Jeremy Lin Not Getting More Minutes From the Charlotte Hornets Without Someone Getting Injured
Once again, despite the preseason promises and indications during the first half of the season, Jeremy Lin finds himself in familiar territory, only on the Charlotte Hornets and not the Los Angeles Lakers or Houston Rockets: If Kemba Walker, Nicolas Batum or Michael Kidd-Gilchrist don’t pick up any injuries, Lin isn’t going to see a lot of playing time from now until the end of the season.

Jeremy Lin a Shell of His Former Self on a Red Hot Charlotte Hornets
Like it or hate it, the Charlotte Hornets don’t seem to be missing Jeremy Lin much for now. It’s not that he’s injured or out for whatever reason, but in two of the three games since he’s been demoted back to the bench and took a big hit to his playing time, even the minutes he did get didn’t really seem to matter.

Jeremy Lin Running Out of Reasons to Stay Another Season with the Charlotte Hornets
The healthy version of the Charlotte Hornets, with Steve Clifford preferring Kemba Walker and Nicolas Batum pairing in the backcourt while Michael Kidd-Gilchrist starts at small forward leaves very little room for Jeremy Lin, which is bad for both him and the team.

Jeremy Lin Clutch for the Charlotte Hornets, Michael Kidd-Gilchrist Need Him Bad
The Charlotte Hornets pick up a nice win in a close game with the Washington Wizards, beating them 108-104 with Jeremy Lin, who had another forgettable game hitting two huge shots in the final 35 seconds that clinched the win, while Kemba Walker and Nicolas Batum get to run the team without interruption and Michael Kidd-Gilchrist gets cast aside for it.

Jeremy Lin Disappointed With Reality on the Charlotte Hornets
After three straight wins the Charlotte Hornets and Steve Clifford did the expected thing, which is to forget what made them play good basketball and benched Jeremy Lin, which resulted in poor rhythm and execution from their most important player, resulting in a 98-95 loss to the Miami Heat.

Jeremy Lin to Start, Kemba Walker off the Bench Should be What the Charlotte Hornets do Next
There’s a learning curve for teams with players that haven’t together for a very long time. The Charlotte Hornets, with plenty of changes in the offseason, especially when it comes to adding Jeremy Lin and Nicolas Batum to Kemba Walker, while Michael Kidd-Gilchrist misses half a season before making his debut, has to be confusing sometimes for everyone involved.

Jeremy Lin, Nicolas Batum & Michael Kidd-Gilchrist Make the Charlotte Hornets Play the Right Basketball
In a game that seemed like a loss before it even began, the ability of Jeremy Lin to lead a team when he has the chance to be the point guard without interruptions, allowed the Charlotte Hornets to pick up a huge 106-97 win over the Cleveland Cavaliers, with another big game from Michael Kidd-Gilchrist, excellent shooting from Marvin Williams and Frank Kaminsky, and all this without Kemba Walker on the floor.

Jeremy Lin Might get the Charlotte Hornets All to Himself for One Night
The Charlotte Hornets might begin their four-game homestand against the best team in the Eastern conference with a lot of players sitting out. Kemba Walker is dealing with knee problems, Nicolas Batum with his toe issues, Cody Zeller is still questionable. Who is left? Jeremy Lin (hopefully with a good ankle), Michael Kidd-Gilchrist and Marvin Williams? Doesn’t sound like much.

Jeremy Lin Hobbles, Michael Kidd-Gilchrist Bounces & the Charlotte Hornets Cruise
The West coast tour ends with a 101-82 win for the Charlotte Hornets against the Los Angeles Lakers.

Notes on Jeremy Lin, Michael Kidd-Gilchrist, Walker-Batum & Rest of the Charlotte Hornets Season
The Charlotte Hornets finish their Western conference tour in a state of flux. Nicolas Batum just coming back and doing more harm than good, Jeremy Lin injured and not given the credit he deserves, Michael Kidd-Gilchrist returning without any transition phase, Steve Clifford confusing us with sudden creativity and chance taking in an almost lost game and one Kemba Walker, who plays the same way and seems to be unaffected with everything around him, while not affecting anything himself.
