fukk it. Hopefully we have something planned with ray to flip him at the deadline because I'm really not high on him at all.

A couple of questions do you think the rockets really wanted Lin ? Oe were trying to fukk us? And did Lin want to come back ? I don't think he did

Both.

Morey wanted Lin. I'm not sure McHale's all that in love with the idea of signing Lin, but short term, Lin's gonna get people interested in what Houston's doing, even if they're still a treadmill team. It'll put butts in seats, and they haven't done that since the Yao days.

secondly, I think Lin wanted to come back, but he was done with "Linsanity." He probably figured that with a new season, actual expectations, the craze would die down and he could just be the Knicks' PG. I could understand that because even during Linsanity, he didn't seem to be having that much fun with it. He looked overwhelmed.

Not one time have we heard from Lin saying he wants to stay a knick which is a red flag to me . I think Houston gives him the ability to be a star without the work and pressure

Still no official confirmation from Knicks on whether they are passing on Jeremy Lin. Appears to be a formality at this point

Sam Amick ‏@sam_amick

The Rockets have not yet received word on whether the Knicks are matching their three-year, $25.1 million offer
