The Jeremy Lin Problem
« on: February 17, 2012, 03:21:02 AM »
Excellent article in the NYtimes...and it's not what you think it's about. Posting this on the G&O would take away from article at hand, and focus on nonsense.

Thanks for posting it here.

I think the article is ridiculous.   I see no reason why you can't practice "redemption and self-abnegation" in life, but still try to win basketball games.

Can someone who believes in God not play monopoly, Halo, etc either?  Where do you draw the line?

i think carmelo has disrupeted the offence, with lin he had his way to create, now carmelo takes over and the losing records mount.

With Amare, chadler and amare they shoud be great, but its a bad mix, they cannot utilise one another way.

Not that lin is a star but he is a winner, melo is just a stat stuffer,
