Knicks fans on "realgm Knicks" forum had a thread about this trade rumor. It immediately triggered debates between fans who want Lin back and those who don't want to give up Tim Haraway Jr or don't want Lin back. Yesterday, it had only 12 pages. Today, it's up to 44 pages before it got closed by the moderator
http://forums.realgm.com/boards/viewtopic.php?f=24&t=1304375I couldn't finish it. It's just way too long. A couple points:
- Some Knicks fans who don't want Lin back think Lin is an upgrade from Felton but Lin is still just an "average PG", not surprisingly, criticizing his defense, TO and someone brought up the Miami game.
- Many worry about "chemistry issue" with Melo. Most of them still want Melo to stay. I don't know why they still want to build a team around Melo. This IS Melo's team. He chose the coach he wanted to work with. He chose the players he liked and pushed out those he didn't like. And this is the record for a Melo's team. Yet, some still excuse Melo, saying he doesn't have players around him. Er...he pushed out better players around him. Now how could they find excuses for him?
- But Lin does have many supporters in that forum though. And there's a lot of passion to make it up to 44 pages!
