Its weird though.. Lin has been shooting the ball extremely efficient since jan 1st, johnson has been solid too, nick young was in a small slump for a 3 games and they all got somewhat demoted lol.
More likely just released. The balloon payment contract is hard to trade, and the Lakers are unlikely to be willing to take back a non-expiring salary in any trade (other than one for a star, which they don't have the assets to complete) because they harbor dreams of getting a star player in free agency with their cap room (hahahahahah!).
for january (11 games) hes averaging 11/4, shooting 47% and 47% from 3 in 23 mpg best for the lakers to just waive him cause 1)not in long term plans 2)I assume Lin wants to play basketball
Remember that 1 million page thread when McHale said Lin needs to chill on the homerun plays. If Linnites went crazy about that... I wonder how they're feeling now lmao.
I think it's obvious Scott thinks he's a p***y and has no respect for his game. The benching has been a long time coming.
