Lin was the buzz of sports radio in Houston on Wednesday and the topic exploded on social media. About 18 hours after the move became official, the Rockets' Twitter page had picked up 3,000 new followers, and the Facebook page added 10,000 “likes.” Rockets forward Patrick Patterson is eager to work with Lin, and feels he is an ideal fit for coach Kevin McHale's system. “With the type of athletes that we have, we like to run up and down the court in transition. We like to do pick and rolls,” Patterson said before the Rockets' summer league game Wednesday night in Las Vegas. “And that's what he thrives well in: pick and rolls, getting to the basket, getting layups, creating opportunities for each player on the team on the floor.”
