Jeremy Lin's "clutch free throw with 4.9 seconds remaining punctuated another 20-point performance and secured a 100-98 victory against the Minnesota Timberwolves at Target Center"
On February 4, 2012, Lin came off the bench [http://www.nba.com/games/20120204/NJNNYK/gameinfo.html#nbaGIboxscore] but ended up playing nearly 36 minutes (of a 48 minute game) and leading the Knicks to victory, beginning what is now a seven game winning streak for the then 8-17 squad. The next day he made his first career start, and led his team in scoring and assists as they won again despite the loss of star player [[Carmelo Anthony]] to injury. Lin has continued to excel and his team has continued to win, while his team has at times been without both Anthony and [[Amare Stoudemire]], their other highly paid star player.
