There was no way the Hornets should have been in the game last night against the Spurs. Kemba Walker shot poorly. Al Jefferson shot poorly. Frank Kaminsky shot poorly. Jeremy Lamb shot poorly. You see where this is going?

But, there was one man on the Hornets who was feeling it. And that man was Jeremy Lin.

Not the Jeremy Lin with the extremely weird hair.

But rather this newly refined Jeremy Lin with the slick backed hair.

The thing is, even with his new look, the numbers haven’t been where Hornets fans had hoped. He was supposed to be a solid reserve consistently contributing each and every game. That hasn’t happened unfortunately. But, that doesn’t necessarily mean that he can’t get in form just in time for their playoff run.

Last night, Jeremy Lin showed some of the ‘Linsanity’ we had seen from him during his New York days. Lin finished with 29 points off the bench while shooting 11/18 from the field and 4/4 from deep.

Jeremy Lin, last night, was one of only 7 reserves ever to have a game of at least 29 points and 4 threes while going 100% from 3-point range.

The last person to have such a game was Jamal Crawford in 2005.

Let’s hope Jeremy Lin can continue his stellar play as the Hornets will need him if they are going to make any noise in the Eastern Conference Playoffs.
