Woj: Jeremy Lin to be bought out and sign with Toronto

Great signing, this is exciting. Roster is rounding out well for a playoff run.

Lin is an upgrade over Delon, Gasol a big upgrade over Valanciunas. We're a notably better team for this playoff run.

Jeremy Lin is going to fit perfectly with the 2nd unit. Good pickup by the Raps!

One of the most memorable Raptors game ever was when he hit that game winner.

Plus he is gonna be cheap and also a fan favourite.

I remember that vividly. You just knew he was going to win that game by himself. I was mad at first but than was really impressed that this nobody came in the league and took the NBA over.

Who plays backup PG though? Lin or FVV? Is FVV going to be happy as 3rd string?

This is awesome. If we can get a bit of big man depth (like Kieff if he's healthy), we are very solid this year.

Even though there were rumblings of this, I never believed it would happen. This is our best buy-out pick-up ever....

doesnt he have a neck issue, cant have any contact.
i think the raptors will sign ben mclemore to a 10 day deal to reach the 14 man minimum

then waive him after the 10 days that that will give them time till march1st to sign someone else if they are bought out and they can convince to come here.

I don't understand the Jeremy Lin hype around here in these Toronto forums. Why do we want this guy so bad? I haven't watched him play since his New York days, has he gotten better or something?

Seriously how the **** does VC not wanna be bought out?

God forbid people actually love the players on the team. Lin has been a good player, hes going to fit in with this team. It’s awesome that people who didn’t really watch basketball tune in because of him. It makes the experience that much more fun. The whole goal is to expand the Raptors brand, get as many fans as we can. Not sure what your crying about.

Will ticket prices be higher in the playoffs cause of this? :lol:
