    Just saw that Lin was named Eastern Conference Player of the Week. Well deserved.

    The legend continues...

    There is no way he can sustain what he's doing right now, but I do hope he ends up with a long, productive career and doesn't end up being a Bob Hurricane Hazle type flash in the pan (google it; I'm really dating myself, but I had his baseball card when I was a kid).

    Unfortunately he is not on the rookie/sophomore game roster! Hope they change that up!

    Haven't looked back through the thread, but did anyone by chance hear the Mike and Mike song about Lin? Linsane in the membrane? Outstanding

    doing it again. 9 assists and 1 turnover in the first half. SAC has been trapping him and he's making the smart pass.

    Rose might be out for the ASG. They need to take Lin.

    Yeahhhh...no, not a good idea. What should happen, though, is that Blake Griffin should opt out of the rookie/sophomore game, and Lin should be selected to replace him there.

    While watching that I was thinking; "This Knicks team is not gonna be as good when Carmelo comes back". Maybe I'm wrong about that, but think what a deep, talented team they would be if they still had Gallinari, Mosgov and the draft picks. And if they had traded Felton to Portland and got Miller and a draft pick, they would really have been in good shape! Yeh, yeh, I know, if they had not made the trade they might have kept Felton and never signed Lin; so who knows?

    So a PF from the West, should be replaced by a PG from the East?

    Rookie-sophomore game is no longer East vs West, so conference shouldn't matter. As for a PG replacing a PF--absolutely.

    Yao seems to have a good artist mind. That was almost poetic.

    I wonder if they're considering a new Lin-oleum court for the Knicks?
