Jeremy Lin: I talk to Yao after every game, he's a big mentor

Big praise from Magic

in other news the Oakland A's traded Trevor Cahill to the Diamondbacks. We are 16-11 without Lin btw.......

 

Wow, what a press conference. Jeremy Lin IS for real!

 

You are partly wrong sir. Morey did hims a HUGE favor by letting him go to New York.

However, Morey did admit and own to the fact that he did regret the cut of Jeremy Lin.

Face it, his impact has created joy and anguish for everyone. As a rocket fan, it *****in sucks!

 

Dayum Magic looks good after his HIV past

 

LOL, if you mean what he posted on Twitter. Then I'd say Morey regrets answering any questions on Lin and on doing a unmoderated Q&A.

He was just appeasing some Lin fans but literally moments after that was put up it was retweeted by TrueHoop with all the other media jumping in and spinning it way too much.

 

Everybody is saying Morey made a mistake. At least he could see something in him and brought him here when we were already loaded with PG's. Every other team had two chances to pick him up and missed on it except NY.

 

dude he still has HIV. you know they don't have a cure for it. But Magic has enough money to get the best doctors and medication.

 

That was a knock on the Franchise and his 60 year old face.

 

This guy is awesome.

 

The only thing it proves is that no lottery team picked him, when the Rockets submitted a claim. When multiple teams make a waiver claim, the worst team wins. The Celtics made a waiver claim, but they were beat by the Rockets losing record.

exactly... who can say NO to a big market...

 

Morey and McHale know they screwed up... and at the end of the day it was about money like always but Morey has to keep up the lie that it is more about making this team better versus maximizing Les Alexander's wealth. Morey might not be as great as some think he is to do both (money and championship.)

 

Well that makes all the other gm's ignorant and Morey stupid because he had Lin in his hands and cut him loose...

 

The reason this thread was started was because he was talking about *yao* if he was talking about somebody else i would understand being pissed off about it. Its so stupid how people get on little band wagon gangs one here with the "Stop the J lin threads!!" and shi*t really chill out this is a fans forum, people take this stuff way to far. Its cool to hear him talk about yao and is thread worthy.

 

Hey have you guys heard about this kid lin in new york? i think he used to play for the rockets...havent seen a thread about it yet tho.

 

hmm, he said we are becoming a more dangerous basketball team as we play team ball. Somewhere, Melo cant be all that happy right now. Fear the big beard Baron too. The Knics situation will be a drama, bank on it.

 

He's big sizewise?

Or he's big as in he gives good mentoring advice?

 

It's not a Jeremy Lin thread. It's a Yao thread.

 

Yao is big.

Literally.
