    How come nobody on this board will call out guys for using derogatory asian terms like gook, chink, chinaman. Why does NYsports have to say chink David. These kind of comments just show how much rascism there still is towards Asians in America.

    Melo needs to come off the bench. He will be a chemistry cancer to the first team line up of Tyson Chandler, Jeremy Lin, Amare Stoudamire, Iman Shumpert and Steve Novak.

    Landry Fields, Melo, Josh Harrellson, Bill Waker and Toney Douglas is still a bad @ss second unit.

    that would be the celtics golden ticket. knicks would never go for it, they have enough 3 point shooters

    Just got back from this game. Never been to MSG (or Asia) but it felt like I was there tonight....

    Place exploded when Lin made that three -- like Toronto thought he was a Raptor for a second.

    Really thought I was in New York.

    Raptors coughed the bit in the fourth but overall I have to hand it to them they hustled and played tough. Had a playoff type atmosphere. Entertaining game. Kid can play. The buzzer beater was the icing on the cake but the rest of the cake (fourth quarter) was pretty damn good too.

    Hate to rain on his parade, but he's gotta get the turnovers down. Turning it over 8 times in a game is not going to cut it for long.

    Someone needs to stop this kid. It's getting out of control. He doesn't understand that these games are business. Lot's of money at stake. It's the NBA for crying out loud. Your not supposed to keep winning that much. lol

    I wonder who made a killing betting the 1996 Chicago Bulls (72-10). Imagine Jeremy Lin was their PG?!?

    80-2 son.

    Yeah all those racist stereotypes about him being intelligent, hard working, and respectful of others. RACIST!

    Melo will be the destruction to this team. The guy is a pure scorer like Iverson, he needs the ball in his hands early to be effective. I watched virtually every Melo for 7 years in Denver and I know. If this guy doesn't get his touches early, then he doesn't shoot well the the rest of the day. Melo is not like Kobe, where he can go from cold to hot in a matter of minutes.

    Will be interesting to see how this drama unfolds.

    Sure, if he can.The thing is, it's still only been a week, so teams haven't had a chance to plan for him. I want to see how he does when he plays against elite PG's and teams and when teams start game planning for him with advance scouting.

    If you noticed today's game compared to other games played.....Jeremy Lin every time he came off a pick n' egg roll and drove to the hoop, Toronto had three guys surrounding him. It turned out to be effective.

    Basically he had no one close to throw the ball too when in reality there should have been two guys wide open. D'Antoni needs to adjust this and get the two open guys on his team driving to the bucket with Jeremy.

    So the other team's just forget about Amare and Melo thenYou can game plan all you want, this is not the NFL. NBA executions breaks down more often, that's why you see so many few teams that consistently performs well defensively.

    Dude got ability's to be a point guard in this league. If he's guarded one on one, he should have his way with most players.

    Hey Baskets, nobody else saying it's messed up for NYsports referring to Lin as a "chink" david just proves my point. To a chinese american being called a chink or gook is the same as you calling a black american a ******. I did not say America is rascist towards Asians. I said you've got some people that show these feelings. As a chinese american, what am I supposed to feel if you refer to me as a chink. You really don't think that's a rascist comment.

    And by the way Asians don't get a free ride to college. Did you know that Asians have to score on average 100-150 points higher on the SAT to get into the IVY league to get the percentage down to 20%. I went to UC Berkely which is the top public college in California. The year I got in they were still using affirmative action and the Asian population was about 35%. My 2nd year, California outlawed affirmative action and guess what the asian population went up to 42%. By the time I graduated, it went up to 48% and whites were at 45% so without affirmative action you could say whites became the minority with blacks and hispanics.

    LIN = TEBOW.

    The guy is a turnover machine and he will eventually settle down. Im enjoying watching it unfold though.

    Lin playing great, just hope he can shrug off all the negative comments. You can just feel that hoards of rednecks are waiting for this baller to trip and the hatin aint gonna stop. Its not just america, its what the world has come too.

    Racism is def a problem but what can u do. Punks like mayweather aint helping the situation.
