I don't really follow the Knicks like that but I can say I've been following the Lin story so I really don't agree with this at all. Lin has proven that he can carry the Knicks to victory without the stars so why put in Davis over him? Maybe they're going to treat Lin like the "secret weapon" and bring him in as a strong 6th man. Nonetheless I think he should be starting regardless because to me he sets the mood and speed of the game well. Something that a lot of players in the league don't do.
Just saw on ESPN that D'Antoni claims when Baron Davis comes back he will get his starting spot back over Lin. I can't imagine how loud the boos will be in NY if this actually happens. Thoughts?
I agree. Not only is Lin getting it done and winning games, but he has an entire city behind him right now. If you take that away from him and put him on the bench, every ounce of momentum that the Knicks have developed over the past two weeks will instantly be dead.
A place to debate everything and anything!
