Jordan also said he'd beat Lebron 1 vs 1 so I would take his opinion with a grain of salt

Lin really needs the ball in his hands to be effective.

So you are saying that Jordan is always right.

MJ has a horrible eye for talent (except Frank Kaminsky :roll: )

Depends on how the coaches feel about Kemba Walker. Walker shot a horrible 38.5% but was still the Hornets' top scorer last season as well as basically being the team leader in assists (Mo Williams averaged more but only played in 27 games). I barely watched the Hornets last season but those numbers say to me that Walker got a lot of touches. If the team thinks that was a problem and want to supplant Walker with Lin as the primary ballhandler then "Linsanity" will return as he can get numbers if he always has the ball. But if Lin is just going to be a reserve with Walker still being the featured player then there will be no reviving of Linsanity as he's shown he's nothing special playing off the ball.

That said, neither of them is the way to go. The best thing for Charlotte offensively would be to get some guards that can shoot and let Big Al and Frank Kaminsky go to work in the paint. If those two can play together Charlotte would have an inside attack that almost no one in the EC could guard (I think Washington, Chicago and maybe Detroit have the personnel and no one else).

It's only preseason but the Hornets are 4-0 and destroyed the Clippers this morning. The main thing Clifford wants to do is create more ball movement and not spending the entire shot clock trying to get it to Big Al down low only to have Kemba chuck one up at the buzzer. Check out this play:

The Hornets of last season never had ball movement like that.

Preseason... who cares. Let's see if he'll do well in the season/playoffs

Yet he's still in the league whereas Michael Beasley isn't. That's pretty linsane.

Did any reasonable person think it would last? The only people I know who thought he was a legit star were casual fans.

if Lin has a bit of black blood in him, everyone on ISH would be all over his buts right now.

He needs an authentic african name like Jeremy Mashibena Mukamba Xaba, so all u ppl can feel the root of origin with him.

Never gonna happen again.

While I enjoyed Linsanity but it was definitely a fluke. Epic 2 weeks though!!!!

It's not like it's a difficult thing dude. No big deal. Anybody can do it.

Back to the topic, considering the coach doesn't seem racist, Lin would do much better than he did with Rockets and Lakers. But he won't return to the 2 week glory with the Knicks when he was better than Jordan, Bird and Magic combined.

Numbers don't lie. For that very brief period he was the god of basketball.
Not gonna happen again though.

Lin is an east coast player plain and simple, he never should of gone out west. Looks quick af, much more explosion on that first step compared to last year on the Lakers.

linsanity was flukey and all, but it didnt naturally fizzle out like flukes usually do. it instantly died the moment carmelo stepped back on floor and it never recovered. i wonder how long linsanity wouldve gone on for.
