Whatever article/writer you are referring to, it was published before the last two games against the Pacers and I doubt there will be a "Lin might be better off the bench" discussion anytime soon the way the Knicks are playing right now. Maybe they just got tired of D'Antoni's teeth or something. Right now, it's a win-win situation for Lin (or call it a Lin-Lin situation, if you want...). If the Knicks start losing again, the blame is still on Amare and Melo, if they keep winning it's because of Lin's play-making. He will continue to be the first choice at PG because Davis is flashy but unreliable, Bibby is old and Shumpert is young.
