Official Jeremy Lin Thread.

Say what you want about turnovers but ask yourself this--did he win? Did he take a team that was 7-15 and bring them to 13-15? Did he just hit a gamewinner? Has Melo been out this whole time, and has Amare been out every game except for today's? Is he averaging 28.5 points, 8.5 assists, and 1.8 steals on 50.4% FG over the last six games, all of which were wins? Is it only his second year in the league? I say respect the man. Black, white, asian, martian--if anybody does those things, you respect him.

To the people talking about Lin's turnovers:

AVERAGE TEAM TOTAL TURNOVERS THIS SEASON BEFORE LIN: 15.913

AVERAGE TEAM TOTAL TURNOVERS THIS SEASON AFTER LIN: 14.66

Come on man..  8TOs is inexcusable regardless of how much he handles the ball or not..  You know that argument is nonsense.. The point guard isn't supposed to just recycle other people's turnovers as his.. He's supposed to be limiting turnovers.. But if my PG may have just as many TOs as Assists and he's getting 7+ Assists that is a problem.  Lin will be the first to tell you that.

But the fact is that he has limited turnovers. If we are talking about his own statline, it'll improve once Melo comes into the roster and he controls the ball less often. I'm not saying he shouldn't get better, I'm just offering some facts to weigh in.

I been rooting for Lin, but at the same time I haven't jumped on the bandwagon because its only been a couple of games, but now im really wondering because this guy just keeps going. I really want to know how good Lin is, is this some hot streak, is he simply this nice or what. Like how many times have you seen someone come out like this, its hard to imagine but he doing it.
