Jeremy Lin's NBA career hasn't gone the way most of us basketball fans would have liked. After an underwhelming rookie season, Jeremy Lin was released from his rookie team, the Golden State Warriors of Oakland. Picked up by the Houston Rockets for some reason only to be released just as fast. Luckily, the New York Knicks picked Jeremy up hoping to shore up their back court and specifically the point guard position. However, since joining the Knicks, Jeremy had only seen action in 9 games before his breakout game. Jeremy even had no place to sleep the night before the breakout game. Opting to stay on Landry Fields couch.
But last night, Jeremy Lin ending up going head to head with Deron Williams of the Nets and helping his Knickerbockers pull out a victory. Jeremy also got the better of the all-star point guard with 25 Points, 5 Rebounds, 7 Assists, and 2 steals. Jeremy provided the spark that the Knicks have lacked of late on both defense and his court vision. Great job Jeremy Lin. Let's hope that this is the beginning of something more consistent!
