    If DMo gets injured for rest of season, and Shanghai consequently decides to cut Scola to start a youth movement and go for better draft pick ... that would be ... a Shark Tank.

    Only 40? Didn't other NBA rejects like Jimmer and Smush Parker have 60+ point games?

    It appears that Lin had made the decision to play for Beijing back in July:

    https://www.scmp.com/sport/basketba...as-beijing-ducks-july-even-though-euro-league

    "Lin’s marketing CEO Patricia Sun said that Lin was going to post on Chinese video site Douyin to announce the decision.
    “They called me mid-July and he was like ‘Let’s just do CBA. I’m gonna put this on Douyin.’ And I was just like ‘OK, wait, wait, wait, let’s have some conversations with teams first and let’s weigh out the options and see what’s going on.’”

    Lin said that he was made offers from teams in Russia, Israel and the Euro League, which he was advised to consider.

    “My agent said if you really want to return to the NBA the best way is with these very good Euro League teams,” he said. But that was not the path he chose.

    “We’ve known that it probably wouldn’t be Europe, even if Europe gives us a better chance to go back to the NBA. I think he knows that,” Sun explained. “China is the best next step,” she said."

    ? It said that he had offers from teams in Russia, Israel and the Euro League but turned them down. So the translation should be: Lin doesn't give a damn about Euros.

    Read your own article. Lin's agent was overruled by some marketing consultant. Euros don't need Lin to get past any feelings of emasculation so he's much more marketable in China.
