Jeremy Lin lands in Houston Rockets,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]
Lin became a Rocket again when the Knicks decided not to match Houston`s three-year,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], $25 million offer."It`s been an unbelievable ride,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," Lin said. "Just a lot of things I didn`t expect to happen,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], in terms of just the way last season went. I still have to kind of remind myself that this is all actually happening,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], sometimes. But it`s a huge blessing. I can`t believe how it all shaped up and for me to be here right now. I`m definitely excited and thankful."Lin said he expected to be re-signed by the Knicks after he electrified the Big Apple last season before he was sidelined by a knee injury. "Before July 1, I didn`t even know what teams were interested in me. But all I was hearing was, `You`re going back to New York.` At that time, before free agency started, I preferred New York. When Lin hit a winning 3-pointer in Toronto on Valentine`s Day, owner Leslie Alexander called Morey to tersely ask him again why Lin was no longer a Rocket."He was killing me,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," Morey said with a smile. "I think one of the reasons Mr. Alexander is a great owner is because we`re constantly evaluating our past decisions and deciding what did we know at the time? What could we have done better? How can we improve?"People are making a lot of us admitting to our mistake,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," Morey said. "But the only way to get better is to quickly say, `That was a mistake. How can we do better next time?`"At the time Lin was released,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the Rockets had Goran Dragic and Kyle Lowry on the roster - two point guards with NBA experience. And who knew what Linsanity would become?
"We had very fair reasons to waive him," Morey said. "But the reality is, we shouldn`t have."The Knicks didn`t initially see his potential, either, dropping him briefly to the developmental league in January. He was initially overwhelmed by the media glare. "It was kind of baptism by fire. You get thrown into it and you`ve just got to make adjustments and learn. That`s a lot of what I had to do."While Alexander said the decision to pursue Lin was "all basketball,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," he acknowledged that he could potentially impact on the Rockets` brand in the way that Yao Ming did, expanding its reach in Asia. "If you get him,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and he`s not a very good player, you look like a fool. How does that help you in any way?"There`s an added caveat for Lin and the Rockets this season - the All-Star game will be played in Houston on Feb. 17. Yao was named to eight All-Star teams, largely on the strength of Chinese fans who voted online."It`s great for the city, it`s great for the fans, it`s great for everybody,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," Alexander said of getting Lin. "The sponsors,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], everybody associated with the team."On the court,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], though,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], all Houston really needed was a point guard. His aim is to improve his statistics every year - and how good they get, not even he would venture to guess."I don`t know what my ceiling is,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], I don`t know what my potential is," he said. "We don`t know what the ending is going to be. But I`m excited to find out."With Lin in place, the roster is still taking shape. Tendulkar was given the award.相关的主题文章:
