Lin will be fine. He and Howard complement each other. It is Harden that will need to adjust (less shots - less hugging, less stats focus - more team oriented).

Brandon Jenning is asking for 12 million/year. Are there people still arguing that Lin is overpaid? How many starting point guards are paid less than Lin that's not on a rookie contract. Lin will do fine.

With the exception of Conley, who is probably underpaid, Lin is performing on par or better than everyone on that list.
