Lin Out Six Weeks With Torn Meniscus

Linsanity is going to have to take a back seat.

On Saturday, it was reported by ESPN New York that MRI's revealed that Jeremy Lin will be out six weeks with a torn meniscus in his left knee. Lin has missed the last three games with what the Knickerbockers were calling a sore knee, but feared was something more serious before last night's loss in Atlanta.

This means Baron Davis, who has injury missing problems of his own, missing a large portion of this season already with back problems, will be forced to become the starting point guard and play at least 35 minutes a night. Davis is a two time NBA All Star, yet is 32 years old and has struggled with back problems since his days as a UCLA Bruin.
