    New York Knicks & Jeremy Lin: Old Grudge Hiding Behind Defensive Lies

    Two options: Either the New York Knicks havenā€™t watched a single Jeremy Lin game since heā€™s left the team, or their smear campaign against their former player is revived after a four-year hiatus.

    The official reason Jeremy Lin left the New York Knicks? They didn’t match his offer from the Houston Rockets because of what they feared their cap situation will look like with another big contract on the payroll. The real reason?

    Although the main reason behind not re-signing Jeremy Lin, letting him leave as a restricted free agent to the Houston Rockets, looks like a financial, salary-cap kind of reason, there are those that suggest that it’s just another example of how un-proffesionaly the New York Knicks are run by their owner, James Dolan.

  • Isiah Thomas Doesn’t Understand Why He Keeps Getting Fired

    Isiah Thomas didn’t last more than three years as the head coach of the FIU Golden Panthers, compiling a record of 26-65 in the Sun Belt conference, without making a mark on both attendance and recruiting at the school. Surprisingly, to him at least, he got fired from another head coaching job.
