Had they not signed Lin they would have had as close to a perfect off-season as you can get imo.

What was his contract like again? Was it like 3 years 25 mill? or something along those lines.

I've been saying since the beginning, signing Lin was a mistake, and I'm not just saying that because of the past 2 games. He's been average at best, Houston should have kept Dragic.

Agreed. I just never got the signing. Unless Houston's owner wanted Lin for marketing purposes.

Re: Houston Had 2 Point Guards Already Better than Lin
The worst thing about Lin is he had a run of good games and never played again until after he got a contract.
He knew it was a fluke and he would have been exposed before he could get paid for his fluke of good games. Houston got played and it's unfair. And I'm an OKC fan but still would have liked to have preferred to see Harden play next to Lowry or Dragic than Lin.

That sounds right. Pretty sure the 3rd year is backloaded

If Lin doesn't have a bounce back season for 2013-2014 I feel really bad for Houston.

Yeah, close to 15 mill the 3rd year.

With that said, letting Dragic walk was a mistake. Letting him walk and signing Lin? That was an even bigger mistake. Morey made a mistake but what can you do. I guess Houston signed him for marketing reasons? Not worth it IMO.

I think it was to hurt the Knicks chances of bringing him back. But they dodged a bullet.
