this is going to be an interesting matchup

i think rubio will find way to frustrate lin, but the knicks will come out on top…

ok, i was jus watching the highlights from the lakers game...

the lakers D that night was jsut fuckin pitiful. They were playing him soooooo soft and fisher was jsut utter trash. Im not aking anything away from lin b.c I think he is a legit NBA starter, but not an all star. Teams need to stop underestimating this kid and start playing tougher defense and start deploying double teams on him.

yeah if you double him he's not that good. lakers couldnt figure it out

When is Lin going to play against a defense?

Two bad plays by lin in a row there.

Should have held it for one shot. Results in a dumb foul by Shumpert. Love hits both free throws, then he races down the court misses the layup and Rubio gets a layup on the other end. Knicks down 8 as a result.

"It was very impressive. Wouldn't you say, Scal?" Lucas said.

lin commits too many stupid TOs

against good teams, lin wont be as effective like the previous games (and yes, the lakers are not a good team).

he's got stuff to learn for sure

yeah he's got growing to do and he isn't an all-star PG at this point, though he can burn crappy teams

but who gives a crap, he’s awesome.
