Jeremy Lin

[Tidus]

The only reason I don't want to do anything with the second pic is cuz it says "New York City" and I don't live there. Not going to rep where I don't live haha

lol exactly how I feel. I dont like to hustle and I dont love NY enough to represent lol

[Ah ka-map map]

@Sunnie-Yeah little one, what both of my homies just said. Don't rep other states. Effin hate east coast! is all about the west coast! I wonder if they have the blue one in my size

[Ivan]

Hey, hey, hey! Don't knock the east coast!!! You guys can think of it as reppin' the team instead haha

[J. Lin]

Looks like they may replace J. Lin with Baron Davis as a starter which might be a blessing in disguise. In other news J. Lin only makes $762,195? That's pocket change, mang.

Coming up....

Lin vs Rondo

[Halcyon]

Rondo went out of his mind: 18 pts 20 assists and 17 rebounds 1 steal 1 block 4 turnovers
Lin 14 pts 5 assists 4 rebounds 1 steal 6 turnovers

Still, not bad except Lin made some terrible shooting decision at the end in OT. Knicks have got to stop winning and losing every other games. They're just not going to get anything done if they don't go on a winning streak.


MIAMI vs LAKERS!!!!!

[Tidus]

one thing I dont like about his game is his frailty when taking it to the hole and I notice this happening a lot whenever he doesnt plan his route out. He would rush in, seems like someone is tripping him, and lose control of the ball and slip. it happens twice 2day. He also need to work on his passing speed, its very slow. if he can improve on that with his exceptional court vision, he will be at an allstar level.

[LaoGuy]

He struggles with with penetrating inside, still having turn over issues. He played better than what his stats tells you. He did not have a clear shots on perimeter. He came through when he needs too but a bit too late. Getting into foul problem does not help him either, and he's not getting enough minutes to truly be himself.

MIAMI vs LAKERS!!!!!

Man, Rondo was ridiculous!!!! Most centers in the NBA can't even get 17 rebounds! Now, that's sayin something! Ain't going to hate, but he totally outplayed Lin. yes, there are justifications for both players' outcomes, but the end result showed Rondo > Lin.

I'll tell ya, this last game should be a learning expereicne for Jeremy. The dude needs to work on his footwork, balance, and flexibility in the off-season. Then, when next year comes, he'll be back with a vengeance!

[k82562131]

i'm sorry to say it, everyone. it's been a nice ride. i'm sure it'll come again. he's got potential to make big things, no one can deny it. but for now, linsanity is over.

Lin scored 20pts grabbed 3 steals made 4 assists 3 rebounds and committed only one turnover against Spurs. Do you blame Lin because Knicks are losing? Now this would have looked nice if Knicks won but they didn't

He's getting paid 800K while Melo & Amare are paid millions and they're ineffective. Yes the media hoopla around Linsanity is over (thank God) but Lin himself isn't over.

I don't care about Linsanity anyway, I only care about Jeremy Lin and he's still putting up numbers and contributing.

Lin & 2nd unit are all about hearts and determination. You throw Amare and Melo into the mix and it screws everything up.

nah, not even to the slightest point i blame jeremy for what has happened. i only state the fact that "linsanity" is over.

for the non-basketball fans, they gotta understand that jeremy still puts up starting PG stats. this means it would be dumb to put him on the bench or even think about it.

when i speak of "linsanity" i'm referring to the times when he took over the team as the sole savior. it was during the time when he scored over 25 per night, making crazy ass shots, getting the crowd all hyped up, and pretty much controlling the game emotionally and physically on the court. now it's different. now that melo is invovled, i personally think it has disrupted the system chemistry. on the same breath, i commend melo on trying to play with lin's system, but that's not enough. lin only thrives on ball distribution over isos.

tonight against the spurs, melo was stale. he had no damn defense. people drove on his ass and he did nothing defensively. a bucket could change the game and i think he could be the culprit of the knicks problems. just saying.

[Tidus]

As much as Id like to believe otherwise, Melo cannot and will not play 2nd fiddle to an unknown player. He often waits for the ball only to go iso afterward leaving out everyone of his teammates. Ever since he came back Lin has retracted his game quite a bit, almost hesitant on every play making him ineffective.

Imagine if Jeremy Lin was a Buddhist and cited Buddhist scriptures in all his post game and locker room interviews, how much more hate would he have to endure.?

People insult his manhood, call him chink and all kinds of racial slurs even as a devout, loyal Christian. I couldn't imagine going in front of 50,000 fans, speaking in front of a mic and saying, "I'd like to thank Buddha, for keeping me strong and confident through these tough times".

Everybody's jaw would just drop. People would start getting defensive and he'd probably go through a lot more hell than he does right now. That's for sure.

Steve Jobs was a Buddhist. Did anyone gave him hell for it?

[christmasSOCKSinJuly]

Steve Jobs was a Buddhist but how many people actually knew he was?

I didn't know until you told me. The guy never promoted Buddhism hardly ever and that's the difference between Lin and Jobs.

Had Steve Jobs thanked Buddha for his innovations and creativity I'm sure he wouldn't be embraced with such open arms. For the most part, his religious beliefs were mostly private and kept to himself.

Pay attention next time. You're prejudice against Christianity. Here is an Asian guy who loves God. Of course you're going to notice it because it sticks out like a sore thumb to you.

The same way white sticks out like a sore thumb when they become Buddhist monks. You have to learn to respect people, CSJ. Do you ever read any of the shit you write on here and think "Damn, I sound like a fucking moron"?

Maybe you don't but every other KLers reads it and they all think you're a moron.

[christmasSOCKSinJuly]

I can care less what you think of me or what anyone on KL thinks of me for that matter. I'm not here to win over your validation or pick up on a hot date. You need to ease up on those medication pills brotherman, it's impairing your judgment.

[christmasSOCKSinJuly]

lol. That's funny because the time I spend on here is when I'm mostly at work. I'm making money while I'm online. How is that not productive?

The links and articles I post on here is meant to get a reaction from people on KL. It's a way for me to get a unique perspective on what other Cambodians opinions are about a certain topic. No where else on the internet is there a pool of Cambodians I could collect data from like there is on this site.

What is this really about?

Are you mad because I'm taking your shine? Is it because I'm getting more attention than you are and consistently get more views on my blogs than you do?

To me it seems like the source of your resentment, stems from jealousy. You're mad because, as the street lingo goes, "I got more swag than you".

[christmasSOCKSinJuly]

Anyway, this isn't' about me, this is about Jeremy Lin. Stop hijacking this thread and turning the attention to me. If you want, go make another thread and talk about me but don't take away JLIN's shine and make this the CSIJ thread.

That's terrible online etiquette on your part and worse of all, disrespectful to Jeremy Lin.

[kose]

Jeremy Lin is pretty decent actually, I think he'll have a long career in the NBA, but I just don't see him being anywhere elite. When Linsanity blew up, he wasn't in any of the team's scouting report; now that he is, he's prone to having bad nights and some turn overs. The Knicks were also playing sub par teams at that point too, so its not likely he'll get the same numbers come playoff time - if the Knicks even make it to the playoff.

Point God ... I'll just leave this here

[J. Lin]

Ever since he came back Lin has retracted his game quite a bit, almost hesitant on every play making him ineffective.

A way to test this theory is wait for the next time Melo goes out on injury and see how J. Lin carry the team. If he does good, then the obvious would be that Melo is the cause of Lin's lack in playing his best.

[k82562131]

I think the problem lies within Melo's defensive game. He can't go 1v1 defensively against another NBA player if his life depended on it.

[ILoveOysters]

Jeremy Lin has cooled off. He had his 15 mins.

[Halcyon]

Jeremy Lin has cooled off. He had his 15 mins.

15 Minute of fame only works on no-talents hack in entertainment. Mostly, youtube stars, reality stars...etc.

15 minute of fame doesn't apply to Jeremy Lin. He busted his ass since high school, at a university and made it to the NBA all without going through the conventional route.

He's only struggling against the very best team but that was to be expected. Nobody was expecting Lin to be Steve Nash all of a sudden.

Better defensive team stops players, that is what they do. Even the best player can be stopped/slowed by a good defensive team. We'll see what happen when Knicks play Miami again. We'll see if Knicks figured it out by then.
