Just watched the game an hour ago.

They showed a NY Post front page line saying "May the Best Man Lin", with a picture of him and Kobe.

"All I've ever wanted was an honest week's pay for an honest day's work."
 

While he was dropping 38 points (and adding 7 assists and 4 rebs) on the Lakers.

"All I've ever wanted was an honest week's pay for an honest day's work."
 

lin seems like a nice guy and pretty good ball player, but im a nets fan. i kinda wish dwill just shut him down the first game and then he could do whatever,

 

It's a fucking BS comment. Was lucky enough to meet J Lin onetime and is the nicest dude ever / chill as fuck, just like all my Asian bros. The dudes pulling the Knicks out of a top heavy doldrum from Carmelo who can't do shit to win games without someone doing all the grunt work and dishing him the ball +50 times a game. Bro prolly has an 8 inch dong soft, no homo...I think at least.

He seems solid if not the product of 'no one else is scoring, so I'll fill it up'. Saying that, he's getting to the line and not hitting jumpers so I'm thinking he's the real deal. Amare will love playing with him, Melo on the other hand will not. Anyone see him on the bench, thinking shit, I'm losing my team.

Love how he took it to Kobe but I dont think he or anyone else thought anything of it. Great game for him and hope it continues for him. Love how the Knicks are repping the Ivy League basketball teams between Lin and Fields.

What are his exit ops when he leaves the NBA.

Actually, I don't think that's out of the question. Dude does have an AB in Economics from Harvard after all. Speaking of which, I don't even want to know how many marriage proposals this kid is going to get from Asian women and their parents.

 
notaspammerReally interested to see how Lin mixes with Melo and Amare when they get back. Melo's been kind of a black hole this year...but he kind of had to be because nobody on that team could distribute or run a good pick-and-roll.

D'Antoni's a good coach (at least offensively), I bet he finds a way to make it work

Amare will be fine because Lin will be able to feed the ball linside to him. Melo, however, will be interesting to see how that will fit. But like you say D'Antoni should make it work.

 

People saying Melo is upset that he is "loosing his team" are sorely mistaken. It was actually Melo and Tyson who implored D'Antoni to put J Lin into the lineup. They knew he was talented. We actually haven't gotten to see enough of Melo this season to know what will happen when he is inserted back into the lineup. He has been hampered by injuries all season and has been out for stretches. He can play with a good PG who makes good decisions (Chauncey Billups). It will work out just fine for the Knicks and if Lin continues to penetrate and dish like this, they can make some noise in the playoffs, especially considering that Amar'e's production should skyrocket.

Sorry, I forgot that you were privy to conversations between Knicks players and the coach.

Melo's missed 6 games.

Billups was a good PG in '04. And I'd hardly call jacking pull-up 3's with 18 left on the shot-clock 'good decisions'.

 

I wasn't a believer until last night. I thought "Oh, good couple of games, nice story. He'll be able to stick around for a while now." until last night.

He sliced the Lakers up. Shooting 56% over his last 5 games (including a loss to Boston before Linsanity started.) I'm hopping on the bandwagon, hoping he can keep it up.

This is unbelievable. Since when did Harvard create basketball players.

P.S Floyd is a retard.

League pass is extortion this year. Half a season and they hike the prices massively. Waiting for the playoffs and catching any game I can in local bars. There's this great sports bar in London open 24 hours so I've been spending quite a bit of time in there recently. Online feeds have sucked so far.

Holy shit she is dumb. But she's so hot I forgive her.

I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you.
 

Linsanity went off today against the Mavs. That 3-pointer in Dirk's face was fucking epic. Spike Lee looked like he was about to lose it.

 
neanderthalAmazing game... I didn't think they would win against the Mavs. But the Heats game is going to be brutal though :/

I'm pretty sure people were saying that before the Mavs game.
