[PumaClyde]

Don't jump yet

This makes zero business sense. Zero. I really don't know wtf is going on.

Rockets haven't heard what the Knicks decision.

Frank Isola ‏@FisolaNYDN
Still no official confirmation from Knicks on whether they are passing on Jeremy Lin. Appears to be a formality at this point

Sam Amick ‏@sam_amick

The Rockets have not yet received word on whether the Knicks are matching their three-year, $25.1 million offer

Guess I'm alone on this We Will Match Lin Boat

[Mr Rabbit]

I will root for the Knicks to succeed.

But if they don't, I don't want mediocrity. I want the players strangling each other in the locker-room, Dolan getting shot at everytime a sniper has a chance, dogs and cats living together, mass hysteria.

[Starks1994]

Dolan: Now you can play those vets all you want.

[Jose7]

This team is significantly better than just a month ago and you Lin stans can't take it. You wanted him back at all cost even though he would have been a bench player playing meager minutes.

Can't accept that the organization might actually think he's not a good player. That they don't want a walking turnover when they are trying to construct a roster to beat the Heat. Our 3 PG's all have an A/T over 2, something Lin will never do in his career.

I want Lin back but this current team is gonna BRING IT.. so many great pieces together. Would love to see a Lin/Ray/Kidd rotation but hey.. things could be way worse. I'm excited about the talent around Melo and STAT. And we are getting back a mentally focused and physically ready STAT, something we didn't have this upcoming season.

LETS GO BABY!!!

"The Knicks are not expected to announce their decision until this evening,and there is still a chance - albeit incredibly small -that it could be reversed. But as of 4 p.m. the decision had been made and was considered final by those with knowledge of the deliberations. Indeed,the deliberations were said to be over."

This makes zero business sense. Zero. I really don't know wtf is going on.

Agreed 110%. This has to be personal.

The Beck Tweet was a hearbreaker. I don't have much hope left...

Nobody reported that they informed the Rockets. The report was the Knicks finished discussing the matter and have come to a decision.

[Context]

Spoke with the Knick front office. Nothing office yet and nothing unofficial that they can comment on...

You can almost hear Woodson whipsering ... "Jim, we can get a lot out of Raymond Felton, don't you worry."

[[GR]]

Why a new thread? I feel all alone in the other.

[MaseInYourFace]

If it is I feel really bad for the rest of you guys who will remain fans. All you will get is mediocrity and a lot of pain with an owner who runs his org that way...

[Teppler]

This is a major breaking point for me personally. It's getting harder and harder to support this organization.

You can't get a lot out of Raymond Felton...especially if you're at a buffet with him...

Ken Berger ‏@KBergCBS

League source confirms @HowardBeckNYT report that Knicks' current plan is not to match Houston offer sheet for Jeremy Lin.

IMHO Unless something drastic happens like Dolan gets a call from Lin himself "the Plan" will not change.
