    SAS is milking Linsanity as much as he can to pay his mortgage, car payments, and kids tuitions. Some but not all media people are aggressive, they play gotcha, they make things up and push crap as far as they can.

    And what's so unbelievable about the possible trade of Lin?

    serious or not theres way too many posters saying stuff like, "hope lin gets traded cause later LOFs" and im 100% sure some of them are serious

    Does the trade make the team better or worse?
    That should be the only concern, not JL#1 saying "nexttonyparkerGOAT"

    I read your post as you having your tongue tucked firmly in your cheek. It can be tough trying to be humorous here sometimes. I've had to explain a sarcastic remark on some occasions, and have also failed to pick up on someone elses sarcasm or humor on others. The remark sort of loses its zing when you're forced to dissect it for the reading public. ;-)-

    Never heard of hardaway jr.

    Knicks should do anything to get Lin back if Melo leaves. Lin can't play with ball dominant sg. They take ball away from him, bench him, trade talk him, and then expect him to come off bench and turn up linsanity 2.0

    There is some rumblings around the league about a potential Rockets/Knicks trade. Omer Asik & Jeremy Lin for Tyson Chandler & Iman Shumpert.

    This wouldn't be it, one of the sides are gonna have to add anouther asset because their is 0 chance both teams make this sideways trade

    Edit: this twitter accounts follow up tweet

    @MySportsLegion: There's no chance the Knicks would make that trade...they'd be beyond stupid...not happening.

    Morey needs to throw in Garcia and Hardaway Jr, that would perfect.

    Stop quoting MySportsLegion. They are not a reliable source at all.

    Which is why NY would do it. Never underestimate the power of Dolan. I bet he's getting desperate to keep fan attention from plummeting.

    You also got to remember that sas predicted that mike d was going to get fired from the Knicks soon. Predicted within one week. And sure enough, there went mike d with his resignation.

    That's different. SAS is represented by CAA; a group heavily involved in the Knicks organization. Anything regarding NY are the only times his sources may be more reliable than anyone else's.

    ^This. I also think Lin being in New York is a lot more valuable than people think. He is the only "star" who really doesn't have to win, that's partly why Morey got him. People will come just to see him and New York could take its time rebuilding.
