I know...it does suck...the dude is such a great b-baller...what a shame he gets snubbed again...that's what he gets though...for playing in a losing team...I bet if he was with a winning team...he'd be chosen for sure.at least you guys have the all star Ellis
true that, he deserved to be there

Five in a row for the Knicks.
Lin and the Knicks beat the T Wolves 100-98.
Lin outscored Rubio 20-12.
...and the Lin Express continues...

Does he play hockey? Just kidding i do watch sportcenter. It amazes me he was cut without someone knowing the kid had it in him. It's a nice story right now, I hope he keeps it up.
he's good but he's in the spotlight right now because it's the Knicks..had it been someone like the Warriors he originally played for no one would've even noticed
I'm happy for him though, even though i despise the Knicks

Hell...if Lin played like this when he was with the Warriors...he'd be starting for them right now...and that's the point...

Golden State has some great loyal fans, they only cut the kid because they have Curry and Ellis and were hoping to get DeAndre.
It's been awhile since us Knick's fans have something to cheer about...give it to us, just this once
The kid is playing great. How many end of the bench, cut 2 times, and 1 week away from maybe being released by the Knick's can score 20+ and 7+ assets 5 games in a row? I am happy for him, great story.

It's a nice story, for sure. But, I feel like the end of the Linmania will be coming soon. Why? A couple reasons:
1. Right now, he's successful because the ball keeps moving in the Knicks offense. Once Amare and/or Melo come back, that type of offense will be gone. Ball stops when it gets in either of those two's hands.
2. There's not a lot of film available on this guy, so it's hard to game plan around him. The more film becomes available, the more (good defensive) teams will be able to identify and force him to do the things he doesn't excel at.
3. Lack of practice time kind of goes hand-in-hand with #2. There isn't film, but even if there were, when do you practice your defense of him? Teams that have a day or two to practice before playing the Knicks should be able to put somewhat of a lid on him.
I haven't seen a ton of his floor time, but he's been fun to watch for sure. There's no way he keeps up this pace and I think that soon he comes back down to earth and starts to put up slightly better than Devin Harris-type numbers. I'm thinking 14 points and 6 assists on a consistent basis, but he's got to cut down on those TOs.
