Knicks vs. Heat is on...

<div>It's not that often that I would choose to watch an NBA game this early over a good college game like Duke at FSU.</div><div>

I find NBA games more entertaining than college since the overall product is better.

but in February and March I pretty much always will watch a good college game over a good NBA game. This Knicks-Heat game is intense. Chandler and D'Antoni both have T's already.<div id="isChromeWebToolbarDiv" style="display:none"></div>

I hate how the NBA has become so fragile with what a foul/technical is. You can just look at someone wrong and you can get a T.<div>
</div><div>You're right though...this game is really intense. I've actually avoided multiple Heat games this season, but man...their defense is legit.</div>

and compared to college is a totally different ball game. I'm watching this game (sort of) and it's the first NBA game I've even halfway watched in years. Just wanted to see Lin play, especially against someone like James.

They run up and down the court HARD and barely break a sweat. Lin's not sweating at all. I'll bet Sidney goes through a dozen towels wiping sweat after he plays a couple of minutes .....

Lin needs to step up his game

The Heat have him rattled.<div id="isChromeWebToolbarDiv" style="display:none"></div>

Staudemire, and Anthony play in. He was thrust onto the stage in a way I've never seen a professional athlete do before... and he's gonna struggle. He's young, but if he keeps playing with the energy he has the past few weeks, he will work his way up there with the bigs. I don't care whether people like LeBron, Wade, and Bryant, those guys play on a completely different level... and have earned their way there. Lin has the opportunity to work his way up there, too.... but he's far from there right now.<div>

He looked absolutely terrible, but that may be the best thing for him. If he works half as hard as the media has made him out to do so then he needs to take the bumps and bruises from this game and get better. I really think he may do just that. I hope so at least.

There have been a few times this year that i have caught myself flipping back and forth between Grizzlies games and our or other college games. The difference in the two is ridiculous
