Predict Lin's Numbers vs The Heat

[chairman]

What will Lin's stats look like Tommorow. Points Assists Rebound TO

[AMISTILLILL]

15 points, 7 assists, 2 rebounds, 1 steal, 6 turnovers.

[pauk]

Lots of turnovers... i can tell you that :lol
Heat defense will be just to overwhelming for him (or any Knick)... and Heat offense will be just to overwhelming for Knicks... they will be crushed

[ThatsGame]

15 turnovers

[Jotaro Durant]

14 points 3 rebounds 10 assists 6 turnovers

[Collie]

37 points, 8 rebounds, 16 assists, 6 TO

Winning dunk over Lebron, Wade and Bosh.

13 pts ... 10 assists.... 3 rebounds.... 3 steals.... 1 block... 10 turnovers

[no pun intended]

35 newspaper covers / 15 ish threads / 12 new lin puns
I was actually thinking 37 newspaper covers/ 18 ish threads/ 7 new lin puns

[Sarcastic]

No matter the score, I predict that ISH will crash.

[FKAri]

No clue. I've been way off each time. I (and probably no one else) predicted he'd drop 38 on the Lakers or 28 and 14 on the Mavs. Can he really again? I dunno. Should be fun to watch.

[Digital Lee]

17 pts 9 dimes

[Beebo]

I was actually thinking 37 newspaper covers/ 18 ish threads/ 7 new lin puns

Seems realistic.

Also add "crashing ISH" for the 3rd time.

[Collie]

The Lin puns seems to be dropping from 10.4 a game to around 6.1. Probably people running out of ideas. Threads and headlines should remain consistent though.

[Yanch856]

:lol I suspect Lin may get his first triple dub tonight.

But his turn overs are red herrings for the Knicks. IMO they're necessary evils.

[FKAri]

Nah. He's gonna get a double triple.

[Clutch]

21 points,4 rebounds,11 assists and 6 turnovers.

[Pointguard]

Lin will bring the Heat and cause a Linami (sunami) on Miami.

10 points 8 assist 5 rebounds 8 TO.
He's never seen a team as fast as Miami and this will be a learning experience. He going into the jaws of guys hearing MVP talk and who would take pride in stopping him. No biggie. This will make him better.

Let's say they don't go all out in trying to stop him.
16 points 10 assist 4 rebounds 6 TO

[ballashotcalla]

Most of his TO come in the paint or on fast break. With Lin's gameplay, high TO is a semi-good sign. It means he's aggressive.

26 pts, 11 assists, 6 turnovers.

He'll play 42+ minutes because he'll be resting on defense. Lin has had great games against teams with weak PG. The double team off picks is a non-issue. I don't think he's had a TO in this situation.

[All Net]

Knicks are screwed if Lin has alot of turnovers against this team...if he keeps them low Knicks have a good shot.

[NYballin]

18pts 4 rebounds 8 assist 4 turnovers

[arifgokcen]

Miami is the best team at limiting specific players production in the game dont forget knicks run a lot of screens for lin miami ability to switch players gives them a significant advantage.Dont forget miami is the best team at forcing turnovers and lin right now is a turnover machine.Only rose were able to put a good performance 34 points on fg%39.
So dont get your hopes up for this one.I predict an easy heat win with
lin 15points 8 assists 5+turnovers

[DMV2]

The Dragon will show LeBron who's the new king in town.

23 pts / 10 reb / 16 ast .........and 7 turnovers

[comerb]

If Lin turns it over 6+ times against Miami the Knicks are going to be hard pressed to even keep it competitive. But honestly, I think the real key to the game is how Novak plays. If he continues to light it up from behind the arc, the Knicks have a chance.

[inclinerator]

15 points 22 assist 6 turnovers

[The Ownage]

40 points, 8 assists or 27 points 13 assists along with 7 turnovers and a win.

I'm serious.

[Rnbizzle]

11/6 with 7 TO's

[Dwade305]

9pts-7asst-6 TO

[TheMan]

The Knicks need Lin to push the ball foward and attack the rim whenever they try to trap him. have a player stay close when the trap comes as an outlet.

I won't predict but should be a fun game to watch.

[InfiniteBaskets]

I won't predict but should be a fun game to watch.

That's their only option. You know when Chalmers and Joel/Bosh trap Lin, Wade and James are just going to be waiting in the corners ready to pounce on the fastbreak. Lin's best option is to dump it off to Chandler/Amare. But I seriously doubt Chandler/Amare will be able to make a smart extra pass even if they are technically in a 2 on 1 situation in the paint.

[Scholar]

I think Lin will end tonight with the following:

17 points
3 rebounds
9 assists
1 steal
0 blocks
5 turnovers
3 fouls

[Joshumitsu]

22 pts/12 assists/7 turnovers

[Sarcastic]

That's the price his rookie card is being sold for on ebay.

Heat will be the Lin Killer

[ThatsGame]

I'm surprised at how many are predicting only 6 turnovers. He has had more against crappy teams. The Heat are designed to make scrubs turn the ball over and score on it.

If by scrubs, you mean mario chalmers.

That was without Melo. He's been in control of the game since Melo's return. Still has 4-5 turnovers though but his game isn't as sloppy as it was when Melo was out.

[ThatsGame]

In what way is Mario a scrub? Have you seen his percentages? Or are you just a hater?

Yea Big 3 making him look competent right now, but if you think Lin's a scrub, then Chalmers should be shipped to the bench of D-league.

Why don't you go to basketball reference and compare them, including FGA's. Then come back. The Big 3 doesn't make Chalmers make his shots.

Get this trolling out of here.

You can't possibly be implying Chalmers > Lin? :roll: Wow there are still species like yourself out there, amazing.

edit: BTW Big 3 does help Chalmers make his shot, if you don't see how, then you are an idiot.

[IamRAMBO24]

Scenario 1:

Lebron, Battier, and Wade will play the passing game hard.

Lin will look to attack. If you guys haven't notice, he is a lot for more careful with his turnovers in the last few games, so I doubt he's going to pass if he starts racking them up.

I predict Lin will come out passing to set Amare or Melo on fire. If he can't get them going and the Heat is playing the passing lane, he's going to take it to the rim hard once he starts racking up 2-3 turnovers.

I would be really surprise if he forces another 9 turnover game (possible, but surprising).

25-30 pts, 5 rebounds, 5 assists, 1 steals, 3 turnovers

Conclusion: Knicks lose.

Scenario 2:


The archilles heel of the Heat is the pick and roll (B Jenning, with a Bogut rolling to the basket, is the only player that has beat them both at home and away this season), so if Lin gets it going with Chandler, with a few feeds to Amare and Melo, expect a low scoring, high assist, high turnover game.

10-15 pts, 6-8 rebounds, 10-12 assists, 3-5 steals, 7+ turnovers. (Note* in this scenario he will have a higher PER because he won't be shooting as much)

Conclusion: Knicks win. Linsanity continues even though Chandler is the player of the game.

Scenario 3:

Lin plays the worse game of his career and gets bench by the 3rd quarter. (Possible but unlikely)

8 pts on 3 of 24 shooting, 3 assist, 6 rebounds, 9 turnovers, 1 steal, 2 technical, 2 new bandaids (1 on upper eye and 1 on a busted nose), 2 game suspension for a scruffle with Wade for grabbing him from behind after being beat on the wing (easily I might add), and multiple tears rolling down his eyes sobbing over the end of Linsanity sitting on the bench while Lebron continues to taunt him with multiple dunks during a 30 point blowout.

Conclusion: a huge spike in suicides not only in China but all asian communities in America as well.

This is the NBA. Anything can happen.

[rodman91]

:no: In Lin We Trust

[BlitzForce]

40 points, 15 assists , 8 rebounds, 6 steals, 1 turnover

Lin always turns it up for big games, so I'm predicting a career high in every catergory :hammertime: :pimp:

[LA_Showtime]

I would be shocked if Lin had a good game against the Heat. I expect LeBron to shut his ass down in the 4th, and I'm a huge Jeremy Lin fan.

[bmulls]

I have a feeling Lebron is going to lock Jeremy down tonight. I think it will be good for him in the long term to get punched in the mouth by a serious finals contender though, better now than in the playoffs.

16 points, 4 rebs, 9 ast, 2 stl and 7 TO
