didn't like all the media attention...not a charismatic kid
he just never seem thrilled about the idea of being a PG in New York...he would rather just be a somebody in Houston.
maybe he just wasn't cut out for the pressure that comes with playing in NY

- Lin is screwing the Knicks over by leaking infos to the Rockets FO, secretly working on a bigger contract and forcing his way out of NY.
- It still isnt´t clear if the Knicks will match or not.
- Melo saying he wants Lin back, but it isn´t his business. Then calls the contract ridiculous which he is.
Knicks board:
F*** Melo
F*** Woodson
F*** Dolan
F*** Grunwald
F***Isaiah
Hail Lin.
Pathetic. Just pathetic.
A sign of people seeing what they want to see to further their agenda. There are plenty of posters that bash Lin. You've been consistently one of them.
n the late 1960s, researchers submitted hundreds of four-year-olds to an ingenious little test of willpower: the kids were placed in a small room with a marshmallow or other tempting food and told they could either eat the treat now, or, if they could hold out for another 15 minutes until the researcher returned, they could have two.
Most children said they would wait. But some failed to resist the pull of temptation for even a minute. Many others struggled a little longer before eventually giving in. The most successful participants figured out how to distract themselves from the treat’s seduction — by turning around, covering their eyes or kicking the desk, for instance — and delayed gratification for the full 15 minutes.
Follow-up studies on these preschoolers found that those who were able to wait the 15 minutes were significantly less likely to have problems with behavior, drug addiction or obesity by the time they were in high school, compared with kids who gobbled the snack in less than a minute. The gratification-delayers also scored an average of 210 points higher on the SAT.

In the article he didn't mention how exactly it would hurt us getting CP3 next year, so I was hoping maybe one of you guys might know. We'll be over the cap so we can't sign him outright so what is he talking about.
