The Jeremy Lin phenomena. Lin, a 24 yr Chinese/Taiwanese American who has become a sensation after being put as a starter of New York Knicks by leading the team to a long-time-no-see winning streak. Considering his performance as a rookie starter, with Carmelo and Amare on the lineup, it's just insane.
Lin beat the buzzer an Knicks got the win! Linsanity continues!

The craze surrounding Asian NBA guard Jeremy Lin of the New York Knicks. Starting from a humble beginning with not a chance given in sight, opportunity finally arose with injuries to multiple Knicks players and Lin took off SOARING.

It's safe to say that after his first few games starting that he has already cemented himself as one of the greatest of all time. He is truly a special player that could probably calculate you out of existence if he truly wanted to. Don't mess with Lin unless you want to DIE!
