If you haven’t already heard,Linsanity is headed to Houston,, the Knicks choose not to match the Houston Rockets offer for the break out star. As a big Knicks fan, I felt they should of signed Lin back, the kid has a lot of potential, he was great marketing for NYC, and his game takes pressure off Carmelo and Amar’e.James Dolan and the Knicks made a tough decision. Today Lin was introduced to the Houston media as the newest member of the Rockets organization. Lin dressed to impress as he addressed the media in a swanky pinstripe suit polished with spread collar shirt and solid skinny necktie, you can’t go wrong with black and white. How do you think Jeremy Lin will preform in Houston??
