I don't think Lin, solely as a player, deserves that type of money. But I feel like he's worth a hell of a lot of money to the Knicks in marketing and public support. Just seems mind-boggling that they'd take on Kidd and Felton and let a player with 1 billion fans behind him go.

With that said, I don't think Houston is going to get $25 million worth of play out of him. They'll get the marketing, but I don't think he is their answer. I'd be shocked if he comes anywhere close to Lowry in terms of productivity.
