Which ten Jeremy Lin performances rank as his best throughout his NBA career to this point?

Jeremy Lin was signed by the Los Angeles Lakers this past offseason and has been a bit inconsistent thus far, but there are plenty of reasons to explain his inconsistent start. The Lakers are still very confident in his ability and believe that he will be their point guard for the foreseeable future unless they’re able to acquire a better option via trade or free agency.

There is no doubt that Lin is one of the most popular names in the NBA at this point in time, and rightfully so. He was a complete no name until breaking immediately into stardom with the New York Knicks just there years ago and creating what was known as “Linsanity.” After that season in New York, however, he chose to leave and join the Houston Rockets after they offered him a very lucrative contract.

Unfortunately, Lin was not the starter for very long in Houston and ended up being the sixth man. He still came through with big performances here and there, but he wasn’t given the same type of freedom that he was in New York.

Due to the length of time it has been since Lin played with the Knicks, the photos will be from either Lin’s tenures with the Houston Rockets or newer.

That being said, there are 10 games throughout Lin’s career in particular that are head and shoulders above the rest. Ten games that completely changed the league perception that Lin was a nobody. Which ten games are they?
