    Getting back his job as a starter wasn't motivation enough? :eek:

    That's cold, as much as I think Lin does not fit with Harden and is unfortunately very tentative and insecure at times on the court, he seems like the best off of it. I'm not so sure the 76ers would take Lin.

    Just like most years, when final word could come from Woj at any minute during the offseason, insiders tend to disappear.

    It's too bad he wasn't motivated enough the last few seasons or he wouldn't be getting dumped right now.

    1) Probably costs something to move him that you don't want to lose just because

    2) The type of trade you make may be directly tied to what you are trying to add to the team

    If true, then Lin could really help Philly win games and allow MCW to develop at his natural position: SG. They would have a big backcourt to go along with 2 young bigs (when healthy). Not sure what Philly plans to do with Young. I'm not certain Melo leaves NY or that he would choose Houston over Chicago. Brian Windhorst believes the rank order is NY, Chi, Hou.
