So how about that Heat-Knicks game? Anyone watch????

Wow, so I have to say, I was right about Lin being shut down (:cough: where you at blu...what happened to your team?? LOL)

Defensive pressure Chalmers gave Lin all night made it so Lin couldn't even shoot the ball, let alone drive to the hoop. They had Norris Cole on him late in the 3rd, to ease it down a bit, but Lin still couldn't score. 3 points for Lin, and 6 turnovers, and this is a guy who was averaging 17+ a game in his "Linsanity" phase.

Lin was probably not ready for the kind of pressure the Heat were putting on him tonight, and this is where Melo and Stoudemire should of stepped up and taken that pressure off him. To his fairness though, its only one game, so I guess we can just call this his "bad game".

Joel Anthony had some good blocks on the Knicks and Lin as well, overall the team was just playing good hard D and great offense. But I think this game showcased why the Heat are the team to beat. They have both ends of the floor on lock. Come playoff time, lets see if this will result in victory, I have a strong belief that if the Heat continue to play the way they are now, they will be unstoppable.
