They're trying to bully the Knicks organization into matching the offer sheet for this joke of a player .

Lin gets headlines. He sells tickets, makes news, and people talk about him. He would be an asset to any team who wants money.

As much as I think they shouldn't sign him. I have a small gut feeling that they should sign him.. Keep him 2 years since it would only be 5 mil a year.. If he can prove himself then bite the bullet and pay the extra money.. The upside on his promotional status and money he will bring in will help pay for it.. If he's nothing but a glorified back up then send him out before that 3rd year and move his contract.. You know Toronto would still be interested and I'm sure Houston would still be too.. If worse comes to worse he's good trade bait for Chris Paul if the time comes...

Thats actually 4 PG is Lin comes back.. They signed the 35 year old dude Pablo Pigrioni from Argentina too.. The deadline is tonight at 11:59 eastern time.. Everyone saying its pretty much done that they will let him walk.. But There's still a chance albeit a small one that Dolan could still pull the trigger...

At 11:59 E. it will be official !!!
