    Don't worry. Clutch will create a "All Jeremy Lin troll dump thread" in NBA Dish and move every troll thread there.

    No D-Mo or Jones in the deal? I thought both had to go in order to offer Bosh the max?

    If that happens then Clutch should ban everyone who does it.

    Happy for Lin. He's going to a ton of rabid fans in LA. And, with them rebuilding, he'll probably get a lot of usage.

    Alright does this mean no more Lin/LOF/LOH/LinvsBev/LinvsMcHale/LinvsHarden threads?

    Lakers probably saw Lin draw out plays for McHale last season and thinks he could be a player/coach for the season.

    more likely a protected 2nd pick that the rockets will never get just because they have to send something back
