Definitely. Wish there was a way to keep both he and Smith for next year.

Magic has a big a crush on Lin as anyone in the media. That's just a great endorsement to have.

Baron may play in the 2nd half.

Hilarious.

No fear. Lin gets involved everywhere on both ends.

Best part. He is a quick study. Zero turnovers against the world champions

He shows up for the big games. The Hornets, they are petty to him.

This is why he will be a beast in the playoffs.

Is that your theory

It's the truth. Guy did the same thing in college.

Carmelo Anthony is ANTI-BASKETBALL

magic is honest. He called lin out on his turnovers. But if you think about it magic has been dead on. the kid is a great pg especially in the paint

This would be a great win to get while this team is in transition.

There are many parts to get in sync but there are great signs of unselfish play

JR Smith stepping in with no practice and making alert passes is a great sign

Lin shooting (and making) the floater over Dirk is a thing of beauty, which we all know is a joy forever.

D'Antoni will earn his paycheck distributing minutes.

Tyson Chandler is THE Captain.

Yeah that's what I felt. Thing is we had hopes that Lin could play well and stick here. It's not like we didn't think he had any talent. It was about opportunity. Just glad he never pouted or gave up like Darko did. Lin could easily have done that when he got sent down. CHARACTER!!!

Lin doing a great job adjusting to the double. Smith is going to be a big help if he can stay within a team concept. No hate on 8. Glad to be getting Jorts back, we need another big body out there who can also drain a jumper.

I don't believe we have to worry about deals for Stat the way things are going. Unless he picks it up big time his value just isn't there except maybe as a draw in his hometown. I feel bad for him, he's had a rough year and his body is giving out on him.

Yes, but the newsday journalist said he'll probably only play tonight if it's a blow out, and is more likely to play tomorrow

"Never underestimate the heart of a champion"

The Mavs will make a ferocious second half run.

Win or lose, the Knicks will learn something valuable from this big league test.

Melo on his way back, Baron coming and JR Smith. It feels like Christmas.

Lin's mid range jumper has been wet. Much better shooter that his original scouting report says....if he can hit that jumper on the reg, watch out....
