Yeah, Shaolin is good. Don't expect the hyphen to survive though.

Ye of little faith---I'll take the over---no way TD replaces Lin as the starting point guard in the near future, if at all.

I tell you what, if this kid miraculously helps turn the Knick's season around, he's King of NY. I think he has a better than average chance since they are playing much better. He really doesn't have to look over his shoulder unless he just flops. He is being thrust onto the biggest stage at the very time all attention is turning toward the Knicks (GO GIANTS).That kind of pressure either creates stars or scrubs.

Best move made by the idiot coach all season, but it was only made because jobs are really at stake. Let the kid play! The Lin streak continues!!!

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!

Balk is going to look real good if he ends up playing with Jeremy Lin. Frusterating to see balk play with Toney Douglas, there have been a few times balk was open in transition for a simple pass or an ally oop and douglas wouldnt even attempt to pass it.

Im really hoping Walker gets injured soon so Balk can get some more minutes, i as well am really frusterated at Balkman not even being given a chance.

Some of you dudes are bonkers. Do you realize our season now completely lies in the hands of an incompetent coach and a D league talent at starting PG. We are royally screwed.

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

The "rush" is simple. Neither TD nor Shump are PGs---Lin clearly is---in addition, you ride the "hot hand."

MaseInYourFace · Post #314 » by **MaseInYourFace** » Mon Feb 6, 2012 6:01 pm

He had one good game. We are turning to him because we have no other alternative. This is about as desperate as you can get...

Ride the "Lin train, sir." Hop aboard!

I DO have to say I'm more looking forward to this game than any other in weeks---Lin to the rescue 8-)

This thread goes to show how racist America really is. Not maliciously racist, but through stereotypes - which cause negative repercussions on a more systemic scale.

How many Asian male actors do you see in Hollywood playing roles not related to Kung Fu or the bad guy? How many do you see actually kissing a girl?

For white people (and through the media, black people), "Asian" stands for sex, martial arts, and food.
