked in Boston.

Jenksismyhero Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 I'm excited for the inevitable meltdown when Melo gets back. I don't see how these guys play well together. Someone's going to have to give up the shots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THere's no plausible reason why that should be a problem. I disagree. Melo succeeds because he dominates the ball. D'Antoni's offense succeeds when the PG dominates the ball. Something will have to give here, and my guess it will not be Melo. There will be nights where the offense looks great and there will be nights where they just stagnate, I have no doubt. Hot and cold, just like before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rowand44 Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Lin is at the Bradley Center March 9th.

Jenksismyhero Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Feb 15, 2012 -> 10:26 AM) I believe Carmelo Anthony is going to thrive working with Jeremy Lin. Things Melo is terrible at: (1) moving without the ball, (2) setting screens/getting others involved in the offense, (3) playing defense. If Lin dominates the PG spot, as he should, then Melo becomes the off-guard that has to create his shot from movement. Good luck. And what happens at the end of the game? Is Lin forgotten about? Obviously he will be, and the ball will be in Melo's hands. But will Knick fans be content with that when you've gotten nothing but W's from Lin taking that lead role, but .500 ball with Melo taking that lead role? This is similar to the Wade/Lebron can't coexist argument. The difference though is that both Wade and Lebron play defense and run well without the ball. They both dominate games because they can create offense without having the ball in their hands. It'll be interesting to see if D'Antoni can create a new system to utilize all of the talent he's got. If he sticks with his current system, Melo becomes seconday, and that's a huge waste of talent and money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DukeNukeEm Posted February 15, 2012 Author Share Posted February 15, 2012 No matter what team he's on or what system he's in it pretty evident now that Carmelo Anthony is always a huge waste of talent and money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swingandalongonetoleft Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 I wonder if the people who purchased a Knicks Lin jersey will be able to exchange them for the Erie Bay Hawks jersey he'll be rocking in 3-4 weeks. Or maybe give them a coupon for buy one get one 1/2 price small popcorn at Madison Square Garden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swingandalongonetoleft Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 I'll buy a Lin jersey if he keeps doing what he's doing for the rest of the season. I just think that if people want a heart warming basketball underdog story, they should go watch air bud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quin Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 (edited) I just want to see Lin face a real challenge when he isn't confident in himself. Right now he's balling by oozing confidence and facing crappy teams. The people he beat for most points in starts all started as rookies and faced better competition most likely (there are 3-4 teams that could qualify for "worst ever" in the Bobcats, Wizards, Nets, and Raptors). He's had a year to work with NBA staff and study players and the league has both great (Bulls, Heat, 76ers) and terrible basketball right now due to the lockout. What Lin is doing is a amazing, but he's not better than Shaq/AI/MJ as that stupid graphic likes to imply. Once he plays the Heat, Bulls, or 76ers he'll come back to Earth. Also, that stat is misleading because it's "since the ABA/NBA merger." Wilts first 5: 43 points 36 points 41 points 30 points 32 points Shaq had better first 5 games, just not points: 12pts, 18 reb, 3 blocks 22 points, 15 reb, 4 blocks 35 points, 13 reb, 3 blocks 31 points, 21 reb, 4 blocks 29 points, 15 reb, 3 blocks Then the next 2 games... 29 pts, 19 reb, 3 blocks 29 pts, 16 reb, 3 blocks Edited February 15, 2012 by Quinarvy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
