What do you think, im mainly in with Lin for assists, and some steals and ft% both which Thomas can supply? I'm still not sure how good Lin will or won't play down the stretch.

I wouldn't drop him just yet, but picking up Thomas would be a great option with Lin out. Who is currently sitting on your bench? Perhaps there's someone else you can drop.

Agreed. I'd get Thomas if you could, but I'd advise against unloading Lin.

Depends how your matchup is going. You can wait if you're winning but Lin is iffy for next week and he onlyhave 3 games next week anyways. Thomas has 5. I'd make the move personally. I actually just dropped Lin for Nate Rob in one league. It's the playoffs and health is huge.

PG's: Lawson, Dragic, Calderon, Lin
SG's: Ginobili, Thornton
SF's: Deng
PF/C's: Love, P. Gasol, Gortat, McGee, Anderson, Thompson
should i drop Thompson? Lin? I would have 5 PG's if i dropped Thompson, feels unecessary

Via Wiretap he's out for 6 weeks, so releasing him would be a no-brainer at this point.
http://www.nj.com/knicks/index.ssf/2012/03/knicks_point_guard_jeremy_lin.htmlKnicks point guard Jeremy Lin has a "small, chronic meniscal tear," in his left knee, the team announced prior to Saturday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. He will require an arthroscopy and be out approximately six weeks.
"I had an MRI after the Detroit game on Monday and it showed I had a lateral meniscus tear, so our goal was to give it about five to seven days to see how it would react and to see if I could play on it for the rest of the season," said Lin, who missed the three games following the win over the Pistons last Saturday.
Lin knew surgery was inevitable, so he spent the past week avoiding questions about his knee while he tested the joint to see if it could withstand another month or so of activity.
