Calderon actually played good D tonight. Yes he got burned twice in the second half, and then the last shot in his face. Overall Calderon was the better player in that matchup. I don't hear you guys bitching about how Calderon lit up Lin. There is a reason Lin got taken off Calderon. Lin should be commended on how he played at the end tonight, he hit a difficult shot at the end.

And how long do we wait on Bayless? Do we give him the 6 year plan like Bargnani?@Chr1st1anL

bayless doesn't use the pick most times or takes a bad angle puts his head down and goes straight for the basket. bayless can never do what lin does.

Calderon is playing amazing lately, to bad he coughed up the ball a couple times late. He should have had a couple more screens to help him with the pressure.

What do the great players always tell you about hitting the big shot on the road, and what they love about the sound in the arena: the silence. They love the silence.
Here, the Air Canada Centre exploded. It was mayhem. Perhaps everyone knows this is something for the ages, something that’s become a happening, and it hardly mattered that Lin had done it to them. It was just that Lin had done it again, and, man, it was something to behold.
“You see what he’s done in arenas, and you see what happens when he’s introduced during away games,” Fields said. “The crowd’s going nuts. It’s almost like a home game out there for us.”
The NBA is such a league of jealousy and agendas and angles. Everyone is playing one – management, coaches, players. That’s the beauty of this story, the innocence of it. They’re watching Lin win these games night after night, and admiring his poise on and off the floor.

i was torn I really wanted them to play well. I thought the six game winning streak made for a compelling story. But at the end of the day MY team lost a heart breaker. I think the crowd picked up on the mixed feelings as wellFor still frame photograph of me reading the DeRozan thread please refer to my avatar

As soon as that play got reset at the end and Lin had the ball I just left the room. My wife was like, 'where are you going? it's not over'. But I am a Raps fan. I knew it was over. I knew it would be a three. I knew it would be with no time left on the clock. I knew it would be Lin. I knew the ACC would go nuts. That's just life as a Raps fan.
I was reading so many younger posters on various sites losing their minds last night. Over Lin. Over the crowd. Over the Knicks. Honestly, I felt nothing. It's just another night in Raptorland.
