Linsanity!
Jeremy Lin [林書豪], born in 1988 to parents from Taiwan.
–A graduate of Palo Alto High School, where he captained his team to a 32-1 record, winning the California Interscholastic Federation (CIF) Division II state title, yet he received no athletic scholarships, and was guaranteed a spot only on the squads of Harvard and Brown.
–AB, Economics, Harvard College (Go Crimson!), 2010, All-Ivy First Team in his junior and senior years, first Ivy Player ever to amass 1,450 points (1,483), 450 rebounds (487), 400 assists (406) and 200 steals (225), and undrafted by the National Basketball Association.
–2010-2011: Golden State Warriors and Reno Bighorns (D-League)
–2011-2012: Erie Bay Hawks and the New York Knicks
AND NOW:
with Lin in the game,
vs. New Jersey Nets, Knicks win 99-92, Lin scores 25 pts.
vs. Utah Jazz, Knicks win 99-88, Lin scores 28 pts.
vs. Washington Wizzards, Knicks win 107-93, Lin scores 23 pts.

New York Times: "With 38 Points, the Legend Grows"
How long he can keep this up or whether he'll be allowed to continue starting once the Knicks' stars return, who knows, but what a great story, and after the lockout, it's just what the NBA needs.
