The Knicks see it as a betrayal and will play it up that way.


well if this is true...

Writes Berman, “The Knicks were bitter because they told Lin immediately the club would match the original offer and Lin apparently shared the information with the Rockets. Lin and Houston then plotted to redo it. Lin secretly flew into Las Vegas without informing the Knicks to renegotiate the contract and sign it.”



... it does seem like a bit of a betrayal. unless I'm misunderstanding, the re-done deal was the same money only moved around for the poison pill. so why do that to the Knicks unless he wanted to leave? seems like he was saying his heart was in Houston.

The first deal was four years for $28 million, this deal is 3 years for $25 million.
