Bravo!! Perfect!! Big three (Best scorer + Best Center + Future Best SG) plus past two "The 6th men". Wow. The dream Rockets team. On top of that LOF + COF + BOV + AOF will be long gone. Only True Houston Rockets Fans stay.
Yes. That explains it. Its the Californians that are raiding this board. The irony here is that a number of Lin fans are quick to pull race card when in fact a big reason they are a fan of Lin is because of his *gasp* race.
I'm a LOF and not ashamed of it. Have nothing against the Rockets, but Lin going to another team would please most parties. Rockets will be fine without Lin, as like how many LOHs point out, he just overlaps with Harden too much and Beverly is a better fit with Harden. I guess many would-be suitors might be put off by his contract but he still put up decent overall figures last season despite recovering from knee injury at the start of last season, accounting for a slow start, but his stats and wage level are well within reasonibility for a solid performing starting PG and he's showing signs now he's getting back to Linsanity levels of fitness, so it might be time to cash in on him, from a Rockets perspective, if he continues his excellent preseason form, and a team is on the lookout for a playmaking PG before the trade deadline shuts.
So basically switch teams with New York. The Knicks would become the Rockets, and then we would be the ones getting destroyed.
The Market for the Houston Rockets is the first and foremost, HOUSTON , TX, then it's the rest of the world. Your logic is quite wrong. Tupac was born in New York City, but he got California love. Think about Tupac, that guy was real.
Why are they on this board if they know this board is made primarily for die hard Rockets fans? Fans of the Rockets. Fans of the team rich in 40 plus years of tradition. Fans of an eternal and superior intellect known as Clutch and crew. Fans of a city that's was built on the sweat and guts of the 94 team, known as Clutch City. As a Rockets fan,to me Linsanity was like chewing on a tator tot, it was satisfying. But Clutch City is a 10 course meal at Joel Robuchon or going to Spain and dining at El Bulli. Rockets fans like Jeremy Lin because he's a Rocket and he hasn't done any McGrady like selfish acts and is known to be a nice dude who loves his family and his church group. The funny thing is that insecure fans call racism on the team that was known to have the best Asian basketball player of all time, Yao MFKing Ming? "Oh he wasn't Asian American?!" What kind of dumb crap is that? This must be the population of fans who are stupid.
Clutch doesn't care about traffic. He built the arc for rockets fans. As long as the world has rockets fans, this boat will survive any weather. Because clutch city is forever. In star wars they call it the force.
I am not of Lin's "race" but I am a fan of his game and character. And there is no such thing as race in biology. These threads are despicable especially when driven by "true" Rockets fans. LOFs are irritating but the LOHs are a stain on society.
Leave already, you do not help Lin's cause on the Rockets whatsoever. And while you may prefer Lin on another team, that trade does not help the Rockets and this a Rockets forum. And while expectations are high for Lin in Houston, he plays with teammates he loves and who love him, on an offense that suits him (even tho not top 2 option) and a young up + coming team contending for a championship. So get your selfish crap out of here.
Why wait til he's traded? There's safe haven for you right now. http://www.jeremylinmania.com/forum/forum.php
Not that I believe in the existence of such fans in large numbers here, but let's suppose they do exist. And they really want to see Lin fail like fans who want to see Kobe fail or Dwight fail or Lebron fail(especially after the decision). You know, Schadenfreude. Do you really despite all these people? Seems to me with how successful tabloids are, there are many of these around.
Why are so many cluchfans obsessed with trading Lin. These threads are getting very bothersome. This thread cooks up some relationship between drafting Canaan and driving up Lin's value. This tenuos connection borders on the fantastic. A fantasy disconnected from reality.
They could be a single individual or a swarm, it would not change the fact that their ignorance and hate is a blight on humanity.
JR would throw the first punch. Dwight will foul out because of the matador defense. Melo would just sulk. McHale would quit. Morey would he fired.
