![]() You can see that Lin's skills were already there in his HS years. Love the assist.

![]() Give Lin a lot of credit last night. Toronto came out and were prepared to stop him--they clogged the lane--ran doubles on him--and Lin adjusted in the 2nd half--lowering his TO's getting better flow and took his opportunities at better times in smarter positions than the first half. Moving Shumpert into the lead d guard position was a great move by MDA--it seemed to take pressure off Lin--who subsequently raised his game on the O. You read where Lin did not play well--but I think he played very well.

I think going forward, at least until Baron is back, we have to keep doing moves like this to take the burden off Lin as far as energy expended goes. I don't think any of us can compare a 6 game stretch like this in any sport. I am beaten in a good way from it. There are no words, really.

![]() You can see it in HS too. He has a knack.
The last 2 games, teams have tried to stop him. They have a bit and Lin needs to protect the ball better. However, as the game goes on, he adjusts and raises his level of play. It's remarkable and uncanny. |
