Starting PG Jeremy Lin has looked good so far, scoring nine points with seven assists and two steals before halftime of Monday's game against the Jazz.
It's clear that the Knicks look like a better team with Lin at the point, and while he has some limitations the pros outweigh the cons. He should be added in all 12-team leagues for the chance he starts and puts up decent numbers going forward, and this could be great news for Amare Stouemire -- as Lin operates the pick-and-roll at least 10 times better than anybody else the Knicks have.

Mike D'Antoni said after Saturday's game that he is "leaning toward" starting Jeremy Lin at PG.
"Let me watch the Super Bowl and then we'll figure it out," said D'Antoni. The Knicks' guard play has been poor all season and they just won behind a huge effort from Lin, so there are plenty of reasons to believe he could become the starter. The return of Baron Davis looms as a threat to his production, but owners should stash Lin while we see how this plays out.

Jeremy Lin had 25 points, five rebounds, seven assists and two steals in an extremely impressive performance off the Knicks' bench on Saturday.
Mike D'Antoni has been searching for some energy and fight in recent weeks, and Lin provided that and more vs. the Nets. It must be noted that this was the first time all season Lin scored double-digit points, but he's worth a pickup in case D'Antoni turns him loose. With a 9-15 record and Baron Davis' conditioning a question mark, it's quite possible.

Knicks recalled G Jeremy Lin from the D-League.
It's a little strange that Lin has been recalled even though Baron Davis (back) is nearing a return to practice. The Knicks' point guard spot is really crowded with Iman Shumpert, Toney Douglas and Mike Bibby also in the mix.

Knicks assigned PG Jeremy Lin to the Erie BayHawks of the D-League.
It's another sign that Baron Davis (back) is ramping up his activity and Mike Bibby is feeling healthy. Lin appeared in five games for the Knicks so far this season as the fourth point guard.

The Knicks officially claimed Jeremy Lin off waivers on Tuesday afternoon.
Lin was released Sunday by the Rockets to make room for Samuel Dalembert. Lin will serve as the Knicks third-string point guard behind Toney Douglas and Mike Bibby and may only have a job with New York until Baron Davis gets healthy, leave him on your league's waiver wire.

ESPN's Marc Stein reports that Jeremy Lin has been claimed off waivers by the Knicks.
It makes some sense considering Iman Shumpert's knee injury, but Lin is going to struggle to find any kind of playing time when everyone is healthy. This might be a short-term stopgap solution for the Knicks while some members of the backcourt are banged up.

Jeremy Lin is drawing interest from the Knicks and Warriors.
Lin was just recently waived by the Rockets in order to make room on the roster for Samuel Dalembert. The Warriors waived Lin prior to his winding up in Houston, while the Knicks could use some depth in the backcourt with Mike Bibby nursing a sore back and Iman Shumpert out two to four weeks with a knee sprain.
