    You're the "twit" because that tweet from Canaan is real. Don't attack people for posting fake stuff unless you're sure its fake.

    Here is his tweet again about the training sessions in LA with Dwight:

    I hope all our boys make it and develop some chemistry. We gotta get Dwight acclimated as quickly as possible.

    Lin and Asik may be another K-Mart this year.
    They will be traded after pre-season

    I believe they will ride with them through the season unless catastrophe strikes then they will have to lowball themselves for trades.

    Not at all - All the Rox have to do is throw in some cash. By the same argument Rox saved $3m this past year since they only paid $5m but got a $8m player.

    Rox can only throw in $3.2m (max cash allowance). Not enough to cover Lin's $7m (15 - 8) over cap balloon payment.

    But you are right... throwing in cash picks, other players may make Lin a more attractive trade piece to other teams. Still, I think the easiest time to get rid of Lin is now. After this season, it going to be much much tougher. That's why I think the Rockets really believe in Lin's upside and think he can be the PG to win now.
