What will his numbers look like?
Hard to say. I do think he will learn a lot playing alongside Kobe. Also, Nash is coming back.
There was a thread for Moz and what could be
I thought why not Lin since he will start on a big stage
Not sure I'd put the Lakers as a playoff team
I see them in a similar position as us, out West
Can Kobe turn back the clock
Can Lin solidify himself as a legit Top 15 PG
It is hard to say. Byron Scott is his coach. I think Lin grows as a player. It would have been nice if NY could have picked him up with that 1st rounder Houston threw in.
I guess his numbers depend on if Kobe is healthy. If Lin is given the keys I think he will blossom like Dragic did.
Lin will help get Kobe his 6th ring.
Lakers > Cavs in 7
Lakers worked out bobby brown and toney Douglas among others including Michael Beasley. Douglas and brown have opt outs on contracts in china if they get an nba offer. I would love to see bobby brown in the nba.

Solidify top 15? Shouldn't he work on getting better than Patrick Beverly first?
Gotta keep your head up Lin

He's not a better defender than Beverly, but he's a better point guard. You should check out the Rockets boards, McHale is roundly criticized for starting Beverly over Lin by most people. It was a headscratcher for most Rockets fans.

Lin has a big following.
But bringing Lin off the bench was a logical move. Harden is ball dominant guard, Beverly is a defensive first PG who can hit the 3. It makes sense for Beverly to start with Harden and Howard and for Lin to be offense off the bench and given more freedom to create while Harden took a breather.

ClutchFans? There is a split but I disagree that it is most fans. Far from it in my opinion.

But why use logic?
Yes, enlighten us more logically with how Lin was also being outplayed by Toney Douglas at one point. That evil HOF player McHale, what does he know? NBA rankings of PG's, what good are they? I'd rather base my deductions on Clutchfans!

No more incredulous than Calderon being "ELITE"

Most Rocket fans = 6 online members on random website.
Lin is going to have a career year on a crappy team and this forum will then be flooded with whiny fanboys.
Can't wait

This is your brain.
This is your brain on Melohate.
A brain is a terrible thing to waste.
