    So... the Lakers counter to Houston actually having not over-the-hill or injured basketball talent on its roster is... Kurt Rambis' wife is friends with Phil Jackson's fiancee?

    I worry about the Clippers as well, but who wants to go to a team that has a depleted roster because of you?

    I thought Lin was being shopped though. How does CCTV work? Do they choose to show only certain games? Would Lin's new team be shown instead of Rockets?

    Yes, after Linsanity, there were reports that Knicks games were picked up and added to sports channels in Asia instead of soccer or whatever they were airing. And now, Woj says Rocket games viewerships in China are up in part due to association with Lin. It stands to reason that if they can switch from the Knicks to the Rockets, the channels choosing what games to air and viewers can easily switch from the Rockets to whatever Jeremy's new team is. Just like Maxxiss Tires did.

    If Dwight doesn't want to be a rocket it's because our offense is exactly D'antoni's. That and our players aren't experienced (we're younger than last year)
