Carmelo Anthony: Yes, I'm finally recovered from my groin injury. I better tell Mike D'Antoni that I'm ready to start playing right away! Oh, its you. Jeremy Lin.
Jeremy Lin: I couldn't help but overhear. Did you say that you're recovered from your injury now?
CA: Yeah my groin is finally back to normal. I can't wait to start jacking up 25 jumpshots per game like before!
JL: Whoa Melo, let's not get carried away here. You don't need to force yourself to come back any earlier than you have to. Why don't you take it easy for a few more days?
CA: A few more days?!
JL: Or a few more weeks. You can take the rest of the year off if you wanted. It is a condensed season after all and we wouldn't want you to risk another injury.
CA: But I'm ready to play. NOW!
JL: Okay, how about this? You can come off the bench for a while. There's no need to overexert yourself as soon as you come back from a serious injury.
CA: You've got to be kidding me. Me? Come off the bench?!
JL: Just for a while. Until we know for sure that you're 100% healthy.
CA: I don't know any franchise player that come off the bench. I don't know any olympian that come off the bench. I don't know any five-time allstar that come off the bench. I dont know any future MVP that come off the bench. So why Carmelo Anthony?
JL: Listen, Carmelo. I tried to be nice but you're leaving me no choice. The real reason why I came here to tell you that the team is just simply better without you. We've been winning alot and the team chemistry has gotten better. So I don't think its in the team's best interest for you to come back.
CA: But I'm the best player on the team. If I don't play who's going to take the game winning shots and lead our team to victory?
JL: I will.
CA: hahahahaha! You? Replace me? For someone who went to Harvard, you're not very smart.
JL: You've seen me play. I have lead our team to 7 straight victories since I started playing.
CA: Listen, Jeremy. I admit, you had a few good games, but they were mostly against wack teams. And the only reason why you were playing in the first place was because everyone was hurt and there was nobody else!
JL: Haven't you been paying attention to the media? The fans love me. I'm the Tim Tebow of the NBA, all I do is Lin!
CA: Oh god. Please stop it with that stupid-ass song. If you're the Tim Tebow of NBA then I am Tom Brady. The only thing you do better than me is turning the ball over.
JL: I'm a point guard. When you handle the ball as much as I do, turnovers are bound to happen. But you're forgetting I'm also averaging more than 25 points per game.
CA: That's because you are jacking up more than 20 shots per game. When people call you the yellow mamba, they're making fun of you. They're not giving you permission to play like Kobe Bryant!
JL: Not true. I pass the ball all the time.
CA: Jeremy, passing the ball to the other team does not count as an assist.
JL: You're overexaggerating.
CA: I'm not exaggerating at all. I've seen your game versus New Orleans. And that disaster was madness!
JL: One bad game doesn't matter in the long run. I'm already the most popular basketball player in the world. Linsanity is spreading faster than the swine flu!
CA: You're overrated! You were just in the right place at the right time! You would still be stuck in the D-league if Baron Davis wasn't injured. And once your hype dies down, the D-League is where you'll be going back to in a couple of years.
JL: In a couple of years I will be an MVP candidate.
CA: Hahahahaha! You? An MVP?
JL: At the rate I'm playing, why wouldn't I be MVP?
CA: Because you're garbage.
JL: You're just jealous that your hometown fans like an asian better than they like you.
CA: Ha. The only reason why you're popular is because the asian fans don't have anyone else in the league to cheer for. There is no one else, you're the default.
JL: That's not true. Yi Jianlian is still in the league.
CA: WHO???
JL: He's chinese. Tall. Taller than me.
CA: Are you talking about Yao Ming? I thought he retired.
JL: Sigh.... Just.... forget it. You obviously don't know who I'm talking about.
CA: All you asians look the same to me.
JL: Okay, let's.... let's just stop this. We're done here , all right? I feel like I'm lowering my IQ just by talking with you.
CA: Wait, are you calling me stupid?
JL: You ARE stupid if you think the knicks will be better with you back in the line up. Nobody on the team wants you to come back.
CA: That's not true. Amare wants me to come back.
JL: Hahahahaha. You've got to be kidding me. Amare hates you! He was having an MVP season until you came along last year.
CA: He's still my friend. We talk on the phone all the time.
JL: He's sick of your whining. That's why he faked his brother's death to get away from you. And Chauncy Billups asked to be waived because he couldn't stand playing with you.

Frankie Edgar (14-1-1) vs. Benson Henderson (15-2)
The undisputed UFC lightweight champion Edgar is finally faced with a new challenge when he takes on the former WEC king Henderson.
Edgar, 30, has spent the better part of two years training for familiar opponents in Gray Maynard and B.J. Penn. After decisive victories, the Renzo Gracie-trained New Jersey native is now moving on to new challenges in the increasingly deep 155-pound division.
Heading into his title shot against then-champion Penn at UFC 112 in April 2010, Edgar was a massive underdog. The speedy 5-foot-6 former NCAA Division I wrestler took the Hawaiian legend to the limit, emptying his gas tank as the fight entered championship rounds. The end result was somewhat controversial as Edgar outpointed Penn via razor-thin decision to claim the title, but the subsequent rematch was a largely one-sided affair.
Despite prevailing in their first go-around, Edgar once again entered the fight as an underdog. Amid widespread criticism about his undersized frame for the lightweight division, Edgar soundly defeated Penn in their August 2010 rematch, earning a unanimous shutout on all scorecards.
Following successive triumphs over a man still widely regarded as the best lightweight in history, Edgar's sights were set on redemption against his lone conqueror Maynard, who earned a unanimous decision in their April 2008 encounter. Unsurprisingly, Edgar entered the fight with underdog status yet again.
Their second fight took place at UFC 125 in January 2011 with Maynard nearly finishing Edgar in the first round, one of the most one-sided rounds in mixed martial arts history. But the champion battled through adversity, winning the majority of the remaining rounds to eke out a draw.
The inconclusive result led to a trilogy clash at UFC 136 this past October. Amazingly, the fight was mirroring their second meeting as Maynard had Edgar on the verge of being finished in the first round. Once again, the resilient champion fought back before eventually putting away Maynard with a resounding fourth-round knockout.
After defying the odds time and time again, linemakers are hesitant to assign Edgar the underdog status as he prepares to defend his title for the fourth time.
Prior to dethroning Penn for the title, Edgar had already earned wins over some of the lightweight division's toughest foes, including Sean Sherk, Spencer Fisher, Mark Bocek and Jim Miller.
Edgar continues to hone his skills, sharpening his muay thai under Kru Phil Nurse, his wrestling under Steve Rivera, his boxing under Mark Henry and his submission game under Gracie and Ricardo Almeida. The standout wrestler is now a brown belt in Brazilian jiu-jitsu with impeccable timing, deceptive strength and frustrating footwork.
Henderson, 28, entered the UFC in 2011 after being dethroned in his final WEC title fight, losing a unanimous decision to Anthony Pettis after succumbing to the "Showtime" flying kick off the cage, which continues to be replayed on highlight reels.
The Colorado native has taken the UFC by storm since his debut, rattling off a string of impressive decisions over top title contenders Bocek, Miller and Clay Guida.
The former NAIA All-American wrestler, a product of the MMA Lab in Arizona, possesses a Brazilian jiu-jitsu brown belt under John Crouch, a Royce Gracie-trained black belt.
The athletically gifted southpaw uses his blend of wrestling and submissions to control fights, while mixing in a dynamic striking attack. A taekwondo black belt, Henderson utilizes unorthodox offense to throw opponents off their game.
During his WEC stint, Henderson defeated Donald Cerrone, Jamie Varner, Shane Roller and Anthony Njokuani, establishing himself as a legitimate world-ranked lightweight.
Both Miller and Guida were being groomed for probable title shots, but Henderson's dominant performances have changed the landscape of the division. The well-rounded challenger performs exceptionally well against other wrestlers and his ability to dictate where a fight plays out could be a valuable asset against the nimble titleholder Edgar.
Edgar and Henderson are evenly matched and they should deliver a frenzied five-round fray in front of the respectful Japanese audience.
Henderson's primary weapon could be his takedown. A significant size and strength advantage will allow him to control the champion in close quarters. Conversely, Edgar will need to establish his distance and use his movement to baffle the challenger, dashing in and out of range while throwing tactical combinations.
The fighter who gets his hand raised at the end of 25 minutes likely will be the one who better executes his game plan. Edgar has demonstrated the heart and skill of a champion in his past appearances, and he will need this momentum to carry on into Japan's Saitama Super Arena if he hopes to come out on top.

lyrics:
From undrafted to talk of the league
From afterthought to all over TV,
I tell you hard work is the key, but uh
This is what can happen when you dream
I'm Jeremy Lin
6 foot 3, with a 4.2
Grade point average, not vertical
Overlooked by every single team,
But never once did he let it hamper his dream,
First in the gym, last one done
Proving Hard work pays off in the long run
killed em in the previous summer
Dropped a career high when the coach finally called his number
Cut off the roster from Golden State
Knew his time was coming, so he chose to wait
Never know when you gonna get up in the game
But he made his moment count in the biggest of ways,
New York City the worlds Greatest stage,
now 20,000 rabid fans scream his name
Wasnt recruited for his ball skills,
Now you gotta wonder how they all feel,
Didnt quit, he only worked harder
went from Harvard graduate to NBA starter
the haters gonna hate and call him lucky
First ivy leaguer in the league since Chris Dudley
Must be some kinda desire
To make everybody who doubted you out to be a liar...
And even if it only lasts a moment,
Jeremy Lin took it and owned it,
You gotta respect it
From undrafted to talk of the league
From afterthought to all over TV,
I tell you hard work is the key, but uh
This is what can happen when you dream
I'm Jeremy Lin
