    Drama not over. Read the fine print. "small chance it's reversed", "rockets haven't recieved word", "won't announce till deadline". They could be setting us up.

    Good, I suppose. Great if we get Howard.

    Dragic has talent and the will to win, but if you watch Lin you see the man has the smarts to play like a Nash type. I like the move even though it's risky.

    The league is moving to where they will all be bad except for a select few markets.

    Could Lin be the centerpiece in a Chris Paul sign and trade next summer?

    ...too soon?

    Jeremy Lin is as you pointed out, worth so much more than Dragic and not for basketball reasons.

    A cynic could conclude that the Knicks leaked this out, to get Rockets fans hopes up to just "reverse gears" at the last minute and keep Lin.....just like the Rockets reversed gears with the offer sheet at the last minute.

    I am sure the Knicks have moved on though....but clearly the NYT article left a crack in the door for a change of heart.

    That's actually a good point, we're talking about Donald Sterling here...

    agreed but it would be pretty brutal to leak that info to a very reputable insider only to completely renege regardless of the qualifiers mentioned in the article.
