Ramon Sessions vs. Jeremy Lin: Who is the better player?

[Godzuki]

Lin of course...

Sessions does have better handles and better drive capability but Lin has better everything else.

[DMV2]

Lin is better right now and will still have a chance to be better. Sessions will just be a PG behind Kobe, Bynum and Gasol.

There's already been a few games where Lin has outplayed Amare, Melo and Chandler. Lin is supposed to be the 3rd or 4th best playmaker on the team but with Amare's & Melo's inconsistency it gives Lin more opportunity to shine.

Lin isn't and won't likely be in the Rose, Rondo, Westbrook, Deron, Nash, Paul, Parker class of elite PG's. But I do think Lin can be comparable with PG's like Conley, Holiday, Lou Williams, Lawson, Harris(when he was in NJ), Nelson, etc. Points guards who can, from time to time, be their team's best player on any given game.

Lin, he would be a better fit in LA as well.

Jeremy Lin

Sessions more control and less turnovers. He also knows how to get his teammates shots.

Why are people still acting like Lin is in the midst of his 8 game winning streak?

His play has drastically declined since then in terms of production, and some of his glaring weaknesses are now more visible than before.

And yes, I've seen many of his games and I see a pretty average player - borderline starter at this point. In fact, probably the one thing that'll keep him in the starting lineup despite his declining play is the marketing angle. That's it.

Rofl, to summarize all the gibberish you just wrote, he is a MARGINAL PLAYER.

Ladies and gentlemen, we just found out Stephen A. Smith's ISH account!!!

Nice intelligent counter-post.

This forum is populated with fanboys. I get that. But there are many others in addition to Stephen A that don't buy Lin as anything beyond an average player. To be so convinced of your own opinion on Lin that you have to ROFL LOL at anything that contradicts your opinion is laughable.

[strifed169]

Sounds like everyone is forgetting Lin is still virtually a rookie learning on the fly in a condensed season at the most toughest position in the league. The Linsanity stretch showed what he is truly capable of at his full potential(allstar) if you think otherwise youre most likely just hating on him cause of the fanbase (like every other hater)

[SwooshReturns]

All of them are average PGs ... Brandon Jennings, Jermey Lin, Ramon Sessions ... blah, nothing special.

[clayton]

Both are on a team that gets them overrated.

[CelticBaller]

Lin > Rondo

Get mad

the only one mad here was lin after that whoopin rondo gave him

[Godzuki]

the only one mad here was lin after that whoopin rondo gave him

he's still mad

[pnyozzzoo]

lol, Rondo should be mad that his skill sets and ego makes him untradable and stuck in the sinking ship of a Celtics team.

Good luck living the the past memory for the rest of your lottery nba career.
