Beat me to it. It's a lazy nickname like D-Will or D-Wade, but I agree - it's simple and rolls off your tongue easy.

Lin will be better. No more of those missed alley-oops and rolls and bone headed jumpers with 8 seconds left on the clock.

I hate this freaking move. Can we wait atleast for another good game before promoting him? geez

Let him continue to come off the bench. What's the rush ? He'll still be logging in heavy minutes.

Maybe because it raises the confidence of the surrounding players, thus making the team better overall?

shouldn't we start shumpert with him? Fields and Lin is kind of a slow backcourt.

Saw someone on Home of the Knicks call him John Stockting. Racist, but pretty damn funny.

D'Antoni's treatment of Balkman has been one of my big frustrations thru last year and this season.

I hope he lets the kid play +25 minutes tonight and let the chips fall.

Balk would help us get out in transition.

Release the Balkman!
