Wrong. Linsanity is over. It was a New York thing.

The NBA games have started and like Janet Jackson sung, "what have you done for me lately?"

Not Much

I miss Marcus Camby and Sheed.

the guy is the biggest star we had since ewing..

Unfortunately we are about basketball...We need ballers...Not into the reality star biz....We need guys on the court to man up....

I do feel he was overrated the hype was beyond ridiculous but he had talent and no question we gave up on a good talent. Hope he does well, he's a very classy guy and gentleman's gentleman.

We let him walk and got nothing in return is the biggest issue. Smart successful teams handle assets differently

I like most here wanted Lin back but not at those prices where it would just absolutely kill our flexibly going forward...I would have loved to see Lin here coming off the bench because I think he is a score first guard..I think it's important to have some one in the line up looking set up Amare, Melo and Chandler...Felton can do that...Felton and Lin would have been perfect for me...But to me, Lin saw a chance for personal glory in Houston..He saw the opportunity for him to have his own stage and he went for it...I'm good with that...I saw ESPN 30 for 30 show about athletes going broke...I think they have to do all they can to make the money they can, while they can...More power to em...But I'm won't sit here and try to blame Melo for something he had nothing to do with..Or Dolan for not matching that ridiculous contract...If Lin wanted to be a Knick, he could have called Novak and JR to see how it's done...

Meanwhile, I won't miss the nerdy pre-game show he and Fields had going on...For once in a long time, this team is focused on ball...Coach made his rounds over the summer to let people know he is serious about this season...Everyone has been working hard to bring their portion to the table...I'm not worried about the dude posing in GQ, trying to grab a few headlines...I'm worried about who is taking the charge in the lane come Nov. 1, old school Knick style !!!!
