Note to Jeremy: Run a fast break away from this crazy woman Kim. Run Jeremy! First, she dates Reggie Bush, then has a quicky marriage to Kris Humphries.

She wants the attention from a professional athlete and the fame too much? Hmmm.

Also compared to those guys it'd be like Lin was a hotdog thrown down a hallway.

i say he is overrated and over hyped, if he wasnt a taiwanese/american the media wouldnt have blow this shit to the roof. THe guy is good, but not all star good. Far away from it, 9/10 times the guy drives to the right, his first step is got some speed but dribbles without confident when going to his left.

We will see how long he lasts, funny some of you think when melo comes back he needs to adapt Lin's game. Lets not forget, melo is the star here not lin.
U throw eric snow out there with lebron the king crab, u think its lebrons duty to adapt the no name PG or the other way around


Too many band wagoners, thats the bottom line. Shit load of ppl on fb dont even watch basketball, or never play the game before all of a sudden an Asian fool gets blown out of proportion now everyone wants a piece of him


THe guy is still Taiwanese regardless he was born in the States or not, hell im sure lots of u guys are immigrants but your parents may came over here at an earlier stage, you still bleed foreigner blood period. The guy still looks like an asian.

I've been watching basketball since the early 90s starting with Jordan and the Bulls and never stopped watching this sport. This Lin dude is the real deal. No, he's not a Rajon Rondo, a Derek Rose calibre of point guard. Give him the time to play with Melo and all his team mates, and to improve other facets of his game. He's gonna surprise many critics.

He's captured the attention of former NBA players like Steve Smith and Dennis Scott on TNT. Former NBA players who know a thing or two about basketball and talent. Heck, Kenny Smith picked Jeremy to be on Team Shaq for the Rising Stars Challenge game during the All Star Weekend.

I'm pretty confident that Kenny Smith, a former all-star point guard and a two time NBA champion with Houston, is a good judge of talent. Seeing Blake Griffin and J. Lin playing on Team Shaq will be fun. It's gonna be Lob City at that Rising Stars game.

My prediction is that J. Lin is gonna be one of the premier point guards in the NBA.

That's funny; you sound exactly like someone who doesn't know shit about the game...I wouldn't give a shit if his left arm was amputated...Why does it matter if he can only go right? Teams have had 6 games to realize he has no left hand, which by the way he does, and he's still dropping 20+ on them...So you're telling me that we have a guy here that has no left hand but still finds ways to score while having minimal weapons?? Sounds like he must be pretty fucking good then...I guess he'll be dropping 40+ once he does get a left hand right?

And you want to talk about Melo being the star? Let's get something straight...Melo and Amare have been the leaders of this team and have greatly underachieved...They were struggling to even make the playoffs in a weak Eastern conference...Melo goes down, Amare gets some time off, Lin takes over and has lead them to 6 straight wins...Can you please explain to me what makes you think that Melo is running this team right now?

You make it sound like Melo has been injured the entire season which is not the case. Even when he was healthy and playing with Amare, a lot of times, the offense of the team are out of sync and can't produce any easy baskets.

I agree that 6 games are a small sample size but to see Lin help get the Knicks out of the shithole by playing team ball, getting everyone involved is a great thing for basketball.

Scoring isn't everything about NBA... you could drop 40-50pts and your team can still lose. That would make him an elite player in scoring only but probably not as an elite overall team player. I feel that these days in the NBA, there are less and less team players and too many individuality. It's about doing a little bit of everything that helps the team win.

No one is saying Lin is godlike, I think you are taking the Lin nicknames far too seriously lol

This guy is amazing but I'm sick and tired of the stupid ass racist slogans masked as witty slogans or stupid ass comments made by some basketball commentators. The guy is putting on a show despite his race and the NBA should really be happy that they have the prefect role model to showcase the league and it's players after the lockout.

I don't even know what to say to you...You think that a guy who is finally being given an opportunity to play is in the same situation as JR Smith dropping 40 points for a big night?...JR Smith has been given plenty of opportunities and has proven to be inconsistent....How can you compare that with Lin's situation: a guy who is being given an opportunity for the first time, and thus far, proving to be consistant.....? If only you knew how stupid you sound right now...

And Carmelo was injured?? That's your excuse? That's funny; I guess Melo has been injured every since he got traded to the Knicks then since the Knicks have been WORSE ever since they made that trade to get him.....

@Tequilabomb, the problem is people like you that get affected by the hype. Yeah, he's making all the headlines, but no one who is really into the nba thinks he's god-like. He doesn't even tout himself as any good!

Take the headlines and hype with a grain of salt, he's a good player, but he's not the greatest. Laugh along with the memes and pictures and stop hating on a guy who is just doing what he loves. Let the band-wagoners jump on, they'll jump off soon enough.

His hype is not about how good he is; his hype is about his story......He's been ignored his entire life for reasons I'm not going to get into....and he keeps proving people wrong...He wins state championships, in HS, yet doesn't get a single D1 offer....Think about it: a guy who has made the NBA as a PG did not get a single D1 offer? Do you realize how ridiculous that is....then he drops 30 points on UConn....Enters for draft, nobody even looks at him....plays great against Wall in summer league.....finally the Warriors pick him as what was probably just for marketing purposes....they waive him, Knicks pick him up and he is finally given an opportunity to play....and the rest is history...like I said, it's not about HOW good he is, it's the about the fact that HE IS GOOD but has been turned down his entire life for stupid reasons...It's a great story that encourages people to simply never give up on their dreams...

I think we have to distinguish whether we dislike the hype or JLin himself. Sure, everybody is blowing everything out of proportion, however, you must admit he is a legitimate player. He has the game IQ, and he also has a very refined set of skills. He might not be flashy like DRose or CP3, but what he is doing is working thus far.

As noted above, his story is awesome. It shows how much you can accomplish with hard work and persistence. He is also very humble. He could totally blow it up and make himself sound like a hero, but no, he insisted that it is through hard work that he earned an opportunity and he just did the best he could.
