    For the right price I'd take him as out back-up PG - could do a lot worse.

    If you're rebuilding with young guys, the veterans you get should be guys who they can look up to and can bring some excitement to games for the fans. Lin could be that, and could also throw in some much-needed points at times.

    With Lillard defense I don't think we need an offensive PG. I'd want a player that can lock down an opponent PG even if he sucks offensively. We could use an offensive wing or big though.

    Don't you want a shot at an all star starter? Think about it. Rip city and all of China combining forces to become a superpower.

    Sounds awesome

    Still seems like a pretty pointless thing to say.
