    Finally we get our All-Star starter...was getting a little worried we would be hosting an all-star game without an all-star.

    Not saying his turnovers aren't a problem, but the Miami defense tends to do that to people. They made James Harden looks like a complete scrub, and he even had time to adjust over a multi-game series.

    Honestly, I thought Lin's best game was vs. Wizards without Melo & Amar'e. He exposed John Wall, got McGee in foul trouble & had first dunk

    I don't have a problem with stating that Lin would get more endorsements in NY, that is just a fact. However, the Knicks management fails to realize there was tension between Woodson and Lin and Anthony and Lin.

    Further, the Knicks are not exactly world beaters, they are mediocre and the Rockets are not done. If the Rockets get Howard or Bynum, they will be better than NY.

    Glad for lin and the rockets! Both should benefit from this move! Predict for Lin's 2012-2013 season: 20+pts, 7+asts

    Congratulations from a Blazers fan.

    I've been dubious of Morey and all the hype about him but I think this is really a great move.

    I hope you guys get Dwight Howard too.

    Dragic was traded from the Suns to the Rockets and re-signs with the team that traded him.

    Lin was cut and re-signs with the team that cut him. Now they both will be playing for those teams. Oh the irony.

    I hope Lin is training hard because he's going to be the #1 target, especially if McHale tries to bring back Linsanity.

    It will be interesting to see who the Rockets add to the team because Lin will still need help on the defensive end. He had Shumpert, Chandler, and a bunch of other role players. The good thing though Lin might have that Tebow effect where he helps inspire guys to play their best.

    Maybe but his twitter handle is jlin7. Lowry and Carmelo were both #7 so he might have been forced to go 17. He has a choice now.

    And Meyers Leonard is a nice pick up for the Blazers. I had hoped the Rockets would get him.

    Thank you. Portland--hell, all NBA cities--could use more fans like you.

    I'm still sad about Greg Oden's injuries...that's why I don't consider him a bust--he was just extremely unlucky, like Yao was in his last two years. Oden had huge talent.

    Anyway, back on topic--yay for Linsanity!
