    Nets now 3-1 without lin-disaster dragging them down including beating the Cavs tonight. Lin is just not good.

    De Angelo is younger and has more potential..... he should just get his priorities set right.

    Was Linsanity the start of something, or a phenomenon that will never be duplicated?

    Both, probably. When Lin came off the bench and took over the NBA for a few weeks in 2012, leading the woeful Knicks to a seven-game winning streak, there was no precedent for an Asian-American player playing such a dominant, spectacular role for an NBA team. What's more, he did it in the world's media capital, and his exploits resonated instantly in New York, from coast to coast and across the globe.

    Though his career has taken several twists, Lin remains a popular and productive player when healthy, and he has done more than any player other than Yao Ming to force NBA observers to reconsider the talents of players of Asian heritage. -- Royce Webb

    Nets have more wins this season without Lin than they did a season ago with Lin.

    Jeremy the two weeks of fluke play or should I say Chris Duhon and Kendal marshall like by product of D’antoni still in the league?

    One thing is for sure with Russell a far superior player to Lin the role player the nets don’t really need a over the hill 30 year old average role player anymore

    Devin Harris had a similar streak actually. They are about comparable in terms of careers.

    That's why Yao is #29 on the list.

    Chris Dun and Kendall Marshall had great stats with D'Antoni, but their teams did not win.

    Good thing Lin is only 29...
