You right about that, but it's the system that helped him shine the way he did. Same circumstances w/ Larry Brown as coach and Lin still on the bench even if he got that playing time

If the report is true..
Lin needs to man up and respect the business side. He could've laced up his kicks and contributed in the playoffs when he said he was 85% healthy, but he wanted to protect his free agency.
Now he's salty that Grunwald let the market set the price instead of showing his hand?
Dude can't have it both ways. Maybe he would've received an offer from Grunwald first if he would've gutted it out against the Heat.
Just sign on the dotted line.

SHOOTING FOR A BARGAIN
Once all of the deals are officially completed, the Knicks will have at least three more roster spots to fill to have a full team. The need for depth at shooting guard is a priority -- though free agent signee James "Flight" White will get a shot at being a wing defender at the 2 and 3 spots -- and the market may reveal some interesting names available for the veteran's minimum or for the $2 million the Knicks can offer in a sign-and-trade for Dan Gadzuric's non-guaranteed contract.
A few candidates available:
Mickeal Pietrus: He is expected to re-sign with the Boston Celtics, especially in the wake of Avery Bradley's shoulder surgeries, which are expected to have him out for a bulk of the coming season. Pietrus would fit perfectly in the 2 and 3 spots for the Knicks, but he's regularly mentioned how returning to Boston is his intention and there's little chance the Celtics would entertain a sign-and-trade to help him to New York.
O.J. Mayo: The Knicks had strong interest in Mayo with their mini MLE after it seemed Kidd was set on returning to Dallas. Mayo would fit well behind Smith at the shooting guard spot and would provide scoring off the bench and defense. But with teams out there that have cap space (Mavericks, for one) it's highly unlikely Mayo will be gotten for as little as $2 million via sign-and-trade.
Randy Foye: Several teams are interested in him, with the Rockets, Suns and Bucks among teams that can give him more money. But if he's interested in being part of a team that has a chance to win big, New York may be a team for him to come at a discount for a year and test the market again next summer.
Courtney Lee: The Celtics have recruited him hard since Ray Allen left and with Bradley out for an extended period of time, Boston could be a good fit for him. Knicks have him on the radar.
Matt Barnes: Former Knick is still one of the league's toughest perimeter defenders but he's lost some athleticism and his offense isn't consistent. Still, would be a very good depth addition and add another experienced veteran to the group.
C.J. Miles: Inconsistency has dimished his potential, but New York could provide him with just the right opportunity to restart his career after some disappointing years in Utah. Miles comes from the same Dallas high school (Skyline) as Larry Johnson.
Marco Belinelli: Very one-dimensional player who gives almost no emotion, but when he gets hot, he can hit threes and stretch the floor. Impossible to see him succeed under Woodson's demanding style of coaching.
Elsewhere:
The Knicks are expected to add at least one more forward for Woodson's rotation. Two names to watch are Kenyon Martin and Jared Jeffries. It is doubtful both players will sign here, but the intention is to get one of them. Jeffries brings terrific defensive instincts, while Martin is much more physical and can still finish around the basket while also providing a defensive presence at the rim.

The Knicks Fix: Win Now or Worry Later for Knicks
I'll take KMart and Courtney Lee. Prefer Mayo but I agree with his assessment in this post.
Hmm sounds little like Lin trying to spin , don't want to be cynical but the probably makes me suspicious
Clem
Get out my way, pimpin'.
I'm not saying whether it was true or not but it's not like Lin would admit that it was true.
