Embracing the Linsanity (Part 2)

After watching Jeremy Lin distribute the ball on Wednesday night against the Kings, I was amazed at the dramatic paradigm shift in the Knicks' style of play. Ball movement, players looking to pass first, real teamwork basketball. It was a breath of fresh air, and entirely different from the incessant iso plays run while Melo played his ineffective "point-forward" position. The offense flowed naturally. Teammates were in synch, on the same wavelength, synergy was achieved. As wonderful and inspiring the playmaking of Lin was, my favorite part of this whole experience was finally going to a game with Kimberly and watching the home team WIN for once. Ugh, the trials of being a Mets fan. My only question now, can Lin play shortstop?
