Lin earned his keep for both NBA teams.

Lin might as well grow a beard and carry a staff. Apparently he's destined to wander through the NBA, being endlessly chased out of the cities Carmelo wants to play in.

Morey commented on the lin situation

quote:

It's always a challenging situation during free agency. You are always having to recruit players and there might be current players at current positions, might be people with the current numbers. It's unfortunate that it's often hard to handle. Reality is it's standard practice. When we went after Chris Bosh a few years ago, we had him in Luis Scola's number. When we went after Dwight Howard he had [Patrick] Beverley's number. I get the sensitivity and I hate that it creates some hurt feelings. I don't like that, but that's obviously Carmelo Anthony's number, that's the number he wants. He told us that. Bottomline, if Carmelo comes Omer Asik and Jeremy Lin have to be traded. It's just math. It's not personal. My job is every day [to] figure out how to win. Sometimes it creates challenging situations.

I agree with everything he said. Lin has been a pretty solid sixth man, outside of that role he's just been kinda meh. Bottom-line is his contract is too big for him to stay if Melo or any free agent is to come and just about any free agent out there is more valuable than him. It's just business.

Also go figure this thread was started by a pellie...

Why wouldn't Carmelo just go back to #15 at his next stop, wherever that may be? He's won an NCAA National Championship, a bronze Olympic medal and two Olympic gold medals wearing that number.
