It is the promise of Linsanity, the hope that at last our PG savior is here, those 10 magical games, that would devastate us if Dolan lets him go (make no mistake, this is Dolan’s call.) But it is only a promise, not a reality. This is a HUGE gamble for Dolan, or honestly, any rational businessman, a $50+ million roll of the dice on what may turn out to be a middling, injury-prone PG with serious holes in his game. Is there any concrete reason to believe that Lin will be $50 million better than Prigioni for the next 2 years?

I will be distraught if we don’t match Lin, but by no means was I convinced that he was a sure thing.

We need a plan what about foye !!!!!!

My plan will consist of scouring NBA rosters and identifying a team I want to root for that won’t make me cry.

Rockets found loophole that would cost them $8 million on third year of Lin offer sheet and Knicks $15 million, source tells Y! Sports.

Lets be honest, you really think Howard gives a shit about playing with Lin?? He probably thinks Lin is a fluke like the majority of the players most likely think to be perfectly honest.

Oh, totally. But Houston’s position is “Come here and you will be surprised by how much you like it.” Lin is a part of that. Howard will be shocked by how much he likes playing with Lin.

Also, is there a way to work out a sign and trade if we don’t want to match?

No.

This is probably the last straw for me as well with the Knicks. At least I’ll have another team to root for in the Nets with the Knicks trying so eagerly to rid itself of every element that made the last season worth watching.
