I would have rather had Lin than Rautins

This is from Truehoop's SL recap:

Harvard graduate Jeremy Lin might be the most fearless driver in Summer League. He goes straight to the rim, and isn't afraid to take contact when he does. His and-1 while being taken down by Larry Sanders was one of the best plays of the week.

If you are a member of the Boston Celtics, and you play summer league, you'll be on Boston's team. If you are not currently signed to any NBA team, a team might just sign you for their summer league team, and you're trying to get signed to a real, regular season NBA contract from any team in the league, including the team that you're playing summer league for.

He's up for grabs... we should sign this guy.

Got a couple of steals, does not get pressured when bringing up the ball... tries to make the right play. He can seem a little overmatched but it might just be him getting used to the NBA game. McHale was liking the kid too, for what it's worth.

Saw parts of last night's game, this kid was doing work! Pretty decent handle, fearless going to the hole. I dare Dallas not to sign him. He'll be gone in a heartbeat! Did I say he came out of Harvard? Grab this guy.

Zach Harper of Hardwood Paroxysm on the John Wall-Jeremy Lin fourth quarter battle: "Funny thing happened on the way to the Bellagio … Jeremy Lin and John Wall faced off in the fourth quarter of the Wizards-Mavericks game in Vegas and pretty much played each other to a standstill. That’s right. An undrafted Harvard, SMAHRT kid, point guard went toe-to-toe with the number-one pick in the NBA draft and sort-of held his own. The final box score will show John Wall with an impressive 21 points (let’s just forget about the 4/19 shooting), 10 assists and seven rebounds. But it won’t show that the majority of the Lin’s 11 fourth quarter points were the result of him getting the better of the 'best player in the draft' for times than Wall will care to remember. Lin and Wall played the equivalent of an iso chess match on the hardwood game board. The kid from the Ivy League refused to back down from the YouTube sensation and while Wall walked away with the highlight reel, Lin walked away as the fan favorite."

Will be very disappointed if another team scoops him up. He would be perfect for this system.

The sleepers that I found--Lin Blakely wouldve been SO much better for the system we run--the Knicks wouldve walked out as stars--especially with Lin. did anyone catch a glimpse of Blakely last night?? These guys are bost super fast and athletic and both bring really nice assets to the court.

When I first started looking--I tried to keep my eyes on players who can get up and down--that is what I think the system is for--athletes who are fast athletic and have diverse skills. If we walked out with Blakely Lin Fields(Or Torrance) and Whiteside--the sentiment of our draft would be much higher. We easily could move to a Lin--they have all of the ability in the world to just flip it--but there is no chance NONE even if they KNOW its the right move--they wont do it.
