George Lynch is a lot better than Nailon, just because he doesn't score 10 ppg, he does EVERYTHING else that Nailon doesn't do. He rebounds, defends, take charges, is aggressive, and hustles. Kirk Haston is also an up and comer that is expected to get 10-15 mpg. Baron Davis didn't have such a good rookie season either as how Silas likes to bring rookies around slowly.
Lynch was also outplaying Nailon in both camp and pre-season, so why keep a guy who is bad for lockerroom chemistry?? Esp. when he is just the 3rd string SF, he played no defense, something Silas preaches, and had no salary value. He wasn't even drafted so everything he did for the organization was a bonus.
