LA Times 关于林和Boozer 对坐板凳不同反应的报道

http://www.latimes.com/sports/lakers/la-sp-lakers-fyi-20141217-story.html

 It wasn't a pretty sight when Jeremy Lin and Carlos Boozer lost their starting jobs.  Lin was crushed, immediately requesting a sit-down with Lakers Coach Byron Scott and morosely calling the demotion "one the toughest situations I've been in."Boozer went the other direction, angrily ditching a postgame interview session with reporters and subsequently bending the ear of Lakers General ManagerMitch Kupchak about Scott's decision.Their on-court contributions have also been at opposite extremes since the change.Boozer has improved radically, averaging 15.2 points and 10.2 rebounds while shooting 54.2% and earning praise from Scott.

Lin has slumped badly, averaging six points and 4.6 assists while shooting an abysmal 28.6%.Even Scott didn't have an answer for Lin's inconsistency, which hit another low Monday when he missed all six of his shots in a 110-91 loss to the Indiana Pacers."I don't know. He's just been up and down," Scott said. "Sometimes he has nights like this." Lin, 26, feels more and more like a one-year rental for the Lakers. Hailed as a possible solution to their point guard woes when he was acquired in July, a lot would have to happen for him to return after becoming a free agent next July.

The Lakers knew they weren't acquiring a defensive stopper from Houston but were willing to put up with Lin's weaknesses as long as he looked OK on offense. He hasn't.“This is one of those games where you kind of wish you had it back," Lin said after Monday's loss. "My regret isn't with my effort. My regret is with the performance,  whether it's hitting shots, making plays, all those things."Not that his replacement is doing better on offense. Ronnie Price is averaging 2.4 points and 2.8 assists since joining the starting lineup. Price's defense is superior to Lin's, though, Despite paying Lin $14.9 million this season, the Lakers aren't completely bereft if he doesn't pan out. They also acquired Houston's 2015 first-round pick in the trade.
