[NBA] Sans spotlight, Lin finds ideal locale in ‘low-key’ Charlotte

[NBA] Sans spotlight, Lin finds ideal locale in ‘low-key’ Charlotte

Out of the blue, there is a must read article by Sekou Smith at nba.com about JLin’s transition, exemplary work ethic, and most importantly earning the praise from his new teammates & coaches. He’s winning the hearts & earning respect from his teammates. Good story by https://t.co/t2LdTdcM5B Sekou Smith. Awesome quotes from Marvin W about Lin. Cliff & Kemba, too. https://... »

G2 CHA @ATL Game Thread

Game #2 is about to start vs Atlanta Hawks Coach Clifford is still testing the ineffective Hairston at SF starting lineup. 1. Will the Hornets (or Al) play better defense that allowed so many inside penetration and easy points by the Heat? 2. Will they allow another hot 3PT shooting as 60% by the Heat? 3. With Jeremy Lamb coming back, will it help to create better spacing that Jeremy can run bette... »

JLin played very well and finished with 17p/2a/1r in 27 min (5-10 shooting) in 94-104L vs MIA He had a great chemistry w/ Kemba+Batum in the 4th quarter to cut the lead to 5 but the 16pt Heat lead was too much to overcome. If he started, Charlotte would have won since Kemba/Batum shot very poorly at 8-28 shooting and they had many open looks with Lin’s presence in the 4th quarter run. @JLin7 finis... »

Game Time is here. Will the Hornets surprise the NBA to beat the Heat at their own home court? Will they continue to play unselfish team-ball down the stretch? Let’s hope/pray/wish/support JLin to stay healthy and have fun to play his aggressive game whenever he steps on the court Let’s go, HairSanity! http://www.nbaliveonline.tv/streaming http://www.nba.com/leaguepass/ (free trial through N... »

Finally, there is only 1 day left before the 1st game of the season. Jeremy Lin fans have been awaiting for this moment for a while. Preseason summary Jeremy Lin strong plays as the best Hornets player in the preseason with both 1st and 2nd unit mean Coach Clifford will rely on him to empower the 2nd unit to start the game and close out the games strongly in the 4th quarter or Overtime. The last B... »

Jeremy Lin was clutch one more time in the 2nd and 4th quarter to lead the Hornets to 7-0 preseason record. Coach Clifford show his faith in Jeremy by trusting him to play in the 2nd and 4th quarter after a slow start in the 1st quarter when Jeremy’s shots haven’t fallen and he chose to facilitate more. This probably wouldn’t have happened in Houston or LA in the past 3 years. It’s only preseason ... »

Will Lin play or continue to rest? He’s available and Pete Guelli tweet invited Hornets fans to come watch Batum, Lin, Hawes and others as if JLin will play. If yes, it would be great to see JLin in action again developing more chemistry with his teammates. No live TV tonight. Head down to @TWCArena If you have not you need to see @nicolas88batum @JLin7 @spencerhawes00 etc. These guys can play. &m... »

It is still uncertain if Jeremy Lin will play today or not since Lin has caught cold from the China trip. Coach Clifford will continue to experiment with different lineup for the rest of preseason games but it’s comforting to know that JLin has aced his assignments with the 1st and 2nd unit. Coaches will certainly consider his unique ability to make everyone better in the Hornets system, especiall... »
