    Why would that be of any interest to the team?

    If they can't trade him - don't need him. Wouldn't that clear cap space? Honestly don't know how this works.

    I don't read the CBA or any NBA legal document (not what I'm here for), but as I understand it, bought out contracts still count toward the salary cap, so skinny chance. He'd have to be worse than a 3rd string PG (since the Rockets will still need one of those).

    Yes but would you pay somebody millions to walk away and play for the opponent? 20 million is a lot.

    Dunno if it's allowed but maybe if Lin lets go of most of the money owed.

    If he was both physically and mentally ready to play in the NBA then he is in fact not an average Joe by definition.

    288 pages on an online board confirms this

    If Lin plays decently for the duration of the contract, this thread reaches 500 pages. If badly, 1,500 pages.

    Well it's definitely a joke to pay him that much money next year.

    Oh now it's an M5? Lol. I also have a C63 but what does it matter. Id bet you are referring to your dad's car and you probably still live with your mommy and daddy. And why are you bringing bringing up your penis? Gay?

    How many times are you going to strike out on this claim, 'gimp? This reminds me of all the racist comments you used to make in your early posting days on the board.

    Lin fans like you are the only ones that think it is the moderator's responsibility to censor criticism about one (and only one) player. We locked Lin is garbage.... and Jeremy Lin Freaking Sucks!, but when this got bumped, it made sense to let it ride this time.

    Lin has been terrible in the last several games... some fans are going to kneejerk and vent somewhere. I don't agree with it -- I don't think Jeremy Lin is near as bad as some of the posts here suggest, just as I don't think he's near as good as some LOFs think. But sorry, no ... I'm not going to censor criticism of one player because you love him so much. That's absurd.

    Bumped after 1 year by this troll. Don't know why it took him so long to respond about harden in a thread about lin!

    This is a thread about Lin's performance from 11/2012. No ones going to sift through 200+ pages of madness. IMHO, it would've been better to start a fresh new thread about lin's crappy performance. It was already confusing to some posters when it got bumped.
