He's also avg 13 & 8. Please stop turning this into a new york thing.

I'm not. 13 and 8 are good numbers but not exactly like "WOW" or "Insane" and sports center absolutely does cater to big markets and regardless of what people say most of them still watch ESPN for highlights. I'm not hating on the kid. I said I'll wait longer to judge.

24,17, & 5 are though. You have to take into consideration that everyone thought that he was a project or would be a bust so it's a pleasant surprise how well he's playing so far

He's good, but as always the New York media is a hype machine. Remember Linsanity? If he was putting up these exact numbers in Memphis or some other small market no one would pay attention. I will wait to judge until I see more than 15 games.

Never really was impressed with Lin. He was all hype. Porzingis is a different, he's just 19 and already showing that he can play in the big leagues.

Porzigod's rookie stats align very similarly to Dirk's
