    Source with knowledge of Knicks' thinking: "They will match any offer on Lin up to 1 billion dollars"

    Yes it's lame. But no worry. Lin is not coming. NYK would mortgage the Madison Square Garden if it is necessary to resign Lin because of the potential market that he can help the team to open up.

    If we are going to tank, this is the right move.
    At least more people will go watch the Rockets, and who knows he might pull Linsanity again.

    Yeah, but you gotta make sure the player don't starve to death by the 4th year. Rember Latrel Sprewell?

    This move is Lin-win. Either we get Lin or we screw NY.

    So the idea is that the Knicks ownership will put the team in luxury cap hell and keep Lin around as a disgruntled rotation player to sell jerseys to Asians?
