    From the stream I was watching before it dropped out, he was shutting down Deron Williams on D, when he came in

    Pretty cool isn't it, seems a very like able kid as well, very humble.

    I don't like the knicks one bit, but I wish him well

    This is the one regard in which I am jealous of Knick fans. Mike Breen might even be my favorite on ESPN, and they get him as a regular commentator. Clyde Frazier reminds me of Bill Walton, and he is everything Drexler tries to be as a commentator. Terrific duo.

    From what I saw in his complete highlights, he has a weak left hand. Not once did he finish left or drive left for the finish. I'm sure teams will figure this out eventually and he'll be neutralized. Good game by Lin though. Being a real solid defender and having a decent jump shot should keep him in the league.

    Just watched the highlights, and I had a big grin on my face the entire time.

    Do people still think Deron Williams is a good defender?

    I'm sure that he will lead the Knicks to Eastern Conference dominance, and have future all-star career like other Rockets prospects or low rated bench player.

    That was an impressive show out. He definitely has shown flashes that he can be effective, but nothing consistent. I wantto see him do this for a couple games before I jump on that we should've kept him train. HE would've been parked on our bench anyways, but yea lets see him perform in a few games

    Congrats to Jeremy. He deserves it. I was hoping we could keep him on our roster somehow. He will have a very good NBA career. He's smart, basketball smart, with skills and a tremendous drive to succeed.

    He probably wasnt very productive by dantoni standard, but jvg was all over that decision in the second half. Lin was lighting up in dleague with triple doubles every other game. We should have kept him. He would be a nice backup to Lowry.

    Deron was playing too close with him. Teams will start sagging off and daring him to shoot the jumper. It was a good game by Lin but a lot of it was the nets poor gameplan. I need to see more before I declare him anything more than a scrub who had one good game.

    I had the same reaction, but then I started thinking about Flynn and got angry.

    But then I heard the PA guy play this and I laughed.

    He's a terrible defender.

    Something to consider if we acquire him.

    The nets never had a game-plan they're 8-17 for a reason...

    25/7/7 is a career night for 90% guards in nba.
    Look, this was really first game where he could play extesively and showd what could do in a close game. I can tell you based on just this one game he is gonna be solid at minimum.
    Now, if he can get used to the nba speed and knows when to penetrare like a true master such as Nash, he will have a very good future. Good guard skills take games to learn. Right now, he does play at one speed a liitle too much at times. I want to see him pnr with amare more He certainly isnt Derrick Rosw, and he shouldn't play like he is. Nash should be his game.

    Just want to add more to the inspiring story.

    Lin slept on Landry Field's couch because his brother had no space for him in NY.

    Nash can penetrate because he can shoot.

    Lin can't shoot that's the difference.
