Trust me, you don't want his fans invading this board too. Anytime he gets less than 30 minutes a game, they'll go on and on that the coach is an idiot, Lin is better than Lillard, etc.
You know? Thanks for that. Didn't want him beforehand, simply because he seems to be very erratic and inconsistent. High turnover rate. But you sold me on this El Presidente. MY head would boil having to deal with new thread after new thread from delusional, irrational fans thinking their player is... well anything but a role player who might spark once every few games. I don't think he is consistent enough to be a 6th man. He would end up much like Jamal Crawford looked when he was here. Inconsistent and out of place. Not our guy.
LakersGround had a similar thread. Everywhere he goes, "Linsanity nation" follows him around and basically goes on about he is basically the MVP. About how his playing time in garbage time shows why he should start, etc.
Aside from the obvious white hippy populous Portland does have a decent percentage of Asian decent. So does Seattle and Vancouver BC is basically an Asian city. Not saying right or wrong or joining the racial thing. Just sayin.
Lin has changed. See video. Imagine the possibilities if the Blazers sign Lin. CJ writes Lin’s videos, while Dame produces and provides background rap music. What a team they would make. Now can they play BB together??
Sorry Prez..don't buy this one...Lin is a decent pt guard and his fanbase is what it is. The guy did shut Kobe down when he was in NY and nothing about that sucks..he needs the right fit for his skills and Portland is probably a good one. Signing Lin in Portland would make us the largest fanbase on the planet....we only have mags..
He's not a decent PG. All he does is attack the basket, run into defenders and jack up shots out of the offense. He's good on a horrible team because it inflates his stats when he plays hero-ball. He's a turnover machine and makes horrible decisions.
It's the only explanation at this point. If they don't then I don't wanna hear Olshey say anything but "were fucking tanking" Oh and make tickets free.
