every shot a player takes sounds like it's a game winner...

them and the celtics announcers are among the worst...

It was painful because the Knicks were struggling. TSN and Leo Rautins were solid and fair. Lin WAS turning it over and they did not play favorites. Calderon was inspired and lit Lin up, plain and simple. We came back from 17 down. The storyline of the game thread matched the uncertain mood of the game. Then Shump stepped in. The Knicks finished strong.

The ending call when the Toronto play by play announcer Matt Devlin summarizes Lin's shot with, "Stage Presence... WOW!" was perfect.

same. hated it

I also love the little chukle at the end when Lin makes the shot.

the chuckle is priceless. it sums up the whole phenomenon. such a feel good story.
