    Lin missed some easy shots tonight but still played good

    Had a tough bastard in Rubio guarding him a lot also

    Didn't understand why D'Toni didn't rest the kid more. I think I saw him played the entire 2nd half. That's insane.

    I wouldn't call any shot easy for him today after the first quarter. He was bumped around like a pinball. Off a b2b he did an awesome job continued to drive to the basket, and got that last foul that gave them the lead for good.

    Knicks stole a game tonight with a decent 1st half, fell apart down the stretch but saved by Novak's 3s, he is clutch if open. Really didn't think they'd pull it out, impressed to see them win without playing very well, obviously fatigued and on the road.

    Novak's confidence also came from previous games receiving feed from Lin. Remember with Lin playing, 1+1>2. With Melo, 1+1<2.

    First real test in my opinion was his 2 FT with the game on the line, hit one, good enough! Considering all the media and attention he's had this week, he did really well tonight in my books. It's frickin exciting to watch the Knicks less their big-money guys isn't it?

    It will be Melo ISO time, Lin brings ball up court, and throws it to Melo. And everyone watches.

    Amare will fit in nicely, since this is basically what he did all day in Phx.

    Just trade Melo to Magic for D12.

    The Knicks problem is that they have two Superstars playing the same position. D'toni would be a genius if he makes Amare or Melo come off the bench. If these guy look pass their ego's, they could be the best team in the East.

    Seems like he shoots from half court and hits 60%

    combined IQ of Knick starting 5 is 150

    Lin IQ = 146
    other 4 players combined = 4

    He has to make them start, because they won't play happily as non-starter. I think he is most likely to let Lin do a few pick-n-roll, and if all plays break up, pass to Melo and let him do his own thing at end of clock. Hope it works.

    Landry Fields is starting and he went to Stanford, so that's wrong. At least, as of now.

    Lin single-handedly won the game for the Knicks.

    PAULYPOKER is clearly an idiot.

    when the cat's away the mice will play. just try and win when fatass melo comes back. aint gonna happen. impossible. he ruins the tempo and refuses to run down the floor on defense after he throws up his bricks.
