I am rooting against Lin. I want the Knicks pick to go back to 6-10th in the lottery. I hope Lin turns into Jeremy "Knicks are Losin' and Stumb-" Lin for the rest of the season.
I'll say this though. The Rockets were lucky that it even got this close. Knicks were a top 5 team in the east by most going into the season. They should have never been in this position in the first place so it's easy to say also that they would naturally turn it around... But I thought things were about to get ugly especially in NYC. If 8-20 or 10-18 or whatever they would have done without Lin the last 5 games happened I wonder how much longer they would have stayed with D'antoni. The whole fanbase has been yelling to get him fired.
This is the sad part We get a player that does not value Houston as his home because our best players are declining very fast.
Check the remaining games on the Knicks schedule. You tell me. All Milwaukee had to do was play .500 ball which they are capable of doing against their remaining opponents.
What are your thoughts, the way NY and HOU are playing looks like we're destined for pick #14 outside looking in again and NY possibly at #15. As deep as the draft is said to be, do we try and trade up for maybe #10 or keep the picks and get 2 rotation players. Of course still depending on what they do at the trade deadline as of now I was thinking I'd rather them stay put and draft C M. Leonard and SG T. Ross!
I want the Rockets to draft Leonard. He would be a tremendous fit in Houston. Unfortunately, it's looking less likely now. Could be wrong, but I don't think he will fall to us at 14-15.
True and if we only had one pick Leonard is the guy I'd like to see Morey target. If it doesn't seem as if he'd fall to 14-15 then package something to move up and draft him.
Yeah thats not looking good now. Lin outscoring Carmelo and being able to sit out the 4th quarter because the game is already in hand is not a good sign. It looks like this Jeremy Lin stuff is here to stay.
I don't think so. Knicks will continue to beat up on lesser teams when before they were losing to them. They just lost to the best team in the NBA probably and weren't even blown out. Unless something Linsane happens we are not getting a lottery pick from the Knicks.
