    the rockeets have the top back court in the NBA....top scoring team in the NBA....Jeremy Lin is a marketing diamond....and hes playing pretty good basketball..in the last 4 games
    hes averaging 20 points....

    Lin is not going anywhere.....maybe in 2 yeas when th cost is higher....but in 2 years i thinks hes 20 and 10.....

    how much better is rondo now? Lins a better scorer, he plays really good d, top in steals in tha NBA....rondo more assists but assist are a questionable stat thats dictated by the players around you.....

    Lins just fine...all this noise about Lin not being a player is nonsense. These people making this noise are the same people who were saying how Curry was going to light up Lin and Lin scored 28. Nonsense.....Rockets are going to get better and better. We need a 4 and Asik to improve....the natural maturing of this team will make them special maybe for years to come....Lins not goin anywhere......

    As far as I can tell its only the realgm forum with some users apparently having heard about it on the radio.

    A trade Rondo, Lee for Asik, Lin, T-Rob works and nets us over 4 million in capspace (so more than enough for Howard) - we'd probably have to throw in a first rounder as well (don't know how high the price for Rondo actually is right now with the injury and Boston selling the house...) and maybe Jones or Moti...

    We just got Canaan to back up Bev and Lin, why do we need another back-up? Maybe he could spend a year playing spot games for the Vipers while he recovers from his ACL? Derrick Rose is another option.

    Rondo, Lin, Harden, Parson and Dwight

    Would this small lineup work?

    Lin is more of a scoring guard and with Rondo, Lin can focus on what he needs to do.

    Any suggestions?

    I don't know why its assumed Lin would still be on the team if a trade for Rondo was made.

    Just a random observation, why are you being so hostile in every single thread?I definitely understand not agreeing with people's opinions, but I don't see anything wrong with people just talking about various possibilities, even if they've only been brought up as rumors. That's what this place is for.
