The Brooklyn Nets will be without point guard Jeremy Lin for at least the next two weeks because of a strained left hamstring.Lin suffered the injury during Wednesday nights 109-101 victory over Detroit after playing 16 minutes. He said he took a long step in transition and planted on his left foot when he felt a tweak in his hamstring.The Nets said Lin would be re-evaluated in two weeks.At first, I was really upset, Lin said Friday before sitting out the Nets game against his former Charlotte Hornets teammates. I came back to my locker, and I wore pink shoes that day for Ava (a friend who is fighting leukemia). I immediately saw the shoes and started thinking about her, and I immediately ended my pity party. It could be a lot worse.

From there, what theyve been saying is that its hard to tell with hamstring stuff. Its not always easy to know what is a good timeline. They really havent said anything other than to keep rehabbing, and in two weeks, well see how you feel and go from there and make a plan.Lin has been a bright spot for the Nets (2-3) and is averaging 15 points and 6.2 assists this season after signing a three-year, $36 million deal as a free agent this past summer.In addition to Fridays game against Charlotte, Lin will miss out on a chance to face another of his former teams, the Knicks, at Madison Square Garden next Wednesday.The Nets were already thin at point guard before Lins injury, as veterans Randy Foye (hamstring) and Greivis Vasquez (ankle) are also hurt. Foye, though is expected to return against Charlotte. Vasquez remains out.Discount Sports Jerseys . Rinne played two periods in his first game since left hip surgery in early May.
