    I know most if not all of us here are Rockets fans, but I thought it was real classy of him to tell the kid to continue rooting for the Knicks. Shows that Jeremy really has no bitter feelings at all toward the Knicks, despite the tension the media tries to create between him and Melo, Dolan, and the Knicks in general.

    I thought it was very cruel and insensitive of him. Why would you tell anyone to be a Knicks fan, let alone a 5 year old?

    Cold and malicious.

    Haha I suppose that is one way to look at it. Lifelong suffering builds character! Or not.

    Looks like the kid's family will get the League Pass to watch Rockets games, so there's a good chance they will come over to our side.

    Why does Dwight Howard hate this 5-yr-old little boy?

    Thank you very much for sharing, just proves that he is totally class. So glad he is on the Rockets now and can't wait to watch the Rockets surprise the NBA again with their young players.

    Jeremy is golden for doing this, especially with his super busy schedule. Shows the type person he is.

    Does anyone else think that there should be just one thread for all stuff related to Lin ?

    Great idea! We need more room to talk about important topics like JR Bremer and Gary Forbes.

    @zoids No problem, happy to share.

    @nono One thread for JLin stuff might not be a good idea; we'll probably be looking at a thread with 1000+ pages by the time the season starts. Might be difficult to find stuff with a thread that long.

    At 5 years old, the kid is so mad at dumb Dolan and the Knicks that he's switched over and is now a Nets fan. LOL If I were a Knicks fan, I would switch too after all the stupid decisions that Dolan has made over the years. This works out perfectly for the Nets - just in time for their grand opening of the Barclays Center where DWill and the Nets are likely going to kick the Knicks butts in the opening game. Still love Tyson, Novak, and Shump though...
