Really?

Ya really he has played the most minutes moron lol

Please bless us with more of your brilliance, or wise one. Yes, people should not have been complaining about MDA not playing Lin this whole time. Of course not. And why not or wise one? Oh , its because he played him more than anyone this game. Oh, yes, thank you so much, it all finally makes sense. You contributions to the board are invaluable, how else would we know that "people" should not complain about Lin not getting playing time? You tell all those "people" !!!!
dude relax you sound like a girl on her period. Dude i wasn't insulting you just kidding around. Im thrilled we won. here we come baby

Lin played great. Great to watch also. Penetrating, scoring, assists.

And MDA has changed his style of play. No SSOL. Slowed down to half court with Lin penetrating and dishing/or shooting. Only 14 shots from 3 pt. today Yesterday I think only 13. So MDA has changed strategy and it is paying off.

Then don't trade half the team for him...That's a real expensive decoy...

Agreed

Damn you boys love living in the past. The trade is done and over with. Get over it, move on and enjoy tonight's win.

i do enjoy the win. But i have hated the season and the trade which you say "living in the past" has kicked our ass for a year now so we have every right to complain

I don't think anyone one of us has enjoyed this season but the season isn't over. Still alot of time left to make this season enjoyable. Crying over the trade is way old already.

Like i said people have the right to do that until we see good results thats just the way it goes man. Look if you're fine with it thats cool but some people aren't so you are gonna have to accept that until we see progress


I'm fine with it but don't really have to accept anything. Some of you guys are 2 much. Melo could drop 50 in a game and the Knicks could lose the game and the argument would be if we had more depth Melo wouldn't have to score 50 and the Knicks would have won if Felton was running the point.

So fair weather fan...Climb on the bandwagon when it's going the right way...Nice...

I've been a knick fan through the worst shit the last 10 years. im not a bandwagon as some fags are. Im a fair fan when someone isn't playing well i call them out but i always root for my team to win.

It's OK, he was one of the RATS that jumped ship a long time ago. He's got no right to say anything at this point. All Hate all the time B.S. I hope the Team goes on a win streak just for all the guys that have been pissing on the team during the struggles. No sense of reason or understanding. Just trade this guy. Fire this guy. This is 4 straight games where this team has fought hard and not given up. A win, two tough losses and a win. They've gotten better. Lin is a huge plus if he can keep playing well. Not expecting this every night, but he can play.

Clean @ 2/4/2012 10:16 PM
Anyone notice this was the first game we avoided constant ISO's in the 4th quarter? This is what an actual PG can do.

Again, PG or not, he is the man responsible for this team being unprepared to compete on a nightly basis.

I actually dont hate melo. I think he can be a great player if he got his team involved more liek tonight. the problem is you dont like to criticize him even a fraction of the time lol

yeah. that's why i was waiting on baron. he doesn't have to be superman, just changes a LOT about what gets stagnant on this team.

if j lin can do it, too, so much the better.

a PG rotation of baron and jlin would be nice.

J Lin reminds me a lot of Goran Dragic from houston (who is really good and was a d'antoni disciple, too)

Damn happy to see that.

MAN. Really. It was great. It looked bad at 1st but then Lin got in there and got comfortable and started BALLIN! I mean he was great on both ends! He had more layups than any guard on the Knicks this year. He made Deron his Bitch!!!

really? they didn't compete against boston and chicago? they just surrendered? they competed, man, they just lost because they aren't very deep which has a lot more to do with dolan's decisions than d'antoni's.

Clean @ 2/4/2012 10:21 PM
TD quietly has a +9 tonight as backup SG. I have to give him props when they are deserved.

I remember watching a summer league game last year where Lin(undrafted) dominated John Wall (#1 draft pick.
Lin also played tough D on Deron W.

I'm not talking about this week's games, but rather the entire season.

Totally effortless and unacceptable coaching.

CrushAlot @ 2/4/2012 10:21 PM
Lin fixed a lot tonight. He went in at the 8 minute mark of the third quarter and didn't come out. I hope D'Antoni sees the difference he makes when he is on the floor and puts him in the starting line up. I like Guns idea of starting Lin and Fields with Shump coming off the bench at the point and Toney at the 2.

Lin replaced what was missing at the top of our offense. He was able to run the PnR effectively and get penetration to breakdown the defense. His passing was on target and his court vision is legit. Basically what we've been missing.

Stagnant couldn't be the more perfect word. Lin kept it moving, specifically toward the bucket and his D was ridiculous. I couldn't believe it.

And I am one of the biggest JJ haters and he played a terrific game as well while Amare was in foul trouble.

Very relieved and the next 3 are very winnable games.

Are you done talking out of your ass? STFU, cuz you don't know what you're talking about. GOD PLEASE SHUT UP!

StillaKnicksfan @ 2/4/2012 10:24 PM
He can score, but he doesn't have to. His defense, passing and iq is huge for us. Hopefully he can build off of this.
