Linsanity returns to put an end on Knicks unbeaten home record Video
Monday night will never be confused with the night Patrick Ewing returned to Madison Square Garden as member of the Seattle Sonics almost 12 years ago,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. The raw emotion and love Ewing felt from the fans that night is what makes playing in New York City extra special.
Jeremy Lin received that same kind of love on a daily basis from the Garden crowd in February of this year. He came out of nowhere to be the talk of the sports world and had one of the most amazing two months any athlete can ever experience. Nobody will forget the night Lin dropped 38 points on the Los Angeles Lakers to officially mark his arrival to the NBA and the rest of the world. Lin one again provided the Knicks fans' with another excellent Garden performance, but they are less likely to enjoy this one.
Lin tormented his former team with 22 points, eight assists,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], four rebounds and two steals as the Rockets defeated the Knicks 109-96,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], ending New Yorks' 10 game home winning streak to start the season.
"It was a lot of fun playing out there and I think our team, we took a step in the right direction,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," Lin said. "And for me,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], it was great to be back and it was a lot of fun to play on that court again."
It was the second time in three weeks that the Rockets made easy work of the Knicks. Houston defeated New York back on November 23rd in what was the club's most lopsided loss of the season. The Knicks gave up a season high of 131 points that evening and it seemed like an encore of that performance was not likely The circumstances would support that with the Knicks entering Monday night as the only undefeated team at home. The team was efficient from the floor shooting 14 for 22 from the field,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], led by JR Smith's 5 for 5 shooting which led to 12 points. Raymond Felton, the point guard who replaced Lin, also had a strong first quarter as he shot 5 for 7 with 10 points.
However,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], it went all downhill from there as Houston outscored the Knicks 54-29 over the middle two quarters. The second quarter was especially putrid as New York shot 4 of 24 for the quarter, including 1 of 10 from three point range, with the Rockets turning a two point deficit into a 14 point lead.
"They made shots, we didn't," said Woodson. "We gave up too many shots at the rim. That's a no-no in our system because when teams are scoring constantly in the paint it takes some of the air out of your defense."
Chris Copeland, who led the team with 29 points, led a surge in the third quarter to help cut the Rockets lead to just five midway through. But that was as close as the Knickerbockers would ever get.
"We cut the lead to six or seven and then we had two big turnovers,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. Then they made two big three pointers right after that,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. We never recovered."
The Garden crowd gave Lin a very positive ovation during the pregame introductions,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. Those cheers quickly turned into jeers once the game got underway. He was booed every time he touched the ball at one point. The crowd gave the loudest cheer of the night when Lin airballed a three point shot in the second quarter.
"I've moved on, they've moved on,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," he said. " There's no hard feelings either way. Right now,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], I'm in a different place in my life,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], a different chapter. We have good memories,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but at the same time we're all in a different place now."
The Knicks are in a lot better place now with Raymond Felton and Jason Kidd running the point these days. Even with the defeat,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], New York still own the best record in the Eastern Conference with a mark of 18-6.相关的主题文章:
