I have to admit, I enjoy it. Much better than the Tebow junk. (which is a bad comparison anyway).

I have followed NBA basketball more in the past week than I have since the Bulls' run in the 90s.

Yeah, I was a Jordan fan; the "Come Fly with Me" video that came with SI hooked me.

Yes, it's fantastic.  Plus it puts Carmelo in the worst position he could ever imagine and it will be hilarious to see NY'ers pile on him when he returns.  I have nothing against Carmelo and he's great and junk but the specticle of it will be fantastic.

Pretty good read on Lin and his family's background that was originally written when he was a SR at Harvard

http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/columns/story?columnist=oneil_dana&id=4730385

Interview with Lin's HS coach from Palo Alto HS that was conducted right after Lin signed with Golden St a year and a half ago

I remember reading this one at the time (I think it was discussed here?). Hilarious that his dad taught him the game based on old NBA highlights.

I think he quickly gave up on that dream and decided to go in the direction of professional pick-up artist.

I like all the catchy names they already gave him "Lincredible" Linderella story" "Super lintendo" The last one might be racist, but is still cool.

He does have a fantastic name for nicknames. It's only a matter of time before people start naming their dogs Lin Tin Tin.

Bill is the least racist person who ever bowed.
