All ego. Plain and simple, Melo wants to be THE man. Jeremy Lin had his run while Stat and Melo were on that bench, and all of a sudden the Knicks were winning and the Garden was buzzing. I'm sure Melo felt a certain way because this was all happening while he wasn't on the court. You got a guy who was just cut who is now being mentioned as the savior of what is supposedly YOUR team. I'm sure he was a little salty.

Miss me with the business reasons. This nikka Lin was making the Knicks some serious paper. Even if they were lined up to pay a hefty luxury tax, that would have be offset by what Lin would make them, assuming he was a 15-point, 8-assist, 3-TO guy. Now they have no Lin and will be competing with that new team in town. Will see how this works out for basketball and business reasons.

regarding what? the fact that this team never wanted to bring back Lin? I saw it...if you want to cover your ears and scream that's on you.

Yeah and I also see that Lin barely got interest in the open market either. This isn't some Dolan inspired conspiracy. Whole lot of people in the NBA have question marks about him too.

Dolan doesn't care about money. If Lin is let go it's cause they dont think he's that good period. Has nothing to do with Melo.

If its ego why has Melo been saying he wants lin back in the last few interviews, when he could have easily just said some bullshyt like " at the end of the day whatever happens happens"?

If it's ego why did Melo have no problem with lin having the rock before he got hurt, melo avg 14 shots a game til lin and stat got hurt....why did he have no problem with that reduced role..if its his ego?

cmon man. we saw it. They chased Nash. Signed Kidd. Woodson would never commit to him last season.

Once Lin got hurt he was basically done with the organization and vice versa.
