    How many people is that?

    This entire thread was just a bait thread started by a Lin fan who sounds bitter about McHale.

    If you read through the thread, 90% of the people advocating a trade are just bitter Lin fans, like you. You guys create your own enemy then play victim.

    Irony? Wanting an Injured player to play more just to get the minutes in a single game isn't more short sighted than looking all the way down to the off season to "Explore some options?" That's exactly what the title says, I would actually call it a knee jerk if not for that.

    This stuff that supestar and I brought up are very well documented. The only thing that is speculation is whether dolan could take him back. Base on his track record of being the supreme idiot of the kree owners of the nba, the educated guess is a big fat not

    Thank you. I am sorry, but I find this poll insulting. And I find the poll results insulting. Fans should have faith.

    Oh it was a bait thread to say we should cut our losses and move on to someone else? Maybe you look at it as bait because all you care about is lin for better or worse. If he gets traded I'm still here, idiots like you will probably sign up at the next teams forum to piss and moan about him.

    (Inserts obligatory "lol whatcha talking bout. I'm a big rox fan since 1990s. My parents were only able to buy me a computer recently because they retired and social security started coming in. I'm a big fan of dream becaus his nickname is dream and he was a great pg for us...blah blah blah")

    Look how nice I treat the new guys...I even make their posts for them.

    Relax guy

    Reading this thread and some other posts of yours hating on McHale and how he plays Lin, it's pretty obvious where your head is at with this passive aggressive thread. It's essentially just you pouting.

    I just don't want to deal with the bs circus that's gonna come along if things continue going down the path. Did you not see what happened in ny this year with tebow-sanchez? Trading jeremy sooner than later is the better option if mchales not going to trust his decision making. Do I want mchale gone? Of course, look at what he did to our best pg last year! But I doubt he will be gone as he has a built in excuse this season becaus of the trob trade. Do you see a better solution if lin gets relegated to an overpaid backup with his cadre of fans and media spotlight?

    What circus? I watch ESPN everyday and see no circus at all aside from ClutchFans. This is nowhere near the Tebow Sanchez. Tebow & Sanchez was a bigger story and on top of that Tebow didn't get any playing time. Lin plays the 3rd most minutes on our team. He's the second most important player on the offensive end. How is he a back up?

    Throw that in with the team doing well in their first season together, gelling well with all our lead players having great chemistry, and with the salary cap to sign another max player this off season. I really don't see your point. He and Tebow's situation aren't alike at all. Lin is a big part of this team so when you act like he's not to make your point, it sounds irrational to me.

    re-read my post again. There will be a circus NEXT year IF Lin gets relegated to backup. I am talking about what will happen NEXT year if the PRESENT situation continues to trend in the direction. You really don't believe there will be a media circus NEXT year if Lin is relegated to backup or 3rd stringer?

    Edit: So let's freak out about something that doesn't seem like it's going to happen because it potentially could possibly resemble another situation that happened in a different city and sport.

    This whole thread is stupid, Lin is a very good PG with a lot of upside. He just finished one year of play and the team is still getting to know each other. The future looks bright.

    So you want to trade Lin this summer because of a prediction about what will happen next season?

    I hate to speak for you but is this about Lowry losing his spot to Dragic and ultimately leaving? Is that the source of all of this bitterness?

    No I want to trade Lin this summer if the rest of the season plays out the way it's been trending recently.

    Not a Lowry fanatic by all means, but any half decent coach would not have let that situation gone to crap the way it did. I even supported McHale's position at the time and disliked Lowry for complaining. The more I thought about it though, the more it became obvious that McHale was too stubborn to work things out with a talented PG. Imagine our record with Lowry running the point right now.
