    Lin's career can't be long if he keeps playing like this.
    He need to improve his skill and shooting.

    I think he already adjusting to it. He plays much more in control this season and doesn't initiate contact as often as he did last season.

    Smart always appeared to recognize Jeremy's toughness, which is why that stupid rule he implemented solely for him always confused me.

    It's not as if he was the only no-name rook on the team. I've read that some people in the organization didn't want him and felt he was there just to be a gimmick, but if you know he's so dedicated, why take it out on him?

    Smart is a terrible coach. The Sac team has probably the same amount of talent as us but the coach has no control over the egos and cannot seem to put a system together that maximizes the strength of his players.

    he should mix in two legged jumps into his drives. he gets to basket by his speed instead of jumping over others - that's why he always jumps off his left leg. but a two legged jump gives him a more stable based to land back on.

    How is Keith Smart, of all people, impressed by this feat when he currently coaches a PF/C who does this 2 or 3 times a week?

    Not sure that could even qualify as cankles... it looks like his thighs run straight down to his feet.

    It's recommended that you bust out your shoulder every couple of weeks, and then pop it back in yourself.

    Coach: Now stand beside.. er at the sideline.. worthy rook.
    Lin: Tis but a scratch coach.
    Coach: A scratch?!? Your shoulder's popped out!
    Lin: No it isn't. (pops it back in)

    Seriously though, he needs to take better care of himself.
