For making yet another Lin thread... But I have to ask the opinion of people on here.
How is it possible that a guy comes so out of left field and plays SO incredibly well? We're not talking a couple of good games anymore or fluff opposition we're talking a PG leading a team and carrying them on his back with INCREDIBLE moves. This is not just adrenaline anymore, it's not one magical night or a bum team or some miracle... Lin seems like the real deal right now.
I just really don't understand how no one picked up on how good this kid is/was/could be. His dribbling, finishing, acceleration, vision, IQ, awareness are all off the charts. His jumpshot is decent and his defense is really solid. He's pesky, aggressive, puts his body on the line and he's everywhere on the court at once (watch when people put the ball inside Lin is always coming close to try to steal and always getting right back out to challenge the shot, and he rarely fouls).
I'm totally lost as to how a kid goes 1 and a half years in the league before anyone realizes how good he is.
