Linsanity Baby

I swore off posting about the Knicks about 2 or 3 weeks ago because it was just making me too upset.  Melo was taking close to 30 shots a game.  STAT had about as much lift in his knees as you can assume that I have based on my pen-name.  Toney Douglas was (is) T/Oney Douglas.  Landry Fields looked like Andy Rautins.  Tyson Chandler looked like he should be paying us his 50 million dollar contract to just watch the games.  And Mike D'Antoni still looked like the Pringles Guy.  But then, out of the sadness, out of the tears, out of the ashes of a season that looked like a catastrophe emerged a great oriental hope.  

I'm allowed to be racist apparently, because I have never seen so much blatant racism put out by the media about a player with an ethnically diverse background.  Its unbelievable.  Everyone is so god damn sensitive about political correctness and shit these days, and each demographic freaks out if even the slightest shot is taken at them, except, apparently, for Asian-Americans.  I saw a picture of an asian guy online holding up a poster with a picture of Lin and a quote that read "Who said we can't drive?"  That is fucking hilarious.  You know how fucking witty that shit is?  That guy could make a killing writing blogs.  In fact, I'd like to offer an open invitation to that man to come and write for us.  Fuck, I'd even offer him a salary even though we make 0$ in profit off of this blog.  It's awesome how asians are just taking these blatantly racist stereotypes on the chin, and just being able to laugh them off.  Although I guess it can't be that hard to do when your previous favorite players were Yao Ming and Wang Zhizhi.

Anyway, Master Lin is putting up huge numbers these past 3 games, and without jinxing him too hard, it looks like the Knicks have found their guy at PG for the rest of the season, or at least until Boom Dizzle gets healthy.  He has been straight taking over games.  

I think the funniest matchup he's had thus far has been last night with John Wall.  John Wall did 1 year of College at Kentucky, and when you go to play for Coach Cal can you really call it college?  As I've said before, you're getting paid.  I just know it, that man is just too slimy.  Anyway, one time John Wall was acting a little immature and not being a good leader for his team.  Want to know what his punishment was, per Coach Cal?  He was going to have to start GOING TO CLASSES and DOING HIS OWN HOMEWORK.  No fucking way.  Thats an outrage.  Can you imagine the contrast between JLin and JWall.  John Wall probably hasn't learned how to spell Kentucky yet, while Jeremy Lin is a Harvard Grad who would probably be working a cubicle job at Merrill Lynch right now if it weren't for this whole "Basketball" thing.  That's why when Lin took Wall to the Cup and threw it down, it was that much funnier.  Matter of fact, Rondo, Rose, and John Wall might be better at basketball, but they don't hold a candle to Lin's knowledge of the protestant reformation, or finding the derivative of a power function.  So suck it.

So hears to Meesah, Mastah, (Shao)Lin.  The man is a nightmare out there.

P.S. Austin Rivers is a douche, I don't care what you say.
