I have no idea what to make of Jeremy Lin’s amazing hot streak, including tonight’s 38-point explosion.
The team was in free fall, lack floor leadership and spacing thanks to terrible point guard play. Lin has now managed a terrific four-game stretch and the Knicks have won four straight.
Amar’e comes back Monday, Melo soon after and, while some see problems when this happens, I’m hopeful that Lin can continue to provide floor leadership. When Baron Davis is healthy that will give the Knicks a solid rotation — Stat, Melo, Chandler, Lin, Davis, Field, Schumpert and a forward.
Providing Linn is for real.
