Victory at Madison Square Gard-LIN!

     Just as the New Orleans Hornets ended the Knick's outstanding winning streak, New York was able to redeem themselves this afternoon. This time the Knicks also had the help of the deadly 3 point shooter, J.R. Smith. He was signed to New York after playing for a professional team in China. Despite Friday nights loss, the Knicks were able to beat the Dallas Mavericks with a 104-97 victory this afternoon. Of course, the main hype of the game, the newest star of the New York Knicks, JEREMY LIN.

     Lin finished the game against the Mavericks with an amazing 28 points and new career high, 14 assists. It is unbelievable to watch this young point guard improve as his success continues. He brings a great amount of excitement to his teammates and fans with his game play and outstanding leadership. Many sports analysts continue to question if this "All Star" style of play will become consistent for Lin, and so far he has been keeping it up.

     Tyson Chandler has been a beneficiary of the LIN-SANITY, by receiving a number of open looks from Lin, giving him 14 points. He also grabbed 10 rebounds giving him another double-double. J.R. Smith had 15 points and went 3 for 9 with three pointers in his debut as a New York Knicks player. It is amazing though how Jeremy Lin has continued to shock fans with his skill to lead the Knicks to another win. This young man, alone, re-energized fans after being upset with a number of losses before his starting role. Let's see if this win today will start another winning streak for the Knicks.
