Yeah I think that blowing up was a good idea too, but I still can't help but miss guys like Kyle Lowry and Luis Scola. I can also understand, but not exactly agree with, why they decided to pay Lin that much. It's a combination of them outbidding the Knicks and seeing Lin as an investment. Houston has a HUGE Asian market and Jeremy Lin slides right in there perfectly with Yao Ming now gone. I 100% completely agree with you on Asik though. He was the Bulls' back-up center, they weren't going to pay him that much and I have no clue why we did.
