New York Knicks will evaluate Jeremy Lin further later this week!
The New York Knicks sound hopeful that Jeremy Lin's return to the lineup may come sooner than later.
Lin did some on-court work in Miami for the fourth consecutive day,

Nike Free 7.0[/url] The Knicks made one change to their starting lineup, with Landry Fields listed among the first five after guard Iman Shumpert was lost for six to eight months with a torn ligament in his left knee after a non-contact injury in Saturday's series opener.
Tyson Chandler was also in the lineup for the Knicks after battling flu-like symptoms for several days, along with Amare Stoudemire, [url=http://www.jeremyscottoutlet.com/]

Lin said Sunday that he did not want to commit to a timetable for returning,

Michael Kors PursesMichael Kors Handbags Michael Kors Outlet Monday marked four weeks since his surgery, and the team originally expected his recovery to be a six-week process.
Lin averaged 14.2 points and 6.2 assists in 35 regular-season appearances with the Knicks.
Michael Kors Outlet Online Michael Kors Sale MK Bags He started 25 of those games, averaging 18.2 points and 7.7 assists in those contests - including a brilliant run in February when Lin,

The Knicks were 15-10 with Lin as a starter in the regular season,

"He shot (Monday), went through some halfcourt offensive sets that we had put in,"

Not only are they losing their first round series with the Miami Heat after getting drubbed by 33 points in Game 1 on Saturday, [url=http://www.parkafactoryoutlet.com/]

"The fact that they're still giving I.V. and things of that nature to him, he's just barely hanging in there," Woodson said, calling Chandler a game-time decision for Monday. "I don't know what he's going to feel like tomorrow. Hopefully, a miracle happens overnight and he's ready to play."

Davis said that his back stiffened up after a collision with Dwyane Wade and a couple of tough screens from the Heat. But he felt better on Sunday and plans to play in Game 2.
Still, the Knicks aren't likely to get 48 minutes out of Davis and back-up Mike Bibby. Shumpert filled in at point guard in those minutes that the real point guards weren't in the game. So on Monday, Woodson will need to find someone else to bring the ball up the floor. And that might have to be Carmelo Anthony.
This is all a bit reminiscent of last year, when the Knicks lost Chauncey Billups to a knee injury in Game 1 of their first round series with the Celtics. And then Amar'e Stoudemire injured his back in warmups before Game 2.
"It's tough, but I'm not one to make excuses," Woodson said. "We're going to have to play."
