The story of Anthony and Jeremy Lin: Did Anthony make Lin Lai go crazy and leave New York?

Everyone at

likes the story of a loser, and the story of Jeremy Lin who became a member of the New York Knicks overnight is one of the most exciting stories of the 21st century.


Lin is an unselected guard at Harvard University. He doesn't seem to have the conditions to play in the NBA, but one of his companions Landry Fields (Landry Fields) immediately saw his talent. Although Jeremy Lin did not achieve much success after signing with the Golden State Warriors, averaging only 2.6 points and 1.4 assists per game in the 2010-11 season, these figures do not explain what will happen in the next stage of Jeremy Lin's career in just one year.

For fans, the term " Linlai Mad" (Linsanity) should trigger a revival of determination and passion, no matter which club they belong to. Lin won the hearts of millions of people, even though some of his NBA teammates did not take his performance seriously. In December 2011, Lin signed an unsecured contract with the Knicks, . By February 2012, the whole world knew his name, including his teammate Anthony .



In the Knicks' 8-15 fierce battle, Lin suddenly appeared and contributed 25 points, 7 assists and 5 rebounds on the bench, eventually defeating the then New Jersey Nets. On February 6, he scored 28 points and 8 assists in the game against the Utah Jazz, officially opening the Lin Lai crazy era.

Lin scored 20 points in 9 of 10 games, after which he started scoring important minutes. He scored a career-high 38 points in the game against the Los Angeles Lakers on February 10. A few days later, he beat the Toronto Raptors with 27 points and 11 assists and hit the winning three-pointer.


For the Knicks, things are finally starting to move in the right direction. Under the leadership of Jeremy Lin (most of the time without Melon), the New York Knicks won seven games in a row and achieved a 10-3 record with Jeremy Lin's rotation in February. This season's winning percentage has returned to 50%.

When Melon returned from a two-week absence due to a groin injury, the Knicks fell into a trough. They even lost six games in a row and the score dropped to 18-24. Anthony was not excited about coach Mike D'Antoni (Mike D & 39; Antoni) doing so many pick-and-rolls under Jeremy Lin. D'Antoni finally resigned after a six-game losing streak. Assistant coach Mike Woodson took over, and he chose the style that Melon liked. Jeremy Lin suffered a torn meniscus in his only season in New York at the end of March, which means he missed the first round of the Knicks' 4-1 loss to the Miami Heat .

Although many New Yorkers think Lin Laifeng is the savior of this season, not everyone is like that. After the Knicks decided not to match the Houston Rockets' three-year, $25 million offer, more rumors began to spread about how Anthony was jealous of Lin Lai mad and drove Lin and D'Antoni out To New York. Although Stoudemire did not mention the name of Melon, he confirmed it after this year. It is difficult to estimate


. What would happen if Anthony were more willing to accept a system with Lin as a trusted partner. Melon is a future Hall of Fame member, but he has been known for his stubbornness throughout his career. Although in the 2012-13 season, he is finally willing to become a very interesting small-ball power forward for the Knicks, but if he is more willing to embrace Lin and D'Antoni before then, maybe the situation will be better. In the end, New York lost to the Indiana Pacers in the second round of 2013, and the team has never made the playoffs since.

As for Lin, he has no malice against Carmelo Anthony. Win total with the Toronto RaptorsAfter the championship, Lin told the fans to stop pestering melons. Lin cherishes his short time with the Knicks. Recently, he admitted that his biggest regret is not cherishing this time fully:


"My biggest regret is that I am too immature and too young to really learn how to ignore this. Take it for granted," Lin said in an interview with MSG Network in May. "I am going to rehabilitate next season from my injury, what I want to happen next, I can't stay in the moment to understand, and appreciate what New York, New York and New York have done for me, all the fans, and what that means. This It's so special." Jeremy Lin always has a special place in the hearts of Knicks fans. It's a pity that his days with the team ended so soon.
