Linsanity makes a temporary appearance as Jeremy Lin has scored 65 points in the last two games vs the Raptors and 76ers. However, the 34 point, 12 assist effort last night in Philadelphia was in a loss. A winnable game that was up and down until towards the end of the 3rd, when the Rockets pulled away to a 10 point lead. The offense came to a screeching halt towards the end of the 4th quarter. Basically going away from Jeremy Lin whom had 28 points at the time and 7 three pointers. When it came down to crunch time, Jeremy Lin missed 2 shots. How it got there is another story.
Two nights ago in when the Raptors visited Houston, Jeremy Lin put up 31 points in a double OT effort. Not a pretty game, but the Rockets lucked out and won.
In the game with the Raptors, Jeremy Lin attacked when he could and rebounded from a 1-5 first half to tear it up in the 2nd half. Towards the end of the 4th and into OT, sticky ball it was and it was ugly. How the Rockets won was beyond me. The bad play of the Raptors had a lot to do with it.
Jeremy Lin heads back to where Linsanity started, Madison Square garden tonight. With both teams not playing very good basketball. Here's to hoping for a career day for Jeremy and an actual start.
