Rondo is leagues ahead of Lin
leagues? no but you have shown you dislike something about this guy so I'm tuning you out

Rondo has performed really well for several years
ok

Lin has not completed 1 NBA season, much less 1 half of a season

Some of you would perform fellatio on Lin if given the chance I think.
cause we like his story and think he's playing great?
again sounds like you are the one with the agenda against the kid

Guys who have won games, been to the playoffs, been successful for multiple years. There are many of them.

Plus D'Antoni doesn't care as much about that as most coaches. It's a perfect matching of a player and a coach.
"He has committed six or more in six straight games, but D'Antoni said Saturday he wanted Lin to keep taking risks."
It's only the fans who aren't factoring in what the coach is asking him to that are up in arms about this.

There is a difference between liking his "story" and sitting here saying he is one of the top PG's in the league and saying he is better than some very proven all-stars and guys who have won championships and playoff games and been in the league for years. Also, to LAUGH if someone compares him to Rondo as if Lin as a basketball player can even compare to what Rondo has done over years in his mere 8 starts. Its laughable that anyone would think that highly of Lin already, it falls in line with the media hoopla.

Name three basketball players who have been on Lin's level for "years."

well #1 I didn't say that. You may have taken it that way but I never said that

I laughed at the shooting aspect only. I've given Rondo his due for what he adds to that team, something you can't seem to do for Mr. Lin
I guess you still think Rondo is a better shooter, right Mrs. Rondo?

Shooting, driving, who cares. The Celtics won a championship with Rondo as the starting PG playing significant minutes, and he has led them to lots of wins and multiple playoff appearances. The point of the game is to win, Lin has won in his minimal appearances, but Rondo has performed at the highest level on the biggest stage NBA Finals twice.
The Knicks have as many wins as losses, they are the most talked about 8th seed in NBA history.

lol what a homer. I like Felton as a person but he is one of the worst point guards in the league right now. I'm a blazer fan btw

stop with this "it's new york" shite... I live here and they were barely a thought when they were losing and now Lin has made the team relevant again and a lot of people can't handle this

we don't know... the possibility is driving the story IMO
now with Tebow we knew his luck would run out bc he wasn't performing well. his close wins drove that story, but you won't win in the NFL forever going 8-23 for 105 yards
