Looks like Jeremy Lin wasn't being Lindecisive when he decided where to play ball next year.

He's leaving the New York Knicks for the Houston Rockets after the Knicks failed to match the Rockets' three-year, $25,000,000 offer.

That's a whole lotta money.

Not as good as Kris Humphries who got only a million less for just two years! But still good.

Lin is clearly still excited, tweeting:

"Extremely excited and honored to be a Houston Rocket again!! Much love and thankfulness to the Knicks and New York for your support the past year… easily the best year of my life."

Hopefully Lin will do just as well outside of New York.

Let's see if Linsanity round two will start in Houston.

While we're not sure how someone can be double innocent, but hey, Adrian Peterson seems pretty adamant that he's 200% not guilty.

Last week, outside a Houston nightclub, Adrian allegedly shoved an off-duty police officer.

He then claims he's 200% innocent of resisting arrest.

Here's what he said:

"I didn't push, shove, touch anything or anyone, especially an officer. I definitely don't have a problem with the Houston PD. This involves two individual officers that I have an issue with. Once everything is settled, the truth will come out."

He said this after being in court this morning for his arraignment on the resisting arrest charge — but the arraignment ended up getting pushed back to August, though!

Adrian seems pretty confident! We'll be waiting to hear what the judge thinks!

After a month long investigation into Houston-area smoke shops, 10 people have been arrested.

Undercover cops infiltrated and recovered tens of thousands of dollars of drugs and $28,000 in cash.

The suspects are all being charged with felony possession of a controlled substance, which is the same as if they had cocaine.

Cops are starting to really crack down on the "legal" synthetic cocaine called bath salts.

What's so dangerous about them, is they're so new and the long-term and even short-term effects aren't really known.

Though most people have an idea of what they do… they make you go crazy, get naked and eat faces.

Stay away from bath salts.

This guy has had it ROUGH!!!!

Former singer Houston, full name Houston Summers, was arrested for DUI near Mailbu this week.

If this name sounds familiar, you must love your rap music, since Houston became famous in '03 for his song with Chingy and Nate Dogg, I Like That.

Two years later, he tried to commit suicide during a PCP-induced bender and gouged out his own eye with a PLASTIC fork.

Yep…GOUGED out his OWN eye with a PLASTIC FORK! So sad!!!

But this week, cops pulled
