I don't get this thread.

NOH should've kept him for what? They already had CP3.He's on this 3rd team because he isn't all that good.

This dude used to get buckets at will. Too bad he couldn't do shyt else.

Dajuan Wagner would have been Flip Murray on steroids, but oh well.

Darren did not appeal to a demographic that isn't know to watch basketball nor did he play in a big market at the time.

What about Isaiah Thomas this year, he was the 60th pick in the draft.

Strong armed Jimmer out of the starting PG spot and once he got there he averaged 14.8ppg, 5.4apg, 3.1apg, 48% from the field and 40% from 3.

to be fair, i expected that out of isaiah thomas, the only reason he was drafted so late was because of his height, but anyone who saw him at washington knew that he could ball and would be a great floor general, and that he is strong as hell and plays bigger than he is, he's a more polished nate robinson in every aspect minus dunking.

and darren collison was a ifrst round pick, and has put up the same numbers throughout his nba career, and he will prob b getting 7-8 million salary per once his deal expires.

hes an average pg, i put him in the dj augustin mode, hes on his third team because new orleans had cp3 then got jarret jack so he was expendable, and vogel perferred to play hill over him and his contract is almost up

more than likely he will start in dallas, hes a good player who can shoot the 3 and shoots a high percentage

That was never his point

My point is, Lin is constantly being projected as the next Steve Nash, has been hyped up because of his race, got a big contract and is this international superstar even though he got cut twice played in the d league and was on the verge of getting cut again. He got a paid off the strengh of a few weeks where he played great. Collinson did it as a rookie and he filled in for chris paul and was never over hyped like this. Collinson was a late first round pick for a reason. The media and fans hyping this kid up is to blame.
