I don't think Lin affects the Dwight chase at all. why would Orlando want that contract if they were trying to rebuild?
Jeremy Lin and Dwight Howard in the all star game in Houston? Yes please! Looks like it could actually happen. Insane.
Larry Coon @LarryCoon My guess is deal would fall apart if Hou ends up with both. ORL wants to unload bad contracts as well. RT @AjayTaunk: How many of the Magic's contracts can HOU take (in a Dwight deal) if they pick up both Lin and Asik? Larry Coon @LarryCoon Haven't heard directly that it's real. But if HOU ends up with both Lin and Asik, Orlando may need to move on to Plan C. Would that be the Lakers? Quite possibly. RT @jkane34: what do you think of this supposed lakers/cavs/magic trade? Larry Coon @LarryCoon They'd likely have Asik... RT @BBooth248: If Howard to Lakers deal goes through, where does that leave HOU in regards to BIG's?
I would be happy getting Lin, but Asik needs to go to the Bulls if signing him jeopardizes a deal with Orlando. The Rockets need to ensure they stay Orlando's top option for Howard.
Yes keep the reports coming in that it would hurt us if NY doesn't match. Maybe NY will believe that and think they are hurting us by not matching. FOOLS!!
DMo and Asik is a nice, big, young front court. But not to worry. Morey will find a way to add Howard and we'll have three 7 footers.
Frank Isola @FisolaNYDN The Knicks have acquired Raymond Felton and Kurt Thomas from Portland for Jared Jeffries and Dan Gadzuric, sources tell the Daily News
This. Morey must know that Chicago will match, otherwise he wouldn't have upped the Lin offer. Or maybe we take on big contracts anyway, pay some luxury tax for a year and then trade some of those contracts
commentators right now for the rockets summer league game just said LIN to be Rockets starting point guard because NY release info that they will not match.
Woohoo. Thanks to Linsanity, now I might be able to sell some of my extra Rockets tickets instead of donating them to charity?
