    If you are a LOF and you worship a scrub player, you spin things to try to make your hero look good.

    It's what LOFs do.

    If you want to save 15% or more on your car insurance, you switch to Geico.

    It's what you do.

    if he really wanted to help kids he would have donated that 3 million dollar salary to them or to an organization helping kids

    Playing for the Beijing Ducks does nothing to help children.

    He's so LOF, he's ignoring Lin's crying and emotional ROCK BOTTOM speech at Church where he was talking about NBA Free Agency.

    China wanted to pay him $3 Million a year

    So I guess God did answer his request and sent him to China

    because God knows he doesn't belong in the NBA

    We all understand English but we're not burdened by an irrational lust for Lin that changes our objectivity in reading English.

    You are burdened with an irrational lust for bashing Lin. There is plenty to bash about Lin (eg. the mistakes in the playoffs, the crying, the bible-quoting tweets, etc)...no need to irrationally make stuff up to bash him about like you guys are doing here.

    Calling a scrub player a scrub isnt bashing him.

    It's stating a fact.

    Airemy is a scrub which is why no NBA team wanted to sign him and was crying just like you are in your post.

    Mental midget player with a mental midget fanbase lol.

    I understand Lin now,

    Rock Bottom is 2.5 million dollars so Beijing offered him 3 million dollars



    $500K is the difference between Rock Bottom and helping kids in China

    Calling him a scrub player is an opinion. And that's ok if that's your opinion, I have no problem with that. This whole part of this thread was CometsWin saying that his marketing CEO made the decision for Lin to play in China, which is fake news....I was just pointing that out to him.

    "Rock bottom" doesn't refer to the money...it refers to not having the opportunity to play a significant role on a team. I'm 100% sure that Lin would have been willing to play for less than the veteran minimum if it meant that he'd have a significant role on a team. I guess it's hard to understand that some people aren't driven by money...

    You realize Toronto gave him a chance but he completely sucked
    And Fred V was much better than him

    Just like every team he joined

    they find much better players ahead of him

    Jeremy Lin is motivated by money
    Or else he would have actually helped Chinese kids for free

    @CometsWin

    Lin fans are deranged and delusional

    Airemy is a scrub. <--- Fact

    Or else he wouldn't be crying that no one in NBA wants him after hoping and waiting someone give him a contract.

    And now he is playing in a scrub league. That's what scrub players do lol.

    Keep crying.

    ask 30 NBA teams he's a scrub not merely an opinion of posters on this board

    Yeah Toronto gave him a chance early on but he sucked so bad and proved to be such a scrub that they wouldnt even play him a single meaningful minute in the of playoff...... even when VanVleet was struggling in the early stages.

    Now that is a scrub and Toronto was quick to realize it.

    I guess our "opinion" of Airemy being a scrub aligns with "opinions" of every single GM in the NBA.

    In my opinion, I don't believe Lin is really doing himself any favors by demonstrating his insecurity on multiple occasions when he is disrespected by those involved in NBA circles.

    Example 1:
    Lin tweets out a passive-aggressive message directed towards Rockets for having a Photoshopped image of Carmelo Anthony wearing "his" #7 jersey.


    Example 2:
    Lin has hit "rock bottom" because no NBA roster is willing to sign him.

    Example 3:
    At a graduation ceremony, Lin cites a time when he called out James Harden at practice. Lin stated the following: "He was right in what he was trying to say, but he was wrong in his body language."

    ---

    The NBA is a superstar-driven league. Superstars demand the most respect, and subsequently are criticized the most. This is just my opinion, but it seems to me as if Lin wants superstar treatment and none of the criticism comes along with it... while putting up mediocre at best statistics.

    Best of luck to Lin in his basketball career moving forward, but he won't be missed by me.

    This post is full of truth

    who wants to play with him ?
    lin calling out harden is like a chicken calling out a lion

    My favorite is when Kobe has to tell how to manage the clock and be aware of the game situation

    he was so unaware of game situations
    It cost us the Portland series

    If we never had Lin and just Patrick Beverley
    Our team would be have beat Portland in my opinion
