People, Can You "Lin" Me Your Ears

I have stayed away from the topic all week except for a few tweets here and there. I love the fact that the Knicks are probably the third best team on the East right now. I just wanna ask everyone including the media to slooooooow down on this Lin thing a bit. Jeremy Lin is doing great things and is a great story, however lets take a good look at the whole Story. The Knicks have beaten New Jersey (8-23), Utah (14-14), Washington (7-23), Lakers (17-12), Minnesota (14-16), Toronto (9-22), and Sacramento (10-19)....that means with J. Lin at the helm, they have only beaten one team over .500.  That said, he has only played one top ten point guard, Darin Williams. Lets not get it twisted, I think he is playing fantastic and I know that most of the wins came without Melo and Stats, but really people...."the best"...."unstoppable"...."Lintentdo"? NOT AT EXACTLY. Lets give the guy some credit. Lets watch the Knicks grow, but lets not crown them "Kings of the East" until they win a playoff series. Watch out for Philly, Chicago, and Miami.....and not in that order.

Wait and see......but in the meantime, congrats Lin-sanity!

Oh T4, you didn't know? Jeremy Lin is being card the NBA's Tim Tebow. The reason; Jeremy Lin is unashamed of being a Christian and as a matter of fact, Lin wants to know how he can bring God even more glory (http://m.christianpost.com/news/jeremy-lin-is-the-new-tim-tebow--69548/). This being said, I would like to throw this out to all sports fans; I have said that in 2012 Christ has HIS hands on his children and will raise them up so that HE is lifted up. We have seen this in the rise of a mediocre quarterback and now in an obscure point guard . This is not accident and don't be fooled into thinking that it is a rare coincidence or that this Lin thing needs to slow down because we are jumping the gun. Simply put, it's faith and being unashamed. This young athlete knows he doesn't need nicknames like "Black Mamba" or "King" because he serves The King.
