    I don’t want either one. I don’t see how either helps us win this year.

    Lin would actually be pretty useful under this system. But he just gotta not be a p***y and play hard nosed defense

    Lin has become so fragile. He is more injury prone than CP3 at this point in his career.

    Lin coming off the bench here would be perfectly fine.

    Lin was recently sidelined by a strained lower back, but he returned Friday against Boston and suited up against the Nets, a game with added meaning.

    “I know him being back here, it’s very important for him to be here,” Hawks coach Lloyd Pierce said. “He obviously missed all of last year with the injury and getting traded to a new team, so I’m sure there’s a little motivation to play well.”

    I would rather get another forward any day than another guard.

    Jeremy Lin is already 30. "Linsanity" was seven years ago!? Years are flying by... Time is a real son of a b****.

    Maybe D'Atoni will help make Linsanity 2.0 from their time together with the Knicks. It better not be this year's 1st that we have to include to dump Knight.

    Despite potential drama by his fans, I'd welcome Lin back and I think he could be very useful off the bench. I don't think the deal happens, but Lin over Knight is a no brainer.

    Yep, we need to meet our Asian quota given our relationship to China.
