Those who have followed Jeremy Lin’s career have known of his ability to play his best when he’s playing the best. Those who were there when he single-handedly led his team to victory over a California high school powerhouse to win a state championship saw it. Those who were there when his Harvard team played an occasional ACC or Big East foe saw it. But until ten days ago, no one had any reason to believe we would see this at the NBA level from a player who was probably within days, maybe hours, of getting kicked out of the league when Mike D’Antoni, who may have been within days, maybe hours of getting canned, unwittingly sparked a raging wildfire that has engulfed the concrete jungle of New York City and has spread across the country and the world.
