Take on Jeremy Lin


 After Sunday's win against the Mavericks, the New York Knicks improved to 6-1 with overnight sensation Jeremy Lin running the point. The win also moved the Knicks to .500 for the first time since the early parts of the season. Ironically, all of this is going on without their superstar Carmelo Anthony. Many people think that, with the way Lin plays, Melo will not be able to fit in and the team will regain their losing ways when he comes back. My opinion on that is Melo is very willing to adjust his game as long as they are winning and he gets the last shot at the end of the game. Lin took the game winner against Toronto a few nights ago but will not mind letting Melo get his shot, he is an unselfish guy and really admires Melo's ability. The Knicks, with Melo and now J.R Smith are quickly becoming dark horses in the eastern conference as they continue to climb in the standings. My feeling is that the Knicks will get to the eastern conference finals and eventually lose to the Miami Heat, if they can avoid them before that round.
