This is crazy. I can't believe it - looking forward to seeing what Stat and Melo look like at full strength with Lin.

Shumpert was terrific down the stretch. All of the sudden we have a deep roster and good defense. It's incredible what good defensive players can do.

Glad we won but Grunwald is going to have to make a trade or we will get killed in the playoffs.

Don't care if he hit the game winner 8 TO's is way too much. I had flashbacks to Jamal this game.

Yop, Shump hounded Calderon like a zombie in 28 weeks later. The guy just couldn't breath anymore.

YO the Knicks D has been straight STINGY in the 4th qtr of games. For those that said we can't defend, just look at the D this team is playing to close out games!!!! WHAT!!!!

this is the second Lin game i have inexplicably started screaming ARE YOU KIDDING ME in a good way in the 4th qtr.

OH MY!!!

I'll tell you something: Lin is young and heavily talented. He is also out of control at times. But his best quality is his confidence, his determination and his leadership. Often times, those qualities are used as empty words, but in Jeremy's case, they are as tangible as anything else.

The guy has such a strong will to win, works hard to get into that position and delivers that he carries everybody else with his play. He is the ultimate "leader by example".

Not to take anything away from Melo and Stoudemire, who are great players and important for our success, but I'm starting to believe, for truth, that our hopes on a magical season rest in Lin's shoulders. He can make this group of individual players an amazing team simply by playing his heart out like he is doing.

Lin leads this pack. It isn't hype.

This is Lin's team.

Whahahaha. Asking Lebron about Jeremy Lin after the Heat's win over Indiana. So weird.

Shumpert's D is really a major weapon. Unbelievable for a rookie. Had like 3 steals in the last 3 minutes.

BTW, what is the rule on what's classified as an assist? Shumpert passed the ball to Lin, Lin took a second to fake a 3, then drove with 3 or 4 steps toward a layup. (Yes, that was an assist)

I did the exact same thing (well, in French), this guy makes the games so fun to watch.
His enthousiasm is contagious and the team plays with heart and energy.

I still can't believe we won the way we did.

I'm so proud of the team right now.

Stop the madness.

Lin is good and he is ours.

All ours

Lin and Shumpert have unbelievable stats together. That's MDA's favorite tandem to closeout games. They've been ridiculous defensively in our wins. Before this game I read they were a collective +53 or something like that. They just work really well together.
