He has been affectionately called Linsanity , Super Lintendo , Ninga , LinFinity, , Linderalla , The Golden Child
and many more which he's earned with his stellar play. My favorite is Cinderella Man
and he capped his magical run tonight with the winning 3 pointer at the buzzer. The Knicks are now a spotless 6-0 since he has been inserted into the lineup. I've watched his last 3 Knick games in a row before that I hadn't watched 3 Knick games in a row in almost twelve years. I'm on the band wagon.

I'm a believer.
Lin doesn't have to play softball to make my blog. He proves that it is "much more than just a game". He went to Harvard (rare in pro sports), is Asian (a rarity in the NBA) , was undrafted, cut, benched, cut again, benched, almost cut, then let his talent shine through.
Fucking inspiring
