Jeremy Lin returns to the Garden as a Houston Rocket Monday night, but so far it appears New Yorkers are less than overwhelmed with excitement and anticipation.
As of Sunday morning, the asking price for tickets, according to TiqIQ.com, was averaging $329.63, a mere one percent higher than the Knicks' average price this season.
The lowest price to get in Monday night was $81.
At the peak of Linsanity late in February, the site said, asking prices averaged $491.65.
