    This is why the Knicks aren't true contenders.

    Agreed, it's both but he still defers to Harden too much. I fear this is instructed by coaches...

    Which? The chandler foul? Chanlder had his hands on Lin's chest so I doubt it.

    He's got good paint instincts, al la Landry.

    The way the Knicks are playing, how is it they're only down 14? I love that were looking so dominant even if our D could be better :)

    TD almost always takes it on himself on 2-1 fast break. SMH.
    Good thing there were trailer guys there to grab up the rebound and put it in

    Meh, harden is the first option. But Lin should be this involved every game.

    And Harden is on the court at the same time, so we know it's possible. It's really just up to Lin to be aggressive. The coaches want him to be aggressive.

    Eh, he was in the air and got pushed by Chandler. Only a psuedo flop:grin:

    I don't get it. Knicks plays ugly interior defense, and yet they're ahead of the pack in the East. I can understand if they're around 4-5th seed, but #1?! C'mon!

    see, harden does not have to go teen wolf on every other play and he still is getting his.
    first half execution was flawless. Tyson chandler is a douche always doing something to our players when he is not winning.

    fun half of basketball, hoping we kan keep up the intensity.

    Idk why I cracked up so hard but I did reading this quote from a knicks board "Houston owns us. Reg season, finals, trades." Probably because it's always nice beating the Knicks haha

    OK. I'm convinced. Lin is awesome.
