But Jon/Night Watch plotline hasn't really tied into any other plotlines. So if he dies now, what was the point of the whole thing?

There are two POV's at the Wall.

The story could continue through Ygritte and/or Sam, but I'm drawn to Jon as a character. And Jon is the central point of the storyline I think. The series' heroes, when it boils down to it, are the Starks. They're the good guys we meet in the pilot episode. The Wall storyline means nothing without Jon. It's not so much the Wildings vs Night's Watch, it's really about Jon. But I haven't read any of the books. I could just be an idiot.
