    "Who?"

    I know of Steve Smith, who was a great scorer and NBA all-star in the 90s.

    Surely this Stephen "A" Smith has at least that same experience playing basketball at a professional level?

    Lin & Chandler do the pre-game handshake incorporating martial art move.

    If the coaches feel the same way, then this team is going to be bad. 22/8 is hardly a "breakout" game. I felt the ball distribution was pretty good. You make it sound like Lin hoisted 25 shots tonite and scored 38 points.

    Isn't it magical that when Lin's allowed to facilitate more, Harden's TO's went down?

    (and Lin's went up? Still not as bad as last year tho)

    Were Rockets fan, It's not about a player. It's a collective thing. Lin is a integral part of it.

    Games like these make me wish we were in the eastern conference.

    Great game by everyone tonight! Parsons was cold compared to the other Knicks game, but he was solid in everything else in terms of assists, rebounds, and steals. Asik still needs to learn how to finish, but I have faith he'll get there. Excited for our backcourt to continue developing chemistry.

    Lin chose not to pass the ball when he crossed half-court today. He is ALWAYS allowed to facilitate. If you notice the offense and the coaching weren't different today, Lin was different.

    Posting 22-8 and leading the team on a big run that effectively ended the game in the 3rd quarter is great for a young PG, especially in such a high-profile game as this one.

    Unsung heros like Delfino and Smith are really giving us a boost. Del was oor gainst his old team in Toronto, but tonight wow, he was great.

    Then breakout is probably not the right word. I guess what I mean is offensively aggressive while playing 40+ minutes.

    And yeah, we would definitely have a worse record this season. But I see this as a development year and as I said, I think it would make us a better team in the long run.
