Around SBN: Jeremy Lin Continues Rampage, New York Wins On Road

Allan Houston sighting in Phoenix.....

check out henry abbott's truehoop on espn.com.  apparently Allan Houston has been working out in Phoenix.  anyone out there have any scoop on this. do we really need him.....or are we taking a page out of the spurs book and picking up old guys for a playoffs run?  gordan came first, but now allan houston.  is the suns medical staff that good?  Granted the last time I saw Shaq play anywhere near to this level was when his team lost to detroit in the conference finals before they won the championship the next.  Grant Hill can count the games he missed on one hand this year.  Ruben Patterson would have come to mind first or Gerald Green.

Both Mike Tyson and Michael Olowkandi

both work out in PHX, and Kandi man with the team.  That doesn't mean we picked them up!

It says it on Truehoop
He wasn't working out for the Suns. He was just working/hanging out with Grant Hill, who is apparently his very close friend.

No coaches were there or anything though, so I wouldn't look to much into this.

I don't really see the point
There's no way the guy is going to get any minutes out of this rotation...

OTOH - what could it hurt? Its not as if Pike is going to get minutes either.

Phx - where run and thunder happens

Isn't he still on contract with New York?
I thought he tried to come back this season in NY but it was short lived.
