Linball

[Den1983]

Was it his brother's couch? I could have sworn it was Landry Fields'. Atleast that's what I kept hearing mentioned on TV.

Anyway, love what Lin's doing right now. The kid has a legit skill set. He's quick, he can control the ball while drawing contact, he's a sound passer, he makes quick decisions. He's perfect for that system.

If nothing else, Lin is a welcome relief from all those eurostiffs.

and those hard luck cases from the projects raised by their single mom and 24 brothers and sisters while their dad is in jail or drug and robbery charges.

It's been his brother's couch all but one night, when his brother had guests so Jeremy crashed at Landry's. (His brother goes to NYU.). (And I know too much meaningless detail.)

He is fun to watch (and it's always fun to see the Lakers lose), but his offense is far better than his defense.

Of course . . . that makes him a Mike D' dreammmmmmm.

Fantastic interview by Ken Berger, with Metta World Peace telling Lin he should wear leather pants:

"Put down that law book, stop reading the New York Times and start reading the Daily News. Newsday, that’s the one. I like that one because there’s always color in that one."

Oh, Ron Artest, I love your ****ing craziness.

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ ..... when they're one of the top eight teams in the East, and on the verge of getting out of the second round for the first time since 2000, wake me up.

I trust you're joking. Anyone with the even most rudimentary news judgement sees this as a tremendous story.

Some people don't think it's a good story unless they say so first.

 

[NickMordo]

The New York shmoozing, that's what. I hope the Knicks don't win a title until 2030.

What is it exactly you think you mean by "shmoozing?'

I think it's pretty clear.

I think it's pretty clear you don't actually know what the word means.

You are such a good reader of people.

 

[imjustagirl]

Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's not what you think it means. Which I'm still not sure what definition you were even after.

 

[Bruce Leroy]

And you spelled it wrong too. Schmoozing.

 

[Boom_70]

The Knicks win their 5th in a row. Lin drops in 20 and had 8 assists.

 

[imjustagirl]

Stop schmoozing, Boom.

Y'all are making me go brouhaha

Wolves choked that one away, 11 points in fourth. Rubio had two turnovers in the game, both in last 30 seconds. Lin came back down to earth - he was 1 for 13 in the second half, six turnovers - but made the winning free throw. Shumpert and Fields had real nice games. They're actually playing like a team with Lin, which is just as impressive as his individual games had been. We'll see if it continues when the big boys get back.

 

[heyabbott]

Wait til the ghetto gang gets back. 'Melo and Amare won't stand for this team **** and some Asian smart guy getting all the love.

I could not stop laughing at Spike Lee jumping out of his seat and flashing the peace signs whenever Metta World Peace did something that was less than peaceful.

What a scumbag.

But didn't you know you tweet ANYTHING and make it all right a few hours later?

That's why Twitter's so great. You don't have to be responsible for anything that spills off your fingers.
