what you fail to mention about collison and conley, both guys I like, btw, are that they've had years of starting in the NBA. Not to mention been playing elite level basketball since college.
and thus far, 4 and 6 years in, they are what they are. and that's not bad.
Lin is an unknown. as I've stated, how bout you evaluate him fully all star break next year. after a full year where he sets a statistical baseline? after a full training camp w/ the new pieces?
I know we get all agenda-y and silly wit it, and that's fine, but it's too early to determine what Lin is off 60% of starts.
except for the fact that he doesn't suck. and isn't worth the money. that's pretty much done at this point.
