He's a fucking idiot columnist for the New York Daily News. He just wrote an article criticizing the signing of Jason Kidd at the advanced age of 39 for a point guard. 39 is old for any position in basketball.
I have followed Jason Kidd's career since his high school days where I saw him play live to win a couple state championships in Cali., Oakland to be exact. Kidd will do okay next season mentoring Jeremy Lin if the Knicks match the Houston Rocket's offer sheet.
This Lawrence dumbshit still is a hater. He first writes that Jeremy Lin is a backup who will make an outrageous amount of money. The Knicks and MSG have made something like $300M off of Linsanity. Even if Jeremy doesn't pan out- he still will be worth every penny the organization pays him and then some. And Jeremy Lin is a starter, not a backup.
Then this fucking numbskull writes that Jeremy Lin isn't good enough. Good enough for what? This kid endured three different teams and four different coaches last season. Four different systems. Well, he didn't get any chance with the Warriors since they waived him the first day of training camp and that imbecile Mark Jackson had the gall to say that he never saw him play. The guy had six months to study tape and he never did. And he didn't get a chance in Houston, which had three point guards with guaranteed contracts when they signed Jeremy and subsequently waived him and now all three of the point guards are gone(Lowery, Dragic, and Flynn).
Lin flourished under D'Antoni's system and did well in Woodson's bullshit boring system featuring ball hog and isolation dick Carmelo Anthony.
Unless Jeremy gets hurt, he's more than good enough. Those sportswriters for tabloid papers like the New York Daily News aren't good enough- especially this Mitch Lawrence prick...
