Sorry Clyde, not so much Linning and Winning as we are Standing Tall and Talented.

I don't blame the kid but he's going to have to work on that if he wants Hall of Fame.


His play during this streak has been mostly against bad teams

Jazz, Minny, and Lakers are not bad. Plus there was the novelty factor. He's settling into being The Man now, and the Hornets are below even the teams he crushed on the streak.

What I meant was that I didn't think Marbs' criticism was valid.

I don't think it's a matter of anyone not getting up for the Hornets. There's been effort, we've just been sloppy.

Just joking, no malice intended. Who knows for sure what inspires Lin, it's been 7-8 games. I do know the alley oop to Fields was SICK!

Believe it.

Can't overreact to any stretch of the game early on. The Hornets have to play at a high level for 4 qtrs not 1. Knicks will continue to put pressure on them at both ends so we'll see how it goes.

lin is having a REALLY bad game today.
ChuckBuck @ 2/17/2012 9:08 PM
Argh 8 TO's for Lin...might be a career high in TO's coming up soon tonight

That's where the effort is, in the crispness.

I am just happy we have the game back under double digits.
nyk4ever @ 2/17/2012 9:09 PM
lin has got to stop these ridiculous turnovers. i know he's young and i know he's the reason where we are right but he's seriously got to take care better care of the ball.

Halftime  
NYK 39 NOH 43
ChuckBuck @ 2/17/2012 9:10 PM
Awful first half and only down 4 pts...I'll take it.
MarburyAnd1Crossover @ 2/17/2012 9:11 PM
8 turnovers and within 4. Only Lin can do this.

Rumble young man, rumble! Thanks earl.

This game is a nice reminder that Baron still has a role here, and perhaps more than "just a backup". Still, refs are letting a lot go this game that have been called fouls for him during this stretch.
