Jeremy Lin Rumors & News

When July 1st comes, the Rockets will likely meet with Dwight Howard with a pitch involving James Harden, Chandler Parsons, Chandler Parsons' hair, and Jeremy Lin to try and sway him to come to Houston. Daryl Morey will step in front of a projector and show off the future championship rings Howard can win, the immense financial benefits to playing in Houston, and then gently massage Howard's abnormally large shoulders until he and Dan Fegan agree to come to Houston. That much has been known. But now, Jonathan Feigen reports that the Rockets' July 1st plans will also include another All...

After signing Jeremy Lin, Omer Asik and James Harden last year, the Houston Rockets need more cap space to sign a veteran max free agent like Dwight Howard. The Rockets acquired #5 overall pick Thomas Robinson at the trade deadline in February, a salary dump from the Kings. Now, according to Yahoo! Sports, they would rather have the cap space than a 21-year old power forward. The Rockets have made clear to multiple rival teams that they plan to accept the best offer to move Robinson and eliminate his $3.52 million salary for the 2013-14 season. Without the salary of Robinson and other...

I'm not sure I can follow up the rampant success that was the Greg Smith report card. The readers have spoken and certainly he is the most controversial player, an even bigger lightning rod than Jeremy Lin. I'll chalk that up to stuff no one expected ever. All the same we'll move on to a clearly lesser player in Omer Asik. The seven foot Turk was signed this off season from the Chicago Bulls via Daryl Morey's exploitation of the new Collective Bargaining Agreement. Asik was the highly touted back up center in Chicago under coach Tom Thibodeau (Of Jeff Van Gundy's defensive camp). Ome...

So, I've been dreading this piece since I came up with the idea to do report cards because you just know any write up relating to Jeremy Lin where a critique is possible is going to blow up the comments and my Twitter but you can't back down, right? Ah well, it's been my favorite narrative on the year and I refuse to be anything other than honest with you guys, so here goes nothing. Jeremy came to the Rockets over the summer on a deal that would have cost the Knicks 80 million or so with luxury tax penalties (Funny enough Madison Square Garden stock dropped 90 million dollars when ne...

Before the season started, and before the Harden trade, the Rockets were predicted to land under .500 by the end of the season. Even after the Harden trade there were several lingering concerns to be addressed that stemmed from doubts and skepticism behind several of the front office's offseason roster moves Can James Harden rise to the occasion and become a true first option? Can Jeremy Lin keep up Linsanity next to Harden? Can Omer Asik play starter minutes? Who will be our back-up PG? Will Chandler Parsons have a ‘sophomore slump'? What will you do with your avalanche of power forw...

Public Service Reminder: Aaron Brooks is on the Rockets and played 16 minutes in Game 4. Tonight, Rockets fans should treat Brooks and his 15 minutes of run like an ex-boy/girlfriend. Don't be surprised if he reminds you that you once loved him. Jeremy Lin is a game-time decision for tonight's Game 5 against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Lin left Game 2 with a bruised chest and started Game 3, but was obviously hampered and left the game for an ice wrap. Rockets fans can probably agree the Lin that started in Game 3 shouldn't take the court in Game 5. We applaud his desire to grit it ou...
