“Linsanity” is over — at least in New York City where it all started with a bang back in February.
Jeremy Lin, the Asian sensation who lit up the NBA coming off the bench for the Knicks, is now a Houston Rocket. The Knicks passed on Lin before the Tuesday deadline rather than match the staggering $25 million offer sheet from the Rockets.
Sports purists say Lin isn’t worth $25 million, which includes a balloon payment of $15 million in the 3rd year of his contract.
Ironically, Houston dumped Lin before the start of last season. Many Red Nation fans don’t ever remember him in a Rockets uniform. Lin was claimed off waivers by the Knicks in December — and given a bargain basement salary of $600,000.
More from Sandrarose.com:
This is a strange move by the Rockets. They already had 2 proven PGs (Kyle Lowry and Goran Dragic) that were better than Lin but they let them go. Maybe they’re more interested in Lin’s marketing potential.
Whatever the case, I wish Lin much success as a Houston Rocket.
but the Rockets have already had an Asian…everybody forget about Yao Ming that quick???
OH OK.. WERE DID HOWARD GO?
Fugg pickin up a book i should of picked up a damn ball..
Morning Roses :wave:
He went from $600k to $28.3 million I wouldnt care who remembered me
Or worked for Rhi Rhi
Her accountant made 20% off of her touring and she only made 6%
I need to step my game up 
I understand securing your future and making money but Lin would have been able to get more than $24-$25 million in New York with both his pay AND endorsement deals.
I personally think that he will fade away when he gets to Houston. Who do they have? They were trying to get Dwight Howard but we all know that ain’t happening.
Lin is NOT worth paying $15 million during that third year

halle rushed to hospital after on-set accident .. again


i didnt know she and olivier got engaged
i like him tho. unfaithful and s.w.a.t.
Hubby thinks he will be a dud. Magic and Lakers talking a Howard trade. Howard who is still on injured list needs an attitude check.

Ri-dayum-diculous
LOVE OK SO ITS BETWEEN THE MAJIC AND THEM BOYS
@boogie
The movie gods must be telling that chick to stop acting because she is constantly being injured on set
Melo didn’t want him there. It was hard for him to see Lin taking his shine for shyt that didn’t have much to do with basketball.

—————-
Melo didn’t want him there because they were winning without CArmelo and with Lin.
As soon as Melo came back they took a nose dive….Melo is the problem and not Lin.

@Bnatural
I agree somewhat. It did help that they were playing a weak stretch in their schedule excluding the Laker win when Lin was going off. Like most sports though, once you’re not catching teams off guard being brand new and they get enough of a sample of your game they can gameplan for you and expose your flaws. Like when they played the Heat.

TY IF THEY HAVE GENDER CHANGE **TUCK AND PLUCK** CAN THEY LEGALY BECOME A WOMAN?
hiya, anna ! i cant keep up w/ HB’s luvlife. and they’ve bn engaged since march, silly
UPDATE: she was recently released from the hospital
Mornin’ Jenieeeeeeeeee
i dont visit that site but i saw the story elsewhere. the blog comments said jo’s been wearing a ring on and off all season of L&HH too, so the engagement, if it’s that, is not new.
who really knows tho ?
@ LAKES
@ Boogie they said Steebie proposed on the show and the producers filmed it
I’m so excited for Jeremy. People are forgetting what he did that got him to this point. He wasn’t a star on the bench and he wasn’t a star for the few minutes of playing time that he got before he was given a real chance to show them what he’s working with. He got here, because he showed and proved game after game after game after game. Is it even possible to be a fluke for 25 games straight? Whatever the case, Carmelo’s return shut down his game so he needed to get away from him for his own good. I hope Houston puts the time into helping him develope his game and not only will he bring in marketing dollars, but he will bring in wins if he has decent people around him. I’m really looking forward to seeing what will happen with him. We already know how the Knicks will fair with their two 24 million dollar boys.
yea yea yea… cant wait for the season Heatboys letsgoooo
Hes only good for marketing..next

Only since March? Wow, how time doesn’t fly. I think she wants to get married to get prove she’s stable enough to have full custody, and to get out of The State.
:wave: @ everyone.
@ Lakes hope you enjoyed your birthday.

He is proof of what being humbled gets you…
