DunkinDerozan Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 I'm excited to watch linsanity for a full game to see how good he really is. Any Knicks fans here want to let me know how he's been defensively? Calderon is coming off a 30 point game, so we'll see if he can shut Jose down better then Derek Fischer did.

JYD Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 Lin's been great defensively. At least much better than anyone could've expected. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0BYePYQDrtc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Built Ford Tough Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 Hopefully Jeremy gives the Raptors tank a nice VaLINtines gift in the form of a loss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NomarFachix Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 He's competent defensively. Not great, not terrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Built Ford Tough Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 Oh yeah, forgot to mention in my post that Bayless will be back in the Raptors lineup, so we aren't going to get the pleasure of watching the highly anticipated Calderon/Lin matchup.

Built Ford Tough Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 Lol, you know the Linsanity hype is out of control when he is able to get the Toronto Raptors on ESPN. Well... ESPN2 and it is only for the 4th quarter. After all, they are still the Toronto Raptors. Royce WebbJeremy Lin on ESPN tonite! Tune in to NBA Coast to Coast at 9 pm ET on ESPN2 for live Knicks-Raptors 4th quarter action. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guru Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 Lin is so good driving with his left hand. I can't wait for this game... should be awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Built Ford Tough Posted February 15, 2012 Report Share Posted February 15, 2012 I think there are more Lin fans at the ACC than Raptor ones and the Raptors pregame is more about Lin than the actual Raptors. Also, looks like Bayless isn't playing like originally thought, so Lin will be able to light up Calderon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No kidding. did you see the kid with the Carmelo shirt that he just made a 1 infront of it with tape and taped over the name Anthony and put lin? Talk about badwagoner.

Built Ford Tough Posted February 15, 2012 Report Share Posted February 15, 2012 Nice to see Casey getting his championship ring from Chandler. I didn't realize they were doing that tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Built Ford Tough Posted February 15, 2012 Report Share Posted February 15, 2012 What the hell has gotten into Calderon over the past 3 games? I can't even remember the last time he has played this well for a single game, let alone 3. He already has 12 points and has taken 7 shots. I like aggressive Jose, although I probably won't like him as much if he ends up winning the Raptors the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Built Ford Tough Posted February 15, 2012 Report Share Posted February 15, 2012 Kleiza should really stick to spot up shooting and posting up. He is a disaster waiting to happen when he tries to drive and that charge was a perfect example of that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Built Ford Tough Posted February 15, 2012 Report Share Posted February 15, 2012 Raptors have 15 points off of 7 Knick turnovers so far. They are doing a great job of making the Knicks pay for their sloppy offensive execution. Lin has also turned it over on 3 straight possessions, all of which led to Raptor baskets (a DeRozan layup, a Davis dunk and a DeRozan dunk). He also had a turnover in the 1st that led to a Calderon 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Built Ford Tough Posted February 15, 2012 Report Share Posted February 15, 2012 Make that 17 points off 8 Knick turnovers after Barbosa scores after another Lin turnover. Knicks look really lethargic out there. Poor ball movement, sloppy execution, not getting back on defense and just being out worked by the Raptors. This lead could easily be 20 for the Raptors if Kleiza hits these open jumpers he keeps on missing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Built Ford Tough Posted February 15, 2012 Report Share Posted February 15, 2012 Calderon with a huge flop to draw that offensive foul on Chandler. He definitely sold that one as it looked like Chandler's arm barely even touched Calderon's face and yet Calderon went down like he was shot.

Built Ford Tough Posted February 15, 2012 Report Share Posted February 15, 2012 As much as I loathe the Lin/Nash comparisions, even I have to admit that last player of Lin's looked eerily similar to Nash. Getting into the paint, keeps his dribble alive, draws a big on him, retreats back to the 3 point line and then dribbles into an in rythym 3 over the outstrecthed arm of the bigger defender. Looked identical to what Nash does so often. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Built Ford Tough Posted February 15, 2012 Report Share Posted February 15, 2012 Well, at least vintage "pound the rock, completely stagnating the offense" Calderon showed up at the end of the half. It looked like Toronto was going to have a 20 point halftime lead but the Knicks cut it down to 11 after the Raptors offense completely stagnated due to Calderon's over dribbling. If the Knicks come out energized in the 3rd and the Raptors offense continues to sputter, I can defintiely see them taking this game and saving the Raptors tank.
