Knicks are going to feel the wrath of Lin when they meet up with Houston. Even though Lin is humble, I could already tell that he's got one game in the back of his mind where he wants to rip shit up and that that is the game against the Knicks.
Also, against Heat and Nets.
D-Will just needs to STFU.Best backcourt in the NBA after 2 games against sub par teams?
We will demo Lin when we play the Rockets. Felton will be on him like white on rice.
Isn't every team subpar at this point? your statement holds no water. The Lakers looks deadly on paper but they're 0-3. You can consider them sub-par too at this point so enough with the 'sub-par' crap.
The season is fresh. Every teams are on the table.
......Or black on charcoal.
It isn't Lin's fault he ended up on the Rockets. You can blame the lousy Knicks front office for that so stop acting like he betrayed the team or something.

I couldn't agree more. The lousy Knicks front office doesn't deserve the success we'll achieve this year. It's very sad to
think that we could have kept Lin. Imagine Lin in addition to the players we have now. Don't say this wasn't possible. We
signed Felton first and we could have signed Lin if we wanted to. Felton wouldn't be happy but he'd adjust especially with
the team winning. No matter how well we do this year it could have been better with Lin on board.

Or is it because Walsh handed out bad contracts and left us with little flexibility?

Lousy Knicks front office? Yeah they just put together one hell of a team. We could have kept Lin but decided not to. GET OVER IT ALREADY. We're 2-0 and have the best team we've had in over 10 years yet people want to keep crying over a PG whose 3 games into an 82 games schedule. Lillard got his rocks off last night on the golden child! Nothing new, actually the norm but blind Lin lovers will continue to choose to ignore the simple fact that whenever Lin sqaures off against a PG with talent he gets roasted.
I don't think Lin betrayed the Knicks. Just think the Knicks made the right move in going with Felton over Lin.

If it was so imposible for the Knicks to match Lin's new contract why did they offered almost 30 million to Steve Nash? See it was not imposible, simply the Knicks chose not to do it, no excuse.

Lol, if Lin was still here, the Knicks would have their championship rings already, and Sandy would never have happened...

Morey has been his usual a**hole self (he must be despised among his fellow GMs)- he's great at capitalizing on other teams difficulties. Absolutely pounced on people using the new cba against them- he's really figured out how to turn it to his advantage. Lin, Asik and Harden all only possible due to the new cba. Can't stand Morey! hate to see him getting praise and success.
Now lin is in Houston with Harden and they are putting in work!!

dude, this is what great Gm's do.. if your organizations fail to plan, or plan poorly, he will take advantage.. that is what good CEO's do, good business owners and yes, good sports GM's..
knicks took advantage of a situation in golden state with sprewell.. didn't see any knicks fans complain about that.....
Morey deserves the praise,why not? I mean are you kidding me? I wish our organization would operate with such patience and killer instinct... instead of acting like spoiled, impetuous little rich kids without a clue..

Trading T-Mac to us was not taking advantage of the New CBA
Drafting decent player(s) in the second round was not taking advantage of the New CBA
Trading Kyle Lowry to the Raptors was not taking advantage of the New CBA
Trading Chase Buddinger to the Timberwolves was not taking advantage of the New CBA
Trading up in the draft was not taking advantage of the New CBA
S&T Camby to us was not taking advantage of the New NBA
Now to bring in the things you mentioned on top of the things I just mentioned this is referred to as......
MOREY DOING WORK!!!!!!
or simply put doing his job to improve his ball club..... General Manage

Ha- it's purely a personal thing, I just don't like the guy, he just comes across like an a**hole. Yep, you're right he is just doing his job and getting results, but I still bet he's one of the most hated GMs in the league among other GMs. The fact that I don't like him and maybe GMs don't, probably isn't going to keep him awake at night though, to be fair...

ok, I can respect that, but the guy is doing a good job.....and honestly I am not sure if other Gm's don't like him.. teams still tend to deal with him and he doesn't get beat up in trades..

Agree, Morey is not puting a gun in anybody's head, if he is getting good value for his assets, great, that's exactly what GMs should do.

I want to see us build towards a ring, and you have to have some youth on your team, guys who have their best ball ahead of them... that is how you improve from within... I was watching Jrue Holliday yesterday and I was like this kid gets better every year, right now, he is a handful... knicks don't have that young dynamic at any position.. Lin gave us that hope and pairing him with shumpert not only made sense, but gave us current and future building blocks..Now lin is in Houston with Harden and they are putting in work!!
THANK YOU GOD SOMEBODY GETS IT!!!! It's about building for the future, not just for a season that's what upsets me about this organization. Lin, Shump, Felton, would've been a nice moving forward.
