Lin is our Asia ad sales rep of the future. They should make him a combo 3rd string backup point guard / Asian marketing exec.
Lin as a 6th man is good but better yet he would be great as a starter...... for the shanghai sharks!
Lin is playing at his max level. Yes he sucks but he is worth it just for the Asian ad revenue and interest he creates.
short term bev, long term bev. keep lin to sell ads and work in the pr dept for asian marketing.

Wow, Houston we have a chance now! Lin is benched.

Bev and Harden to start 2nd half. Lin to sit the rest of the game and we'll have a chance.
Lin is out there for ad and pr purposes. He's not out there for defense, 3pt shooting or scoring like the other players are. It's like 4 on 5.
Lin is out there only for advertising and PR purposes.

I think Delfino can play PG better than Lin.
Lin's TOs are worse than the other player's TO's because they lead to definite baskets for the other team.
Agreed, my vote for thread of the year. Trade Lin for Fisher in the offseason.
This is the truth. The PR stunt is over with, keep Lin as a 3rd stringer so Les can keep his Chinese in-game ads running, but let's get a real PG...
