wow major props, this is definitely a proper kid with solid game, will be watching him and also Anthony Morrow on the GS team this upcoming season OAKLAND, Calif. - Jeremy Lin took a seat in a small room in front of an array of television crews, photographers and print media on Wednesday afternoon. He'd never seen anything like that at Harvard.
"This is unbelievable," Lin said after the Golden State Warriors signed the undrafted free agent guard. "I've never been part of something like this."
He became the first Asian-American player signed by the Warriors since 1947. In an area with a large Asian population, Lin becomes an instant celebrity.
Story continues below ↓advertisement | your ad here
"I consider myself a basketball player more than an Asian-American," said the Bay Area native. "I'm ready to play at this level and I appreciate the support of the Asian community. This is a dream come true. I always wanted to be in the NBA and now I get to do it with the Warriors, the team I grew up watching."
The 21-year-old Lin averaged 16.4 points, 4.5 assists and 4.4 rebounds per game as a senior at Harvard. The season was highlighted by a 30-point, nine-rebound performance against Connecticut.
Lin is from nearby Palo Alto. He led Palo Alto High School to a state championship in 2006.
"This has not sunk in yet," he said. "I've had a lot to think about the last 12 hours and I still can't get my head around it. Growing up I had my Latrell Sprewell poster and Joe Smith jersey."
Lin became a prospect during his final year with the Crimson and furthered his worth playing with the Dallas Mavericks' summer league team in Las Vegas.
Mavericks president of basketball operations Donn Nelson called Lin before the NBA draft and offered him the opportunity to play in the league. He was originally scheduled to play in the San Francisco Pro-Am League.
"Donn Nelson took care of me," Lin said. "He invited me to July 4th festivities, brought me to Dallas for a 10-day training camp and went out of his way."
Lin became the first Ivy League player to record 1,450 points, 450 rebounds, 400 assists and 200 steals. He finished his college career as Harvard's all-time leader in games played (115) and fifth in points with 1,483 points.
"I understand there are not many Asians in the NBA and there are not many Ivy Leaguers in the NBA," Lin said. "Maybe I can help break the stereotype."

BUMP!!
We have the asian Alex Burrows of the NBA. This kid was undrafted and has a tremendous work ethic and insanely high basketball IQ
7 days ago he was the 4th string point guard for the knicks. Had his career game 3 games ago and isn't looking back.
He put up 38 points today against Kobe Bryant and the Lakers to lead his team to a 4 game winning streak. The most points scored by a Knick this season
Kobe wont be sleeping tonight he's got Linsomnia!
Eat your words Ronin, New York City is going ape shit right now.

He's been Lincredible lol
The Knicks have a good thing going for them right now. I hope it doesn't get disrupted when Melo gets back.

This guy will be lucky to get any playing time since he isn't even drafted. | too soon, junior.

Kobe Bryant on Jeremy Lin: "I know who he is, but I don't really know what's going on too much with him. I don't even know what he's done. Like, I have no idea what you guys are talking about. I'll take a look at it tonight though. .... Jesus Christ. Let's not get ahead of ourselves."
Lin - 38points, 7 assists
Kobe - 34 points
Knicks win.
I'll bet you know him now |

I'm just a little worried about chemistry once Melo is back cuz he's a ballhog...
Oh and based on his recent interviews and talk shows; I'll be the first to say I won't be surprised if he starts TEBOWING! |

Lol lin is already been compare to tebow of the nba LOL
Melo will bring the team down imo, look at denver, fucker takes a lot of shot and he's a perimeter shot player, lin will get lower stats but still excel expectations, wow he blew up for 28 points in the 2nd half today..... Props my yellow brother Posted via RS Mobile |
