Greg Ostertag is in the D-league right now after "retiring" 4 seasons ago lol. I remember him being a decent defender with Utah but he's soo slow.
He lasted less than a month in the D-league before calling it quits for good last month.

You can't have both Amare and Tyson clogging up the paint on offense. Amare is a PF, not a C, and he has a good enough mid-range jumper to often be catching the ball in the high post and pop for a shot or drive to the hoop. That's the only way Chandler and Stat will compliment each other well.
The type of band-wagoner I'm talking about is... never watched a basketball game ever, maybe even never played it, blowing up status updates about linsanity and starting off conversations with " oh i was just finishing watching the knicks game.." The only reason everyone is cheering is because he's chinese taipei, if he was afro american or somthin this thread would never exist
Floyd.... is that you ??
in that case I'll respond the same thing I tweeted back at you....
@FloydMayweather so it has nothing to do with the fact that he's lead a horrible team who couldn't buy a game to 5 straight wins? u idiot
and for the people downplaying his success because he's playing in a PG oriented system, that's true and false at the same time.... true because certain systems are easier to play in, but false because you still have to have the skill present no matter what you're doing on the floor...
as for the turnovers yall forget that even Nash when playing for D'Antoni has always been a high turnover PG as well, but Lin is averaging WAY too many... he needs to chill a little bit and attack when the defense gives him a little something, instead of recklessly trying to push his way almost every time, that alone will cut his turnovers down in half..
Now not bragging or nothing but relevant point is relevant, few years ago I played a summer circuit of pro ball in Europe where I backed up an ex NBA player who played minutes with LeBron in Cleveland... why ? because aside from him they needed someone else who knew how to run an american style pick and roll, so I got the shot... as opposed to majority of Euro ball where they just swing the ball around until there is space to shoot or drive... so the relevance is, sometimes the circumstances are perfect for a player and his specific skillset which works out for that player, I know this from first hand experience but at the end of the day there is no way I could have played unless I was good at the game of basketball overall..... Lin is good at this game, asian white black, don't matter... he's GOOD at the game
