The Lingend is over

[BlitzForce]

What's wrong? He's acting like this is for everyone, why is everyone else ok? Is he still saying he's been hurt? From the minor knee surgery in the beginning of April?

http://news.yahoo.com/lin-needs-knee-surgery-likely-done-season-223604839--spt.html

In early (first week) of April Lin had surgery that would keep him out a maximum of 6 weeks. It's now been approx 28 weeks.

He hasn't played NBA level games since then
He's getting back into game shape, getting his timing back etc

He's also getting fouled, and not getting any calls, you know bumps make you miss. Lin went to the line an average of 8 times a game last season, so far not so much.

He got bumped on this play, the only shot he made, last game - no call

Dude got no highlight time on the ESPN recap... surprising. Then again, one dude on the team did score 45... understandable.

This. All Lin's stats will be through Harden.

[Jyap9675]

Harden saved Lin, but in a way they complement each other. Harden enjoys being the 1st option

[spiegel]

Really happy with Linmaster and his game last night. He and the hardbeard are dynamite in the open court.

[Kujo]

I hope this Lin is a scrub non-sense stops. Dude can play. Impressive stat line last night.

[plUto or bUst]

This. All Lin's stats will be through Harden.

Just like last year right when Lin's best teammate was Tyson chandler and he had Landry Fields as his backcourt mate?

Harden takes a lot of pressure off Lin but don't act like Harden makes Lin.

Agree, it's not like Harden's the one grabbing rebounds or passing the ball for Lin.

He should be lucky because Harden relives pressure off of him. It's no longer Lin's duty to perform night in and night out, it's now Harden's duty.

Those two compliment each other well though but it's not like they make each other into very good players. They are both very good as is.

[Bandito]

Lingend and the bearded one are going to be legendary book it!

Agreed they both tend to be careless with the ball so having them share ball handling duties instead of making just one be the main ball handler works in favor of the rockets. It also helps that harden is an excellent spot up shooter and that lin is pretty good at getting a pass and driving to the hoop(needs to finish better at the rim though).

[westside_baller]

They'll get better once they have an opportunity to practice together as a team.
