Possible Mike D’Antoni Connection For Future Reunion

Coincidentally, just a day prior on September 13, his old coach, Mike D’Antoni, who helped him to create Linsanity with New York Knicks in 2012 made an official announcement of not returning to Houston Rockets after 3 years of coaching tenure in Houston. Rumors are abound that Philadelphia 76ers, Indiana Pacers, and other NBA teams have interest to consider him to fill a head coach position. Jeremy Lin has been known previously to text Mike D’Antoni even after his NY playing days so there might be a possibility of a future reunion if Coach D’Antoni lands in a team that needs a veteran Point Guard position. A lot of things would have to fall in place but the timing could be ideal for a future reunion.
