Since departing the New York Knicks as a restricted free agent in 2012, let’s just say the relationship between the people who run the Knicks and Jeremy Lin hasn’t exactly been warm and fuzzy. Visitors to the Garden over the past several seasons could watch highlights of many historical moments on the jumbotron during timeouts, or scan the hallways for memorabilia of game-worn jerseys or photos of spectacular plays, like Larry Johnson‘s 4-point shot in 1999. But anything related to Linsanity has been conspicuously missing.
Which is why Jeremy Lin was shocked when the team reached out to him with the idea of featuring his greatest moments on MSG Networks over the past week.
