It's still possible to match Lin, yes?

Good stop freaking the fu*k oiut everybody.

We got Felton AND Kurt Thomas AND rights to two players AND can still match Lin. Grunnie deserves Executive of the year award :clap:

Fair or not, Melo is going to be the scapegoat if it turns out Lin didn't want to be here. And if Lin does well in Houston, it's going to be even worse.

OHHH maybe Jon Diebler? is the only guy Portland had rights that I think could come over, He's a GREAT SHOOTER, I'd to sign him for the minimun deal if he wants!

Win win for everyone. Lin wants guaranteed playing time so he can go to a team with no other PG on roster and we get vets who want to win over anything else.

And if he comes back then good. His play and not his off-court status will determine who plays and for how many minutes.

All is right in the world when "Crazy Eyes" Kurt Thomas is headed back to the Knicks. Great guy, leader and six hard fouls every game

yes.

If We don't match Lin it would be the biggest surprise I've seen in sports in my whole life. All these media scumbags are making a story by trying to connect the dots.

Man I really hope this not matching crap is not true, I know I know Lin is no sure thing, but neither is Felton. I think people are forgetting how terrible he was last season. So this is the guy that is gonna get us one step closer to a chip? It wouldn't jive with the rest of our offseason MO.

Jeffries and Fields were Lin's two closest teammates on the Knicks, too...

doesn't look good for NY Linsanity

David Aldridge: As said earlier, Rockets think there is a chance that Knicks won't match on Lin. But we don't know if NY has even received sheet yet. Crazy. 2 minutes ago

Tommy Dee: But it is clear to me that Lin won't be on the #knicks based on my last 5 conversations... 2 minutes ago

Peter Vecsey: What's the earliest date the Knicks can re-sign bound-to-be-bounced-by-Blazes Jared Jeffries? 2 minutes ago

Who is the one holding up us getting the sheet?.. I was out all day. Not sure of the protocol
