• 89 points scored by Jeremy Lin during his first three starts with the New York Knicks this week
• 80 points scored by former team record-holder Bill Cartwright in his first three starts, way back in 1979-1980 source

• » What can’t he do? With a solid showing against the Los Angeles Lakers on Friday, including a career-high 38 points scored, Jeremy Lin set a new Knicks team record (EDIT: And league record) for the most points scored by a player in their first three starts since the NBA-ABA merger. He’s also one game away from matching Lebron James’ — 20 point, 5 assist, 50 percent shooting — four-game performance streak, the longest streak by any player this season.
