Jeremy "Linsanity" Lin Joins Houston Rockets; Betrayed New York Knicks?
Jeremy Lin is officially a Houston Rocket. Now, we find out whether "Linsanity" can survive Texas heat.
The
Knicks confirmed on Tuesday that they would not match the three-year,
$25.1 million offer sheet Lin signed with the Houston Rockets on Friday.
The club declined to comment on the stunning development while Lin took
to Twitter to say, "Extremely excited and honored to be a Houston
Rocket again."
The decision was both financial and emotional
since Garden Chairman James Dolan was upset over Lin's decision to
restructure his deal with Houston last week to include a third year
salary of $14.9 million. Dolan, according to sources, felt he was
deceived by the 23-year-old Lin.
"Much love and thankfulness
to the Knicks and New York for your support this past year," Lin said on
Twitter. "Easily the best year of my life. #ForeverGratful."
Of course, team officials privately felt that Lin's actions over the
past few weeks were anything but grateful. They were upset that Lin
hired a publicist without their consent and were livid that the second
year point guard out of Harvard went back to the Rockets for more money.
As recently as last week, all signs pointed to Lin returning with head coach Mike Woodson even saying that Lin would be his starting point guard and that newly acquired Jason Kidd would serve as the back-up.

Jeremy Lin to play on London Olympics 2012 for Team USA; Not for Chinese Taipei team
COLORADO SPRINGS – New York Knicks guard Jeremy Lin, whose rise from obscurity to NBA stardom captured the world’s attention, was among 13 young players named on Monday to the USA Select team.
NBA 2012 Rookie of the Year Kyrie Irving of Cleveland was also among those selected by USA Basketball for the squad that will serve as training opponents for the US Olympic team of NBA stars that will compete in the London Olympics.
The Selects will play training games against the American squad at the Olympic training camp July 6-12 at Las Vegas, Nevada.
But in addition to producing top efforts from this year’s collection of NBA Olympians, Lin and his teammates are taking their first steps toward the 2014 US world title defense and the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympics.
“The Select team has an excellent collection of talent,” said USA Basketball chairman Jerry Colangelo.
“The group has outstanding speed and versatility, some excellent shooters and some very good size.
“It will be great to have them involved in USA Basketball and in the national team pipeline for our next quadrennium.”
Lin, an Asian-American whose parents are from Taiwan, had been cut by two NBA clubs and was on the Knicks’ bench when injuries to two starters forced the former Harvard University player into the lineup.
