We're hearing that Jon Diebler is also going to NY.

If he just came out and said I LOVED THE KNICKS, I WANT TO BE A KNICK, ETC ETC, this would not be going on.

He did not have to sign that offer sheet. He did not have to tell them to give him more money.

Sadly, this is not a Knicks mistake. This is going to be a huge regret on LINS part. He goes from future superstar to just another guy in houston.

Dont want to hear MING comparisons

Lin can not say that as his signing an offer sheet with the rockets...

otherwise no team will give him offer sheet... do you understand ?

he has to stay neutral...

You got Jeffries....instant MVP

Jesus, I know nothing is certain, but for the first time since Linsanity I have doubts Jeremy will be wearing the orange and blue.

Felton/Kidd PG rotation is almost as bad as Davis/Bibby was.

I'll be pretty disappointed if we don't match. i like the felton pick up though. his fat ass is better suited to be as back up pg.

Are people really happy with Felton over Lin?

Most badass frontcourt since Ewing, Oak and Mase.

He's not the only one that is happy, much of the board seems happy as well

Yea it's pretty ridiculous. Wherever he ends up, I hope he averages 24 and 8 so they can feel dumb.

Are you two high? Who here would be happy if he's gone?

maybe.

lin/felton/perogi
kidd/smith/(shumpert)
melo/novak/white
amare/kt
chandler/camby

that's 13/15

knicks need a forward.

the foreign guy at center might be a more useful signing.

They also said before they wanted to bring back Landry as well and looked what happened. I think from Day 1, they planned not to bring Lin back. Otherwise they would not pursue Nash that aggressively.

Event though the head coach just named him the starter? Riiiiiggghhhhttt...

What was Woodson supposed to say, really?

"No comment" "I want to see a healthy competition" "you never know" "I'm not ready to proclaim a starter until all guys are signed" I can keep going.

Zero? The knicks will match the offer... no need to be nervous. :lol:

Kammerichs, Nicola, Sheffer, and Sinanovic. Who are those guys? Are we getting one of them, too?

maybe we can slowly start squeezing amar'e out of the line-up with all this depth

Houston would be an ideal location for Lin to build his megachurch.

Do knicks pull out on Prigioni if we keep Lin?
