Lin has played better than Kemba in both games though.

Stats, eyes, what ever you want to use, he's league average PG. It's not his fault the lakers needed him to start and run the stupid frankestien Princeton offence.

Did you watch both games?
I can tell you're stat watching when you say things like "league average". Lakers pretty much scrapped the princeton 1/3 thru the season and ran a crap load of pick and roll.

do you know what replacement level player means?
Replacement level player is a guy who would be available on waivers in the middle of the season.
Dwight Bykes is a replacement level player.

IMO the biggest reason why people hate on Lin is because he's Asian, similar to why people hated on Yao.

When has having two ball dominant guards who don't play defense a good thing?

But he isn't a starter so why would he even be in the game for crunch time?

Julius Randle is going to have to drastically improve his jumpshot if he's going to be a starter in the league. That "let me dribble 4 or 5 times and ram into you" game isn't going to work on this level.

Child please. Yao was beloved. Lin is hated by the teams he's played for because he sucks.

There is some truth to this
Not that he's Asian but because he is overhyped by Asians

Julius Randle in a nutshell:
Quick off the dribble
Solid handle for a PF
Good vision
Strong
Only goes left. Absolutely no right hand
Can't shoot
Can't finish over length
Can't defend.
But he's only 20, and has natural talent. He will improve, but his ceiling isn't nearly as high as some think.

Chill. MJ at 40 was 22ppg on 42%. Bean at 37 can only dream of numbers like that.
