Houston to give Lin 30 million over 4 years

[redzero]

At least the Asian Rockets fans don't have to change teams now.

A lot of his high TOs come from teams that are actually good at defense

Youll be disappointed if you expect Linsanity to average 6-7 TOs per game for an entire season. be at 3-4 per game, which will still be amongst the league leaders. still do alot more good than bad for the Rockets though.

I still don't like it, but it's reasonable. Dragic should get the same.

For the player.. its definitely overkill. But since Houston has an established Asian market, I think Lin surpasses his ROI. So from a business perspective, this is seemingly a good move for them.

I said 6-8 and of course that's just exaggerating for the sake of highlighting a point. Although, he will average 6-8 against defensive oriented teams.

Co sign

, I was hoping the Rockets are finally going to change their fugly chinese font on the team logo/jerseys.

decent backup PG that can be a nice 6th or 7th man but it's slightly overpaid if you give him 30m/4yr, 'll turn out another brendan haywood style of signing perhaps.

he's NOT a standard as you think he is tbh, taiwanese & mainland s hate each other just like the japs & s, houston are fooling themselves if they think lin could deliver them alot $ from asia like yao did. dude's from an island which's about the same size as virginia, not the mainland where 13 billion re ed bball fans reside in
