Jeremy Lin hits game-winning 3 as Knicks top Raptors

[JonLP24]

TORONTO -- Linsane!

Jeremy Lin made a tiebreaking 3-pointer with less than a second to play to cap his finishing flurry of six straight points, and the New York Knicks rallied to beat the Toronto Raptors 90-87 Tuesday night, extending their winning streak to six games.

Lin had 27 points and a career-high 11 assists in his first game since being named Eastern Conference player of the week.

The season-high crowd of 20,092 roared as Lin drained a pull-up jumper from the top with half a second to play, giving the Knicks their first lead since the opening quarter.

After Jeremy hit the 3, World Peace ran through the locker room screaming 'Linsanity!'

2. He actually wasn't playing well until the end

He forced a bunch of shots and passes. But when it mattered, he came up huge. He's got the confidence of someone like Kobe, wanting the ball in his hands at the end. You can't coach that.
