Given the recent success of Jeremy Lin, I guess the timing is...convenient?

Pretty sure it is more than convenient. Why not?

Reminds me of this.

It sells tickets apparently. I heard that the game is the only sellout since opening day.

If you'd read the story, Bruce, it says this is their 3rd.

Sorry. I heard a report on CBC radio that said the first.

$1:

Lin-sanity is already boosting ticket sales.

An Air Canada Centre ticket that will set you back $44 for the Knicks will cost less than half that the next day when the San Antonio Spurs are in town.

Lin was a hot ticket Saturday in Minnesota, as the Timberwolves sold standing-room only tickets to pack in an announced crowd of 20,232, the largest at the Target Center since 2004.

Not bad for having a good week.
