I'm interested to see what Lin can do matched up against on ball defenders like Rondo, Paul, Teague, Tony Allen, etc. Those are a good group of players but it is obvious the Heat exposed his weakness. As much of a great story it is, I think he gives the Knicks a sense of false hope. You need defense to win championships. Jeremy Lin does not have that, nor Melo. Iman Shupert does and so does Chandler, so those guys need to get more time in games against better opponents (i.e. Heat) if they expect to make a playoff run.
Also, I disagree with Lin in that interview when he says he was overlooked because of "the way he looks." It was actually his first answer and I find that wrong in many ways.
