This Lin business in unbelievable to me. I can name 20 PGs I'd take over him. Freaking rockets let 2 better PGs go so they could overpay him. I don't get it lol

Lowry = first round draft pick
Dragic = wanted player option

Both these impact the rebuilding plan.

 

[squicken]

I think it was both to be honest.

Morey is talking up his skills and growth potential, but I don't see it. I guess as long as he's okay it will help them sell jerseys. People forgot that Shane Battier of all people had a shoe deal b/c of Yao

Waitaminute...

after ALL OF GAF virtually said Lin was a scrub on the Knicks and overrated (LOL KNICKS), now that Lin is gone suddenly he's an All-Star PG and the Knicks fucked it up (LOL KNICKS)?

Maybe I missed it but no one has said he's an all-star PG. I'm not sure I've seen a Rockets fan who think it's a fair valued deal. The reason people are laughing at the Knicks is it seems to make no sense from a on-court or cap/tax management perspective. You let an asset go for nothing

 

[giga]

Felton at $10 mil for 3 yrs is better than Nash at $27 mil at their ages

 

[The Frankman]

Fuck it.

Felton/Smith/Anthony/Stoudemire/Chandler with Kidd/White/Novak/Thomas/Camby in the second unit, and Shumpert coming back. If that's my team, then that's who I ride with.

Knicks are winning the Eastern Conference this year. They'll do it with defense, naturally.

That's what I want to hear, my man. Just gotta ride it out.

If Felton wasn't around, they sign Lin. For some reason, they like Felton. And yeah, it does make some sense from a tax management perspective. Not alot, but some.

I'd agree there, won't spew unrealistic things yet, offseason was meh...

Laugh all you want but Felton looked like a star with Amare and Gallo. He would look even better with Kobe and those bigs

 

[darkside31337]

....

Also Lin is an all star point guard. He could play miss the entire first half of the season with a foot injury and would still make it.

That Dwight pic makes me sick to my stomach.

 

[Dominican Power]

Me too...if only because I need all the good eastern conference teams I can get.


Can't be making playoffs and shit with Kwame Brown....just can't do it.


This year, we tank in hell.

Nick Young will make sure of that.

I would be surprised if the Knicks make it to third in the Atlantic.

LOL Konex I was joking about naming 20... sorry about that. I don't think much of Lin, well I haven't really since we cut him. I'm curious to see if he's legit for a whole season.

I still don't agree with you at all with Nash/Felton, but everyone already went over that and slammed you so I won't say anymore hah

[BobLoblaw]

The size of his U.S. Market means almost nothing compared to what he's going to get from Asia. As for being on a team that can only dream of the playoffs, well that's not exactly a huge downgrade from the 1 playoff win in a decade Knicks.

Playoffs is playoffs mang. He's not seeing any for a good while. But you are right on the Asian market thing. Still, would you rather be a superstar in Houston or New York?

You see it.

 

[Smokey]

This is a frequently seen inaccurate statement. Lowry netted a guaranteed lottery pick. If Morey could have bought one of those for $25m he would have. Lowry is/was part of Howard pursuit.

He tried to sign Dragic. Didn't just let him go. Question now is did he overpay Lin for business reasons or b/c he was desperate for a PG.

Don't try and counter argue with logic

 

[victreeb3l]

okay im over the lin thing. no use feeling sad about this shit any longer. heres hoping for a better season this year

This offseason has been crazy so far. Hope the season will be as fun to watch.

I hope Lin does well in Houston. Can't hate on the guy.

I know what I would rather have, but I don't think it'll be too bad for him especially if they can pull of the Dwight trade. At least he'll get good minutes in Houston since he won't have to play with Kidd and Felton.

...And Kyrie Irving only played 11 games in college. It's about the eye test as well. Lin is clearly better than Felton/Kemba/Hill/etc. You also imply that a Kemba/Hill/Augstin/etc. have put up comparable numbers in more games, which is blatantly false.

Or Boston and the Nets.

Wayne Ellington got traded

Yeah, but I think Minnesota got the better end of the deal. Cunningham was high energy and a solid perimeter defender. Plus, never forget how he paid Blake Griffin back.

[cacophony]

someone who met Parsons

Parsons: Are ya'll excited about Jeremy Lin being a Rocket?
Me: Yeah, we just heard about it when we got off the flight.
Parsons: Now I get to hang out with more Asian chicks


lol

 

[captmcblack]

I hope the boos are lusty at the Garden when Lin comes to play.
I hope Kurt Thomas, Camby, Chandler and friends blow him up when he comes in the paint.
This is a shit sandwich, but not irredeemable - if we double down on the defense thing we started last year, if we get back to the old Knicks identity of legit defensive play, we will survive. We will thrive, even.

 

[Kevtones]

Nolan Smith is lucid and has been diagnosed a concussion. Glad to hear he's okay and he's looked really nice so far in the SL.

Meyers Leonard got abused down low but some of that's on Babbitt. Leonard kept helping because Babbitt was so shitty. Still on board with him.

Lillard played well and im still wild about his ability to change pace/speed.

Will Barton looked great tonight. His shot is rough but he once again showed his versatility doing a little of everything. Love his vocal style.

I say it's 50/50 the fans will be booing the Knicks when Lin returns... To many players expressed their real opinions on Lins contract not to get some heat for it.
