The former New York Knicks legend opened up about his rift with Linsanity.
Before this spring's magic, shorthanded run to Game 7 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals, the most electrifying moment of the new century New York Knicks may well have been Jeremy Lin's magical 27-game run from the 2011-12 season, a stretch forever known as "Linsanity."

Current playing in Taiwan, Lin played seven more seasons in the NBA but never captured the same success he had in Manhattan.
