Created by someone called “I Am Linsane,” there’s an Internet petition designed to convince James Dolan to match the Rockets’ “ridiculous” offer.
“Jeremy Lin is the best thing that has happened to New York Knicks basketball in the last 20 years,” Linsane writes at www.change.org. “With Jeremy Lin as the team’s leader, the team won. Don’t let Jeremy Lin go — match the Rockets’ offer.”
The Knicks have until 11:59 p.m. Tuesday to decide whether or not to match the Houston Rockets offer for Jeremy Lin. But the Knicks’ official team store isn’t waiting that long to remove Jeremy Lin apparel from its digital storefront. There is no Jeremy Lin apparel available anywhere on the site.
Are Knicks making a big mistake if they don’t match Rockets’ offer?
