    Knicks aren't going to beat the Heat anyway.
    Unless Lin wants to rush back to a game four blowout I recommend he rest up and play next season.

    Knicks could use some turnovers.

    One way to stop Melo from bricking.

    He individually turned it over a lot but as a team statistically the turnover rate was lower with him on the floor, than without. I mean look at them today..they couldn't even run a competent offense, hence the tremendous amount of turnovers.

    i thought this was mildly entertaining until she started to say she could ball. getting owned by the 6'2" white girl made her look real stupid. for a second, I really did thought she could ball!

    Even with a healthy Lin, I doubt they beat Miami.

    The Knicks are much too inconsistent and lacking chemistry to really go out beat a good team 4 times in 7 games.


    With Lin, I honestly think he would flourish more so on another team that is lacking ball handler and backcourt playmaker.

    He'd be perfect for the Hawks, the Trailblazers, or the Kings.

    I agree with this and when Lin was up against Miami last time Miami's defense just took the dude out of all his comfort zones.

    He'll help the team play better but I don't see NY threatening Miami legitimately.

    The Miami defense is too good for Lin to play against. Yeah... Lin is definitely not a superstar. If it were any other team then Lin would probably play.

    Lin is not the same now as he was then. Guy was super fatigued playing under the MDA system.

    Hope he's not feeling the pressure to return early. Doubt his knee could hold up given the fact he had surgery just a month ago. The Knicks isn't going to win this series anyway, Lin may as well continue rehabbing and get ready for next season.

    i think with Lin back, even though they wont beat the heat, at least they'll play a more fluid offense by getting everyone involved instead of dumping the ball to ballhoggin melo, who's trying too hard to beat the heat by himself.

    Look for Lin to play in Game 5 unless Bibby is made out of Iron and can play without back-up, Oh wait, is Tony Douglas still in the line-up??
