    Really hope Lin doesn't get matched and Asik does. Would be the complete opposite of what we expected, but would work out better for us.

    Honest to god I hope they won't match, if Lin comes to Houston we'll at least get some national recognition for once (at the most undeserving time too)

    Lin/Howard PnR
    Howard drops into the low post
    reset
    Lin/DMo PnP
    DMo fades out to the corner
    reset
    Howard/White up high double picks
    Lin passes to White
    Lin fades to the corner
    White in triple threat
    White/Dwight PnR
    pitch out to Parsons
    Parsons drives and finishes
    or
    Parsons dishes to DMo in the corner
    Swish/swish/swish/swish/swish


    Lin/Parsons/White/Howard/DMo

    Git it on, man!

    I wasn't expecting much from the start. Anything gained is house money. Won't be mad if they still do.

    Bimathug:

    I understand Bima's point, but couldn't NY just be petty and wanted to make us wait the full 3 days as a slight payback? If they declined to match immediately, we could have moved right along to Asik and then the Howard trade.

    Poor Dolan. We all feel so sorry for him. He's had such a hard life.

    Expect the worst, Rockets fans. Knicks is definitely out to counter-troll Morey

    Marc Stein: Also told Rockets, even if they unexpectedly land Lin AND Omer Asik, still think they've got Dwight trade offers (yes, plural) to please ORL

    I can't believe people are actually happy about this. This is a waist of money if I've ever seen one. Now all he has to do is trade the rest of the team for Howard and he's laying his own death bed. The Rockets are doomed to be trash for the foreseeable future.

    He said All-Star, not star. An All-Star is voted, and Lin WILL get votes

    Well if we don't get DH or AB Lin can put up 25pts on a very bad team, tour China with Yao, and make Les a boatload of cash. Shareef Abdur-Ralin

    I can't imagine how many allstar games Lin will be in.... as a STARTER. Fan votes will be crazy like Yao tmac era. Even when TMac was injured he was still starter.lololol
