Dolan is an even bigger idiot then I thought if he doesnt match Lin because of some petty ****.

He also thinks the Knicks are a stronger team with Fatton.

Lin should have posted fawning comments on the JD & Straight Shots website, that like guy impersonating Isiah years ago...

If Dolan really wants payback on Lin, match him and make him earn his money on the biggest and most pressure-filled stage in basketball.

Or just match him and tell Woodson to not play him.

match him and then trade him later. as long as he plays just decently, he's an asset.

Shittt... I gotta say if a top-revenue-making team like Knicks are taking this long to match when they were originally said to match any offer, damn, something is up. They might have a change of mind, which I don't think has anything to do with money. Maybe Berman is right that Dolan is furious finding Lin is not keen on returning.

Everybody who was saying that Lin hit the Knicks up for more money because 'it's a business' the other day should remember...

It's a business. That particular blade cuts both ways.

I think Lin will be in a Rox uni on opening day. See ya, kid. Have a nice career.

Why did the thread get locked? Anyway No one would trade for Lin if he isnt the real deal. no 1 would pay 15 mil for a back up PG.
Whats up with the Knicks bench. The bench is so old they remember Moses before he had a beard

Clearly not about the money because the Knicks would gladly have paid Chris Paul a Max if he was traded to them. And had 3 Maxes in 14-15 and beyond. And they wouldn't have stopped filling in the roster either, as they're doing now.

"...he's an asset" That's the part I don't understand. The Knicks built him as an asset from nothing. Why let the Rockets take him for nothing. It makes no sense.

LIN IS NOT THE ONLY REASON FOR THE CHANGE IN MSG STOCK. YOU JUST SOUND SILLY WHEN YOU SAY HE HAS EARNED DOLAN 600MILLION.

Meanwhile NY has the oldest team in the league. Have a nice 3rd year with 4 42 year olds.
