We are matching and vescey is still a clownshow. Don't care what he has to say (furiously runs to twitter)

They're all so desperate for attention. I'm gonna go make an account and make sh*t up and they'll retweet it.

Honestly, I don't think Vecsey knows how the internet works.

ibraheim718 - why do you try to speak reality with people who have agendas? There was only one official offer. It's not fact that Lin went "back" to Vegas to negotiate a bigger contract. That's pure speculation.

It's like the same people keep posting the same speculative nonsense over and over, hoping that it becomes true or something.

Eh.. I was just listening to the radio and they were talking about and I was thinking how on earth do you even remotely believe this. He was probably going to Vegas to sign the contract. Logic doesn't lead me to believe that the Lin camp were the masterminds behind this.. it was 100% Morey.

When was the last time Peter Vecsey nailed down a story before anyone else? This is also the guy who's made a living off of writing negative, vitriol-laden articles about the Knicks for years. Wouldn't surprise me if he's just **** with Knicks fans at this point.

No agent on the face of the planet would ever let his client do that... it would be unheard of.. especially when it was public knowledge that the Knicks were going to match anything... for heavens sake the coach was even saying it before the offer was official.

The one white knight of this offseason has been JR Smith. Took a 1year deal and gave us a big discount. As much hate as he gets for his act and as much as we hear what a good guy Lin is, JR ironically has been the loyal guy.

So it's no unheard of, just very rare.

lol JR Smith... declined his player option got no better offer remained with knicks for his bird rights...

JR smith is so money hungry went to china... to play...lol

Why are people ignoring this?

To be fair, you are not the first. I agree with you.

Vecsey said he isn't reporting anything, he is just repeating what others have reported, so I assume he is talking about nbainsider.
