    Jeremy Lin is Going to the Lakers

    The Lakers will send cash and rights to an overseas player to the Rockets, but no salary back.

    That could be enough to clear cap space for Bosh and to match Dallas offer sheet to Parsons.

    Jeremy Lin is lucky he played so well for the Knicks in that short period of time. His stock is definitely dropping.

    Rockets got royally screwed by Bosh. Now they have to make a decision on Parsons and they have another unanticipated problem with the Asik trade to New Orleans possibly off.

    I definitely root for Lin. But going to the Lakers could be a career stopper. Hopefully he can create for Kobe to hit shots.

    Didn't Kobe say he was the biggest advocate to get him in there?

    Hopefully Kobe recovers. The man can still get 40 pts a game if he's healthy.

    I think he got screwed in NY and then in Houston was not used to full potential.

    Could be sooner if Sterling gets to keep Clips. Doc becomes available and CP and Griffin would follow as FA. But fukk LA. Celtics fan.

    Ainge is just going to bide his time and stockpile assets. Rondo will be showcased for first 2 months or so and be shipped out.

    Ainge is my least favorite Celtic of all time. Team will begin to leak anonymous source quotes about Rondo being unhappy and disruptive and Boston media will eat it up so public is ok when they dump a top 3 pg for pennies on the dollar.
