    Lin is done as a Rocket. Who cares.

    It is possible to have winning and NYC with Phil in charge. Its going to take on hell of a pitch to get Melo to leave NYC.

    Well, still think it was a gimmicky move, but at least they weren't classless about it. Kind of casts the Lin tweets in a different light though.

    If you watched the Linsanity documentary, Lin has tendencies of a quitter.

    Heh, that's one theory. Ignore all evidence to the contrary and put blind faith in Phil and I guess I could see how someone could think that.

    Keep that guy away from Melo. Don't let Clyde anywhere near ...people who aren't deaf.

    Lets keep this thread focused guys.

    There is a seperate thread to discuss the Lin thing if you want, so lets stay ontopic in here. This is about the Rockets efforts to get Carmelo Anthony to come here...not on if Jeremy sucks or LOFs suck. Please drop all that stuff.
