38 points, 4 Rebounds, 7 Assists, 2 Steals
I bet you assume that stat line belongs to Kobe Bryant, one of the greatest scoring guards of all-time, right? Wrong.
Jeremy Lin the Taiwanese-American sensation solidified ‘Linsanity’ last night by dominating Kobe Bryant’s Lakers from the opening tip. He was seemingly everywhere. It didn’t matter if he was knocking down pull-up jumpers, making Derek Fisher look old and slow with spin dribbles into the lane, or knocking down back to back three pointers in the critical portion of the 4th.
The whole game I felt like asking “Who is that masked man?” and “Where did you come from Linsanity?”
Well wherever he came from, I like it and I hope he sticks around. Yesterday before the game THD’s Kevin Burke said “I think Jeremy Lin is actually legit”. I am pretty sure Kevin was right after seeing Lin dominate a worthy opponent and carry the Knicks to their 4th straight win.
