    Apparently, but then he's saying, "how do you want me, master?"

    This.

    He has a degree from Harvard.

    He makes $15,000,000 next year to play basketball in the NBA.

    He is young and in good health.

    The passive aggressive complaining is really getting old.

    Are people really calling Les cheap? If so they probably think Dolan is a good owner as well.

    i doubt very seriously that's why he's posting that. that's one of the most misunderstood verses in the Bible...and it's just amazing when understood in historical context.

    Feel bad for a marginal basketball player getting paid like a starter?

    Lin should be thankful. The Rockets offered him a big contract and gave him an opportunity.

    It sucks that he's only been in the league for a few years and he's been shipped around a good bit... but that's the nature of the business. Basketball players change teams. That's life in the NBA.

    Hope this doesn't get lost in the shuffle, but here you go, Clutch. "Derek the Barber," who broke the Dwight news last summer lol. :)

    And while he is not worth $15M, he is still good enough (and has enough of a following) that some team will pay him millions for his next contract. With solid money management and future endorsement deals in China, he should be more than set for life. There is nothing to feel sorry for.

    I'm sure Lin would put it that he is "very blessed".

    Yeah, I'm about outta here. :)


    Those freaking out or making a big deal because the Rockets photo-shopped Anthony in a #7 jersey, as Pat Riley said, get a grip.

    Same damn thing happened 4 years ago when the Rockets chasing Bosh. Remember Houston4Bosh?

    Oh noes! They gave Bosh Scola's jersey! Oh noez!

    Quit the fake outrage. Non-story. Move along.
