Yep, hope whitehead can use the time to really get some development in and get his jitters out.

I do see an improvement with his game every time he gets playing time so i think this Lin injury is not a complete waste of time.

Yeah, that't the way I've chosen to look at it. I still hope Lin doesn't miss much more than his 2 week minimum, but that time could give Whitehead a handful of games under his belt to calm him down a bit and jumpstart his development. With no idea if and when Vasquez would ever be healthy, this could really help us even this season, and definitely could help in the future because I just don't see Vasquez as any kind of long term solution to the backup point guard role.
