This chap scored a career high of 38 points against my team Lakers and Kobe. WTF!!
And thanks to him, everyone on facebook is talking about NBA. Even peeps who doesn't watch NBA is talking about NBA, peeps who stop watching NBA after Michael Jordan left the game or since Starhub stop showing good matches. -.- NBA channel is bullshit, they will actually telecast some NBA documentary over live match of Lakers against Nuggets. If you really want to watch, get the NBA League Pass!
I could hardly remember when was the last time NBA feed came from anyone else other than myself on the facebook timeline.
I started watching him during Golden State Warriors time where he didn't have much playing time as the guard position was mostly occupied by Ellis and Curry. So the video that left me an impression of him last season was actually the one with Nigahiga.
Like what the video said, I got my eyes on him cause he is the first American Chinese to be in NBA.
So how good is this guy? He play 6 games as a started for Knicks so far and they won 6 games in a row. 6 games above 20 pts average and career high of 38 against Kobe? Take a crack at it - Quote from NBA.com
"Lin led the Knicks to a 4-0 week, averaging 27.3 points, 8.3 assists and 2.0 steals. His 109 points over his first four career starts are the most by any player since 1976-77, and he became the first player in NBA history to tally at least 20 points and seven assists in each of his first four starts. Lin scored a career-high 38 points on Feb. 10, in a 92-85 win over the Lakers."
This guy already set some records man!
No doubt Jeremy and social media did help NBA make a small "comeback" in Singapore but it still pisses some of us regular NBA followers in some way. Comparing him with some of the all star players and even MJ? We've seen so many bright stars who didn't last long. No, I am not taking his credit away, I do believe that he is good(or at least so far so good) but it's just a little early to compare him with the hall of famers. It's just like how every other soccer player is the next "Maradona" but seriously how many Messi can we find?(Using a soccer player reference for the sake of soccer fans.)
Anyway, I thought since Jeremy Lin is so
