Lin The Missing Piece In New York?
Before the game was over, the Madison Square Garden fans were openly cheering
"M-V-P!" for Jeremy Lin.
Lin signed with the New York Knicks two days after Christmas and saw little
playing time in his first month. However, on Jan. 28, he played 20 minutes
and racked up six assists. This Saturday, he played 35 minutes and scored 25
points against the New Jersey Nets. By Monday, he was the starting point
guard, putting up career-highs with 28 points, eight assists and eight
turnovers to lead the Knicks over the Jazz, 99-88, without either Carmelo
Anthony (left in the first quarter with a groin strain) or Amare Stoudmire
(mourning the loss of his brother).
One thing that separates Lin from the other point guards on the Knicks'
roster is his passing ability, especially in the pick-and-roll. Against the
Utah Jazz, Lin repeatedly gave Tyson Chandler and Jared Jeffries the ball in
good position to score. The two forwards combined for 23 points, mostly
because of Lin's ability to find the dive man.
The Knicks point guard also showed ability to get his own shot off at the
hoop as well, as eight of his 10 field goals were layups.
However, it wasn't all good. Most notably the turnovers, of which Lin had
only one heading into halftime. The Jazz forced Lin to his left and pressured
him farther away from the hoop. Much later in the game, they broughtAl
Jefferson up to double team Lin and it forced the ball out of his hands. In
addition, Lin's one-on-one defense might be suspect as well.
But given the Knicks' current rotating door policy at point guard, in a
month's time the flavor of the day might be someone else (*cough* Baron Davis
*cough*). On the other hand, one thing that I've noticed about D'Antoni's New
York tenure is that he will be more patient with a point guard that can pass,
even if the player has a few other major deficiencies (see: Duhon, Chris).
As long as he cuts down on the turnovers.
今天Lin在終場的表現讓紐約的球迷為他呼喊MVP!
Lin今天有28分，8助攻，但是有八次失誤。
最引人注目的是他的傳球能力，尤其是Pick&Roll。
受惠於Lin的錢德勒跟傑佛瑞合計奪得23分。
上半場只有一次失誤的書豪，下半場受到壓迫以及包夾，出現多達八次失誤。
書豪10次的Field Gold，有八次是切入籃下的上籃得分
現在Lin的外圍投射，以及他的防守能然受到質疑。
尤其是拜倫戴維斯即將歸隊，書豪的先發位置極有可能不保。
但是目前的情況來看，D'Antoni比較傾向於會傳球的控衛。
只要書豪減低他的失誤，戴維斯恐怕只能跟畢畢守開特立了!
