I will believe in Jeremy Lin when he does this on a consistent basis. IF he plays like he did in the first half of last nights game more often, then he is just the average player getting hot. Give him 1/4 of the season to show me he is this player we are seeing and not just a hot streak, do this for an entire season and I would consider him an elite player, show me double doubles like last night.
Just because ESPN shows a 3 minute highlight video of him making everything doesn't mean he is the shit. He is good, but they are pushing him harder and harder in the press for more viewers. He had 8 turnovers, and shot under 50% last night. Not an elite performance if you ask me. He played well, and made a game winning shot, that's a good player in the NBA, not an MVP performance.
