ROFLMNBAO: This Linsane Week In NBA Pictures

I'd like to be a NBA hipster and claim that I'm already over this damned Jeremy Lin hype, but I'd be lying. Aside from the endless SportsCenter fellatio that only ESPN can provide the athlete du jour, I think the guy is a great story and he's an exciting player to watch. But above all else, he's a reminder that the right guys, while seemingly worthless to one team, can be the perfect fit with another team, if that franchise has capable eyes and ears making the decisions. Do you think Isiah Thomas thinks to sign Lin if he's still the New York Knicks president? Hell no. And there are plenty of other teams that could have used his shot in the arm - both on the court and in the bank - but the NBA is so lopsided when it comes to competent GMs and team presidents that it's amazing Lin even got another chance.

Other than that, it's business as usual this week. The San Antonio Spurs are the hottest team in the NBA with a 9-game winning streak, but we don't talk about them because they don't have Lin. The Chicago Bulls are currently the best team in the NBA despite Derrick Rose's absence and the Miami Heat are quietly plotting the addition of a big man. Will it be Chris Kaman? Nobody knows, but yes, it will be Kaman, because New Orleans is trying to get rid of everyone so the Hornets can eventually finally start the league's first ever all janitor team.
