How do you block a guy from following you on twitter? I got 10 measly people following me and one of them is a damn Knicks fan that doesn't want to match Lin's contract. :lol:

@AnthonyMSG @TommyDeeTKB Lin is a Knick. It's a fact according to agent Montgomery. Confirmed with Tanner who also represents him

Dude is desperate for attention, he has tweeted every nba reporter in the country.

What do you say? lol

I am confident that Isiah already has input

good point.

I bet you Isiah is telling Dolan to dump Lin.

Our only hope:

Could you imagine if this NBA insider guy was telling the truth and no one wants to believe him? Would suck to be him... :lol:

I'm looking at the dude's feed right now and he has tweeted to at least 300 reporters that Lin is a Knick. So he must really believe in his "source"

They don't want to get fired over a false report.

The guy with the twitter is just trying to make a 50/50 guess so he can troll in the future because people will think he is the one that broke the Lin news.

You just click on who is following you, and there is a thing next to there name and you can block them.

Isn't crazy to think, since the new broke of the trade on saturday evening, there have been ABSOLUTELY NO DEVELOPMENTS, just rampant speculations and "sources" and yet here we are, 7 threads later, probably close to 750 pages, 11,000+ posts. All over absolutely no new concrete information other than the terms of the felton deal, which we basically knew that evening.

No offense to any of y'all, but I just don't understand why this has all of your up-to-the-minute attention. I guess you all must think that signing Lin is make-or-break for the Knicks' future. I want him signed too, but certainly don't think not signing him will doom our chances at winning. At least not to the point where I can't just wait for the news to inevitably come about at some point today/tonight...or are most of you just bored?

When he tweeted someone that he was leaving Twitter after the Lin saga ends that was a dead giveaway that he's fake.

People who are telling the truth don't usually sit there wasting hours tweeting every friggin' reporter to get re-tweeted. That just screams attention whore.

I'm listening to the radio... drinking a soy chocolate milk before I go do my moonlight jump shot workout at the park and then I'll listen to that Jared Max show because I like the co-host while my chick sleeps and my cats try and sneak out of my house. I ain't got anything much better to do. :lol:

Well if he is telling the truth, he could be trying to get his name out there so he gets credit for breaking the story first.

I am really happy my vacation timing got lucky. I am leaving in 2 days, and I am glad the Lin decision will be made by then. If I had planned it a little bit earlier like I originally had, I probably would have been lurking Lin updates like a sucker.
