    Well after a nice lunch and a bit of a lie down.

    I'm going to change my answer to no.

    But he's really underachieving. Because I think he's capable of so much more.

    If we can get rid of the Lin Fan boys then I say trade him for a bag of chips.

    It is because McHale's offense does not need a PG. He does not want to see PnR, that's why you don't see any lop. He need people who can nail a 3s from the arc

    I'm 100 percent sure the Knicks don't want Lin back.

    McHale was a HOF big.

    Show up offensively instead of disappearing for long stretches.

    Lin has had to change his game the most after Harden joined. But he has been doing whatever the coach has asked him to do for the team.

    It doesn't matter how much potential you have when your coach does not want your to succeed.

    He isn't.

    In any case, I see Mchale being ousted first before Lin. Morey already said it himself that Lin would be one of the players who form the Rocket's core, and from a profit-loss perspective, makes more sense to keep Lin for the marketing dollars.

    Uh, Parsons and Harden are also very turnover prone. Guess we should bench them too "when we can't afford" one.

    Beverley is more experienced than Lin is. He has played pro basketball in europe for 5 seasons and he was an euro cup MVP

    but McHale said he doesn't want Lin to score.

    and when he does get hot and starts scoring McHale will bench him for the next 20 minutes. he got after Lin scored 29 on OKC.

    I don't understand why people want Lin to get special treatment. The only player on the team that deserves playing time regardless of what kind of game he is having is Harden.
