Arguably the most coveted buy out candidate. Excellent pickup for the Raps.

Great signing for the Raptors. I wonder where the posters who were taking shots at me Karate-Diop-Guaranteeing that the Hawks wouldn't be able to get a 1st round pick for Lin are right now...

I didn't see sky-high ticket prices for the Nets last year.

Holy hell that's a good low key signing.

Wright to Lin
Val to Gasol

Massai is a GAWD

This. So excited for Linsanity in Toronto!

Toronto, for those who don't know, has a HUGE Asian community (and many of them are avid basketball fans). Basketball wise, this is a great signing, culturally, it's a fantastic signing for Toronto at large.

Great pick up. I love FVV, but Lin is just a lot better and more seasoned. I think he'll quickly take the 6th man reigns away form him

Happy for him. Great pick up for Toronto as well. He can back up Lowry and have Van Vleet be the 2 guard off the bench.

EDIT- CKB just beat me to the punch posting that video.

Anyway, hope he does well and it seems like a good signing. TBH I have no idea how Jeremy has been doing this year. His stat line doesn't look bad, if only he could boost that 3FG% it seems like he could be a really good asset off the bench.

You must not see the number of Chinese residents in Toronto either.

Jeremy has been scoring the ball with a nearly 60 TS% and can play both guard positions on both sides of the floor. This is a pretty massive move for the Raptors, and as funny as it is to say, with the Raptors, 76ers, and Bucks being so close, Jeremy Lin could actually put the Raps over the top

Damn. That's a good pick up.

Y'll think Hawks buy out Dedmon too?
