Nope. Lin is what gives many of these chaps a life, a purpose. A handful exist to prop him up, many exist to kick him down. Without him, their life is meaningless. Without the words "trade Lin", their life is meaningless. This thread and all others exist only to be a thread about Jeremy Lin. So that it gives these chumps a life. P.S. Please trade Lin. P.P.S. Not.
yah, cant we just enjoy the team we have now, for sure they'll work on the gameplan, we had a long offseason unlike last year when players got accustomed to their roles during the season itself with the late roster moves and all,
Will you guys stop quoting that Xlargescreen dude, pls ! thanks man, I had him on ignore for so long that I forgot he even exist, until you guys quoted him
Of course that was the plan pre Harden, I just don't believe any promises were made when Morey signed Lin of building a team around him.
On the plus side, this should be the last year of extreme arguing over his value. If he plays for the team this year, not coming off injury, a year of experience with coaches and teammates under his belt... we will see where he is headed by the end of the year. If he gets traded, arguments go away too. As for breakfast, multiple sources have told me he likes fried eggs and peanut butter. He pours Apple Jack's cereal on top, rolls them up and dunks them like donuts in coffee, only he dunks them in his orange juice.
hope to see Ömer Aşık & DH12 play together. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/V9_JlY7l8T0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
Personally I think that is a legit possibility. I don't see Houston going very far over the cap until its time to resign CP25.

I don't think the twin-tower thing will work for the Rockets. Asik cannot score anywhere when guarded, Howard doesn't have much post move either, he relies more on his athleticism to score.
More proof that the Rockets are not shopping Asik: Jermaine O'Neal just agreed to a one year, $2 million deal with Golden State. The Rockets could have got O'Neal for the $2.6 million room exception if they were going to trade Asik. O'Neal would be a more than capable backup to Dwight.
