As @WojYahooNBA reported, Lin offer sheet for 4 years, the 4th at team option. Similar to deal Goran Dragic turned down.
So yeah Knicks probably already matched.

:dead:
All of his %'s are far better than those guys, and he is actually a good catch and shoot guy. Good foil along side dragic.
Not seeing him for a full season obviously tarnishes everything. I'm sold on him though. But getting him may just prevent us getting the complimentary player we need.
Well, it's probably worth the risk anyway.

Again, every indication I've gotten is that Knicks will match, even though offer is backloaded in a way to make it harder. Yahoo! first
How would they pull this off? I wonder how creative Wizard got here.

Shit, Knicks will make a billion off Lin next season alone.
4 for 30? 5/5/10/10.
And really, you're still calling him The Wizard? Even Rockets-GAF has forsaken him.

Morey can't even screw the Knicks right. Pathetic.
Just heard the Gordon news. That's fine, I dont want people here who don't want to be here.
It's just weird hearing him whine about us drafting a guard. The guy sat in on the workouts and even highly complimented rivers.
Such a bizarre offseason in New Orleans. Just when I thought we were on the up and up our best player wants to bolt.......to the suns no less. No offense to the suns but it's just such a bizarre situation and rationale Gordon has going on right now. The way Gordon is making it sound is like Phoenix is a soon to be contender because of beasley and dragic and the hornets aren't shit despite a great coach and what many scouts think is a once in a decade type talent.

That's a poison pill? I think they need to hire Isiah Thomas as a consultant.

Is he even the starter with Kidd?

The Jason Kidd could be a S&T, which preserves the $3 million exception. Again, as long as they not ridiculously over the cap the luxury tax hit won't be a huge issue.
... seriously?
I don't disagree, i think the hornets, if they kept Gordon are done with the bottoming out of their Rebuild, and are looking only to win from here on out. Assuming their draft picks work out anyway.
I feel we're still about a year away from making any real noise for the playoffs but were not far off.
Oh well, top three pick here we come again!

The silver lining is that trading him will at least net you an asset or two, you'll also likely be drafting in the top 7 again next year if he isn't on the roster.

Thanks Houston... Their dumb GM can't even do the "poison pill" right.
Oh yeah, you weren't play off ready, but a year, and another couple solid mid 1st round picks. If you're lucky maybe another top 5 to round out the roster.
Now? maybe 2 years.
It's so odd about how much he wants out of NOH.
I can only assume there is a lot more to it thats not coming out.

Jazz just gave Jeremy Evans 5.5 million United States dollars.
He's awesome, but he played around 30 minutes last season and it wasn't due to injury, wtf.

Joe Johnson's contract will still exist.
Haven't you been hyping him up to no end since he's been drafted?
I'd love another first rounder and a decent player or two but I wonder what we can realistically get for a sign and trade.
No, the trade would have set the franchise back a long time had it gone through.

Yeah, but the team never plays him ever. They seem to think his team role is bench warmer so why give him four times more than the league minimum?

... they kinda don't have a choice. Either it's used to sign Kidd, or they use a portion of the $3 mill for someone else.
This. Forever this.
Yep. Lakers and NO ended up okay but it's just killed the Rockets

If it's to the Suns not much unfortunately.
edit: what giri suggested isn't terrible actually.
Not really. With the assumption that they also got nene they could've had a top 4 team in west and good

The fallout from that trade not going through? You're seeing it now. Morey would've satisfied his hard on for a star and this bs wouldn't be happening.
I guess they have big plans in store!

All meaning a single playoff series, right?

$28.8M over four years is J-Lin's contract
