Pretty sad how good the Knicks are looking without Melo and Amare since when they comeback it'll probably go back to how it was. Right now though it's looking like how Dantoni wants his offense to look with Lin running it.

I don't know, we won pretty decisively last night, and by a way better margin than before when we played the Wizards WITH Amar'e and Melo in the lineup. Jeremy Lin IS the answer, there's no better way to put it. In practice he analyzed everyone like a computer. He knew everyone's hot spots, what they're good out, how they look to get open etc. He's a pure PG, the best pure PG on our team. Things are looking really good right now considering Baron won't be back until at least March, and I'm one of the many who think that he won't be the old Baron from 06-07. But that's pretty obvious, anyone with a brain knows that.

Here's to Jeremy Lin being the PG of the future.

I know I was saying they looked better without those two because Dantoni's offense got to be ran properly like it's supposed to. What I was questioning was if they would be allowed to play like that with Melo and Amare back in the line up. Not so much Amare as Amare will florish with Lin as that's all Amare knows is the pick and roll offense but Melo not so much as he loves to hold on to the ball and iso. If they can get Melo on board with playing off the ball they will be damn good.

Knicks fans probably hoping Melo and Amare never comeback the way Lin and the Knicks are playing.

Blazers win, Lakers lose, I hate both OKC/UTAH so either of them winning is bad news while either of them losing is good news for me.

How about that shit! Jeremy fucking Lin! I love this guy. Very humble, completely deserving of all this. Works hard as a kid and a teenager, gets into Harvard, gets a 3.2 GPA there, and goes on to score 38 in the garden with Kobe Bryant guarding him the entire game. What a story.

Kobe guarding him the whole game? Fisher made him look like well how any PG but Deron looks versus him lol. Fish and Ron made me want to punch a wall in the 1st and 3rd. I can't wait to next week when JR becomes available on the 15th and Arenas has his work out so the Lakers can get 1 or both to stop the bleeding Derek and Ron cause

Metta World Peace just seemed like he wanted to be in there to start a fight and nothing else.

As for Lin really happy for the guy went from not knowing he was gonna be on the team to being a hero in NY atm. Baron mine as well just get used to sitting in street clothes.

Ron Artest on Lin:

Q: Did the Lakers talk about him in the locker room?

A: Do we talk about him? Yeah, we talk about him. We think he needs a better haircut. I don’t like that style. You’re in New York, the fashion capital. Change your haircut, OK? You’re a star now. Wear some shades. Shades, OK? Put down the nerdy Harvard book glasses. Put on some black shades, OK? With some leather pants. Change your style. Fashion.

Q: Do you wear leather pants?

A: No, I won’t wear them, but he should wear leather pants. He’s the type of guy who should wear leather pants, some nice shoes and change his fashion. You’re Jeremy Lin, for godsakes. You know what I’m saying? You know? Put down that law book, stop reading the New York Times and start reading the Daily News. Newsday, that’s the one. I like that one because there’s always color in that one. What else? Wall Street Journal. Get some swag. You’re in New York City. Put your hat to the back, too. Put your hat on backwards. Come to practice with your pants sagging and just tell them, 'I don’t feel like practicing.' Practice? You know? Practice? And wear an Iverson jersey. You know? Come to practice with a cigar. Lit. 'I’m Jeremy Lin.' You know? He should change. We're all excited to play tonight. It’s like the first time for everybody. Everybody’s excited. Kobe’s excited. He wants to get 50. He wants to welcome Jeremy Lin to his new level."

I lold so hard
