I actually watched this game live on T.V. at a Pizza restaurant. I was like, "Who is this Lin Kid!" I've been a big fan of him ever since.

LOL at the picture of jlin and walker at the start. Walker looks 30, jlin looks 10.

After this game, Jim Calhoun said about Jeremy Lin: "He's a terrific basketball player. What I really like about him is he's athletic, more than you think so. He controls his temperament to a really nice tempo. He knows how to play. He's one of the better kids, including BIG EAST guards, who have come in here in quite some time...I really love his composure."

Now they play together.

they are best teammates to each other now

One word why Lin was undraft? RACISM.

Facts

omg i was watching the linsanity documentary and saw this part and just blurted out laughing. how unreal is this? two guys who battled it out in college are now teammates.

Jeremy was a great guy in highschool. He was both an athlete and excellent student. He had friends among many different crowds.

The kid can raise his game against top competition. To see him light up UConn and the Lakers last night proves a lot to me.

lol at 2:31 or something they said he's of Vietnamese Descent.

Thanks for putting this together.

And people said Lin sucks. Lin has been good since day one. He just need to have the confidence that his coach at Harvard gave him in the NBA. Clifford seems like he will go all in with Lin, just like Harvard did. Lin is gonna be back doing what he does best when he was at Harvard if Clifford allows him to, guarandamnteed!

Correction. Chinese Decent.

I really enjoyed this slideshow.

I remember this game, and I remember Lin and I remember myself saying he was good. I'm not going to say I saw what was coming from him in the NBA because I didn't, but I remember him being very underrated and not talked about enough.

@SirBigDICKNigga Agree. He was 1st team all California and led his team to a state championship, yet he went unnoticed.

Lin and Kemba, Love and Killers!

he's not only a nice player but he is also a Harvard student. how amazing!!

Anyone who plays basketball knows that a slow start can happen, especially if you come off the bench cold while everyone else was already playing but the end result speaks for itself. 30 points coming off the bench now that is amazing. I wonder what would happen if he was a starter? Maybe they win the game against UConn? Jeremy Lin can truly play.

When the pressure is on lin is an all star baller!

This was the game that should've gotten Lin selected at least somewhere in the mid-to-late 1st round of the 2010 draft. Say what you want about him, but you can't deny the fact that he shines brightest when the chips are down and his back's against the wall. Plus, HE'S A HIGH IQ BALLPLAYER! How the hell you're gonna totally pass someone like that up? Shows stupidity, tbh. YEAH I'M TALKING TO YOU, JAMES DOLAN AND DARYL MOREY!!! >:-p

+PeekaPeep Yep, that's why he was signed after the draft because some of the teams finally saw him play for the first time during Summer League of that year. If Lin had been the second pick of the draft, I'm sure most teams would commit to him like they did with other players. Lin is one of the players that won't get any slack at all. He's either have to be good or nobody wants him, unlike guys who can developed with the teams that signed them. For example, John Wall wasn't playing like the Wall of today back in 2010, but the Wizards let him play and developed. Lin has never got that chance. Hopefully that's what he'll get in Charlotte. BTW if you go back and look at the 2010 draft class, Lin could easily been a top 10 pick. I guess nobody wants to watch any Harvard games back in those days. Lin brought prestigious back to Harvard basketball. Before Lin, Harvard was crap. Now Harvard is constant in the NCAA tournament.

Respect this kid's game.

Just come back and watch this video again,cause Lin go to Hornets and play with Kamba Walker,lol .#Taiwanesepride

that running 3 pointer needs to be in some kind of hall of frame. amazing.

how the fuck is Lin undrafted and walker is 9th pick???

+Andrew Michael Because LIN IS OF ASIAN DESCENT??? Only reason I can come up with...

his father stressed the fundamentals from an early age. Just from this 10 minute clip his basketball IQ is evident and he very savvy on the offensive end. I'd like to see more defensive footage, but it seems he plays the passing lanes well and he's capable of blocking shots.

he is very fluid and moves well with the ball. Reminds me of Jordan Farmer.

Worse of all i hate all the people who keep making excuses for ignoring him as if he just got good recently, apparently he's always been this good

Wish him a good year in Warriors, I might go see him, definitely buy his jersey, show some support!

hahaha.. the coach of uconn wanting the travel for lin but it is an actual legit move by lin.

LEGEND...

He is the truth

The picture of Jeremy Lin on Star Watch looked like it was taken when he was 15.

yaYYYYYY, finally an asian NCAA BALLER!!!!!

The best thing to happen to the Knicks since Ewing, Alan Houston John Starks days. He was masterful in the pick and roll and made offensive stars of players like Chandler, Novak, Landry Fields he had the whole Knicks team DOMINATING the league almost. Even had Knicks and Madison Square Garden Stocks soaring in profits. Go ask Carmelo how he was able to convince the owner of the team to put him on the market for best offers when the Knicks could of had him for $1-2M a year and Lin had to accept. Truth will come out books will be written and movies will be made and Carmelo Anthony will not be very happy of his portrayal it happened in New York the entertainment capital of the world, and he will have to explain to his children why he did that.

Wow he Is great!

the best asian basketball player. Also going to the nba!!!

Now Jeremy Lin is going to back up Walker in Charlotte.

o9mg are you sure he's going to be a back up? Looks like Hornets lead by Kemba is not working out, they are in a huge changing mode, 6 new faces, looks like a facelift to a run and gun with shooters and slash/dashers.

@guynguyen1665

9 жыл бұрын

***** true but i am not saying they will bench Kemba, just saying he will play a combo guard, SG and shared PG duty with Kemba, their line up looks like and run and gun and shooters style, Kemba, Jlin, Batum, MKG, Frank, Zeller and Hawes, Lamb. I think his decision is a bit dictated by the fact the Mo Williams were there last year and putting up crazy numbers 19/7 game. Mo and Jlin are very good friends, they have some similarity in their games, but Jlin is younger and brings a slash/dash and PnR dimension that could elevate his game in similar role of Mo Williams, lol. similarly Mo also #7 and now just signed with Cavs. So expect Jlin to put up with 17/7 easy with weak eastern conference.

***** Trust in Lin and his team. They've made the right decision. But it's more like God had made the choice for him. Before FA period, Lin was in Taiwan doing teaching/lectures for his church. He brought up MJ's Hornets in his story. MJ, a legend with every accomplishments only best bb players can only dream about, is still not 100% happy because he is still chasing a championship, only this time as an owner. Fast forward to the future, who would have guess that JL #7 is now the engine that powers the Hornets and can make MJ's wish come true. It's faith. A bond was forged. There were Phil & MJ, Phil & Kobe, MD & Nash, MD & Lin. And now, there is Cliff & Lin. This new Hornets team will be exciting. The Big Four: Lin, Kemba, Batum & Big Al . This team can be the new Hawks team. Why not, they got coach Cliff. And coach Cliff got Lin. I can see them resemble the MD/Nash's Suns team. Let's Go Hornets, The Swarm! Grab that 4th Seed.

thanks:0

dude's good

Welcome to the warriors!!!

awesome!

謝謝 ^_^ LIN好可愛~.

It's really good to see an asian in the NBA. Jeremy Lin is as good as the stats says. Believe the hype.

never seen a vietnamese with last name "lin"

" That was luck, when you make it to win a game? that takes more skills.." - "Jeremy Lin has done that already " ~~~ again @ Raptors!

goin to the warriors baby!!!!

@Filipinos4Islanders just a fact so you know. you filipinos are mostly recognized as workers in factories here in taiwan. thanks to you ppl our economy gets to increase:)

@NbaNflNaruto, Hmm, as far as I know, there has been at least been 6 asian players played in the NBA. 5 from China, 1 from Korea, and that's not including Haddadi who's from Iran, which is technically part of Asia. Plus there are probably more that I don't know about.

Im officially on this guy.

u r the man!!! I will support Bay area!!! gogogo warrior!

the fact that he was recruited after being state player of the year in some magazines is ridiculous

@ming85c doesn't really matter, jeremy lin said "I am proud to be Chinese", so there you have it.

man i hope he makes the NBA. it would be awesome. First Asian American NBA player. i know theirs Yao and Yi in the NBA but they're from China, not quite the same as Lin whose born in the U.S.

linsanity! linfinity and beyond!

Haha. Look at this kid! I used to ball with Jeremy way back in the day. I was on a high school team with his brother, and Josh used to bring Jeremy to open gyms and shit. He could drop dimes then, but it looks like he's gained a little weight and gotent a lot taller, and has really come into his own. I didn't know he was almost done with school...damn I feel old.

the leg up on the jumper isn't awkward at all, kobe and vince do it all the time when they're fading away

The combined IQ on that Harvard team was probably greater than the rest of the arena combined.

Jeremy! 我以和你同姓為榮! 加油! 你帶給台灣小孩夢想! 證明我們也是可以的!

a pro athlete coming out of Harvard? amazing . . .

@hgf0818 His maternal grandmother. That means only one is from Zhejiang province.

he's mastered the art of shooting while falling down haha

@Filipinos4Islanders it's issues like these that keeps us asian americans so divided

I feel as an asian male, asians are very much discriminated in western societies including America, Britain, Germany and more nations. It's good to witness asians doing well. It's very much everyone's birthright to do well and prosper. Amen.

J Lin is my friend and I've played with him before and he is rediculous

Jeremy has this in common with other Taiwanese-Americans with former ATP-pro and world No. 2 Michael Chang, and R&B singer LeeHom Wang, and naturalized US citizens e.g. film director Ang Lee and Yahoo founder Jerry Yang ALL either capable of carrying both passports or eligible.

Been watching Jeremy Lin since his HS days in the Bay Area. Everyone is entitled to post enthusiastic comments about his b-ball skills. Hopefully, hed be able to take it to the next level, whether thats in Europe, CBA, NBA. On arguments of Jeremys nationality 100% American. Period but of Taiwanese heritage, NOT Chinese. He is by law a case of dual citizenship of the USA & ROC (Taiwan).

@xover76 They called the foul on the pass, not on the shot.

he's great anyway no matter he's taiwanese, chinese, or american 　 　 his parents are from 彰化, 台灣(taiwan) his grandparents are from 浙江, 中國(china) and now he lives in the us

Yo, brothers... Why all the hating? Come on... Lin bro is doing great. Let's all just enjoy his success. Taiwanese pride means going above the hate. Peace to both sides of the strait.

there are 2 different words for CHINESE in chinese: ．華人: usually yellow people who use chinese as main language. ．中國人: People who hold citizenship of the PRC.

Young Jeremy Lin-6 year Crazy-little-ball handler-basketball Prodigy

@MrXxiii me too. but unfortunately non of the teames picked him in the draft

yuta tabuse also made it to the nba.

his dad was born in Taiwan and moved to the US to go to purdue for his phd

Funny...Doug Gottlieb who is one of the broadcast crew on this game was going head to head with Bruce Bowen on ESPN about the Lin/Melo meshing issue. Gottlieb was making a bunch of silly arguments about Lin being better without Amare and Melo and Bowen was laughing at him. Gottlieb's big moment at the end was, "I ACTUALLY DID THE UCONN GAME WHEN HE DROPPED 30!" (Yeah, Doug, you also say in this clip that he's of Vietnamese descent. Genius research.)

@Filipinos4Islanders You can be proud to be Formosan too since most Filipinos' ancestors originated from Taiwan. Anyway, the term "Chinese" Lin mentioned here means more like race or culture... just like how the term Latino is used. However, in English, there isn't such a term for that that's why he said "Chinese". In Chinese, there is such usage like Latino: 華人/漢人/Hua-ren/Han.

I can detect a little bit of that, but keep in mind there aren't that many Asian-Americans playing basketball at the NCAA Division I level (let alone the NBA)... but Lin's story is just amazing.

@deedi01 He wasn't just undrafted. He wasn't even getting recruited by Division I schools when he was in high school. He had to walk on without a scholarship.

@ltlwatcher You're right, if Jeremy Lin plays for "Taiwan". The name on the front of his jersey will say "CHINESE Taipei".

Lol at the coach calling travel. That was legit.

@pinguinlord313 These are highlights of his 30 points, hard to score if you're passing

He was the best and most dominant player of the floor and still didn't get drafted. 2019 and RACISM is still in full effect.

Yes, I heard it too but at 2:25 the announcer says "his parents are Vietnamese descent". #justsaying

my video is still paused. can't fathom the brain damage.

@Igotnocool it's a comma, not a /. When did i say Chinese/Taiwanese did not = Asian? Also Chinese vs Taiwanese is a matter of opinion. There are differences between many Chinese people, considering that there are over 1 billion in the mainland. Don't try to preach to me you hopeless youtube troll.

Lin the Leonidas of basketball.

@kimbobrand7 He's also said it in his interviews and even on his Facebook. So obviously you don't know him that well.

@xgreatking Are you trying to tell me every country that is independent has fought a war? No, actually they haven't.

@icefrappe Actually, linguistically and archaeologically, most Koreans are descended from areas currently known as Mongolia and Siberia. Also, the Y-DNA haplogroups, mtDNA haplogroups and a 2010 autosomal study, show that some Koreans have distinct difference from Chinese. In a 2009 study, Korean have no Austronesian DNA, where as Chinese have some in their DNA. In essence, Koreans are decent from Mongolians and Siberians.
