    Oh man these posts just made me burst out laughing.
    LA should really remove that free tacos promotion, its absolutely pathetic.

    They should have changed the promotion to "free turnovers" once Lin joined the team.

    In any case, I am all for raising the minimum wage but handing out $16 million a year to someone to simply pass out free tacos to those who can afford Lakers tickets is a bit excessive.

    9/10 for effort.

    1/10 for quality.

    I much prefer King1's jokes.

    The only joke here is on the Lakers for absorbing the $16 million on the tail end of a terrible contract.

    That is one expensive draft pick.

    Daryl Morey should be thanking the Lakers everyday.

    It's like me paying $100 for a McDonald's cheeseburger, and you agreeing to pay me $50 to finish the rest after I have already eaten 2/3rd of it. I just had to throw in a $5 coupon for a future discount on Panera Bread sandwich for you to bite. We both got killed by terribly overpriced junk food but I am just happy to get out of a terrible situation and recoup half of my money. I was a fool for overpaying, but you were an even bigger fool to come around and rescue me.

    by breaking records, leading a winning streak in a lost-cause Knicks team, scoring 38 points on Kobe and being the protagonist in the best underdog history of the NBA? Doesn't take a high IQ to understand that.

    I said why someone gave him $25m, not why a bunch of basement dwellers started living vicariously through him, that part i already get.

    Les would easily make back the $25m through marketing from Lin

    What are you so upset about?

    Look at the top contributors of this thread. You should be happy that Lin gives meaning to so many who clearly needs it.

    Is that why Rockets were trying to trade him after just one season?
