Houston's multi-year offer to Jeremy Lin includes back-loaded money designed to hit the Knicks hard on luxury tax, source tells Y!

Good news there.

Lin has potential due to his great but short performance last year. Still have doubts on his talent level, however. NY and houston playing tug of war, we'd have to pay a shit load of money to get him to sign with us instead of Houston. It would be an extreme risk especially since he's coming back from a serious injury.

Wasn't serious. Was a pretty routine surgery actually. He was out about 5 weeks and probably would have played in the playoffs if the Knicks had extended the series to 6 or 7 games.

Now what happened to Baron? THAT looked serious.

made a lowry to raps thread, will be posting all source info there

DSWC · 07-05-2012, 02:07 PM

With a salary like Lowry's too, it may be a possibility that we keep Calderon, and eventually re-sign him to a (proper) backup PG's salary. I'd be ok with that.
