Maybe they are going to let Lin walk...

----

LAS VEGAS — Months after the Rockets gave Jeremy Lin to the Knicks, eventually launching the season of Linsanity, the Knicks seemed ready to give him back.

The Rockets moved significantly closer to landing Jeremy Lin on Saturday, a day after he signed a three-year, $25.1 million offer sheet with them, when the Knicks moved in the other direction.

While the Rockets struggled through Friday evening and all day Saturday to deliver Lin’s offer sheet to Knicks general manager Glen Grunwald, the Knicks reached agreement to bring another point guard to New York.

The Knicks will acquire guard Raymond Felton in a sign-and-trade deal with Portland, Felton’s agent, Tony Dutt said.

The addition of Felton could give the Knicks reason to let Lin walk. In the third year of Lin’s heavily back-loaded contract, he would cost the Knicks roughly $45 million in salary and luxury tax. Felton is expected to sign a contract that would be worth between $3 million and $5 million that season.

Still have no idea if the rockets will land Howard.

      Clowney released

      By Basbear · Posted

      MHS, You are missing Claudin Cherelus is a LB that's in the mix for the 4th spot. He's been here for 2 years and had a couple injuries. I mean he was a wavier claim and been here for evero system, just had bad luck when given a chance. Jon Rhat is the current leader mainly cause of he is the ST ace. But Id say, Cherelus has the same % to make the roster.  CB has the recent wavier claim of MJ Devonshire a 2024 7th rounder. He's got the good-great combine numbers but he's small size. Still he's in the mix for backup duties, in fact all the non-UDFA are wavier claims.  ______________________________________________________________   Dam shame about Clowney. I view this as a bad move. I feel clowny is well worth the 7.7, even as a backup. He played hard the whole year without help. I just feel he would have helped more than either DJ Johnson or Barno.  My only cope is he's 32 and at any point his miro-knee could force him to drop off a cliff performance-wise. I wanted to keep him around at least until the trade deadline and if no chance at playoff, flip him for a anything. NFL is a meat grinder, no love for locals....

      Might as well. We need to get these rookies on the field and see if they can play ASAP.
