    It is official they gave Lin a bigger offer than Dragic - more butts in the seats is more important than building a winner.

    Seriously, at least Les and DM are more exposed, you don't offer more money to a guy coming off of surgery than to a guy in your own back yard unless you are really not in it to win it, but in it to cash out.

    Les Alexander and Donald Sterling have flipped places.

    Good good. I hope he can withstand the Knicks match now. So we might have Asik and might have Lin now. Finally something.

    Could it possibly be that they think Lin is better? Also it could be that Dragic signing else where has left Houston more desperate and thus willing to spend more.

    It would be stupid for Lin not to sign the deal but again NY will probably match it...
