    Aside from missing his 3's Lin's played fine. 6 assists in 12 minutes. On the flipside I'd say Lin stifles Westbrook as well.

    Yep, it will get better, once he settles in. Expectations are far too great on him. He's performing as I expected, hot and cold...icyhot.

    Lin needs to get that fg percent up by driving to the basket.

    Yeah he was carving up the defense really well. Lin needs to stop going under screens when Westbrook is handling the ball though.

    Th Chancellor should have called out Clyde by saying something about commitment to your job and seeing it through.

    Lin "stifles" Westbrook? Please. Try watching the game sometime.

    I think I figured it out... from an article in that "Truth about Jeremy Lin" thread... he needs to shoot a set shot like Steve Nash... may explain why he's so solid on FT's.

    “I remember him refusing to, for an entire season, shoot a set shot versus a jump shot,” Baskauskas said. “He was way better at shooting a set shot because he wasn’t strong enough to shoot a jump shot yet, but he just insisted on shooting one. And myself, and Coach Diepenbrock and everyone was telling him: ‘Stop shooting that stupid jump shot — you never make it. Shoot a set shot.’ But he just refused and was just being stubborn.”

    Actually it's smarter to let Westbrook shoot jumpers. He's below 40% this season. He just gets hot sometimes but better to let him chuck than let him penetrate.
