    Thats sucks. Our draft pick now has a serious chance to be in the lotto though, lol watch the pick be in the lotto and for the knicks to win into the top 3...

    This could be a bad thing. Melo/Lin didnt really work out. With him out of the way, Melo can play like he normally does and Melo is capable of carrying a team to the playoffs. They just lost to the Hawks but they beat the Bucks and Magic without Lin.

    Knicks just lost 2 of their 3 best players. Any team that suffers those losses are going to have repercussions. They might win a few games from sheer energy, but eventually they're going to drop..hard.

    Our pick just became relevant. Knicks overplayed him, reminds me of Yao, when we overplayed him. J.Lin has defense, B.Davis has 0 defense. Knicks in the playoffs = 0 chance of winning a series, no defense = 0 chance against Bulls, or Heat.

    Losing Amare could hurt but like i said, Melo/Lin combo wasnt that special. If Baron can stop turning it over it could be addition by subtraction.

    No Amare, no Lin. Can Melo carry the load, or are we getting a lotto pick?

    Rubio and now Lin... Looks like Irving is questionable too with a problem with his shoulder...

    Interesting to see how many Asian Lin fans jump off the NBA bandwagon for the remaining duration of his rehab altogether :)

    (Side note: I'm asian too, but unlike some (or most) of the Lin fans out there, I only went along with the ride because I though it was a great story and he seemed likable, and yeah, maybe I did feel a little proud of our common heritage, but it was minor compared to everything else.)

    Please , for the good of the game, please stay off the bandwagon and go back to ignoring the game like you guys did before.

    That's what I'm worried about, Melo has been playing with purpose recently and should have even more motivation now that Lin's out. I don't know about the actual game, but the boxscore showed it was somewhat close with ATL. Melo + Lin is good. But Melo by himself is better. Amare has looked good recently, but the Knicks can still win without him
