Have you been swept with #Linsanity? Are you #Linning these days? Whether you are a Knicks fan, a proud Taiwanese American, or just a fan of great basketball chances are you have heard the name Jeremy Lin. The 6’3 200 point guard from Harvard has come out of nowhere and swept the nation with an insustainable fever. Now everyone and their mother is looking to buy a Jeremy Lin Jersey.
Good thing for you, we have some Continue reading
Real estate developer and uber-Russian attorney Edward Mermelstein offered NY Knick superstar Jeremy Lin a 1 bedroom apartment free of charge until Lin finds his own place to sleep. Mermelstein is a court-side front row NY Knick season ticket holder for many years.
“As a New Yorker, its very rare that someone like Jeremy Lin comes along to electrify this city, and this humble young man has excited all of NYC – and we love his energy. He’s a hard working passionate young man – and as a NY Knick, and Harvard graduate I am sure its not long until he’ll have his own place to stay – but in the meantime I’d be honored to offer him an apartment for his use. Every father tells his son if you go to Harvard, I will let you play ball – well Lin’s got it all and we have lots of respect for him.”
Edward A. Mermelstein (born c. 1967) is Continue reading
Jeremy Lin is making the Knicks must see TV. Just as it looked like the Knicks were dead in the water, waiting on Baron Davis and his back here comes Lin out of virtually nowhere balling out of control. Mike D’Antoni is probably thanking whatever deity he prays too everyday that the Knicks decided to carry Lin on their roster this season.
Here is a video of Lin blowing past former #1 overall pick John Wall and throwing it down with a dunk. Remember this is a UNDRAFTED PLAYER out of Harvard being defended by the #1 overall pick OF THE SAME YEAR…

So I accidentally had ESPN2 on my TV when I woke up and awoke to seeing Skippy Bayless and Jemele Hill tackling the topic of this blogpost on “First Take.” As many of you who follow the twitter account know, I try not to watch First Take anymore because of their tendencies to make up stories to mention certain athlete’s names EVERY morning. It really is OD. Until they stop creating faux news I won’t be watching…
But anyways, on to the topic at hand. Is Tyler Zeller to blame for UNC losing?
First and foremost Continue reading
Jeremy Lin has emerged as the surprise of the NBA season so far. But where did this guy come from? We have decided to take a look back at all of the scouting reports written on Jeremy coming out of Harvard. Continue reading
The Knicks have been struggling. No doubts about it. People have been whispering rumors of an Amare Stoudemire trade, firing Mike D’Antoni, anything to get the Knicks back rolling.
If you’ve watched any of the Knicks games (I sadly have watched about 4 in the last month) you can see the problem with the team- too many ball stoppers on the court. Between Carmelo, Shumpert, Amare, Douglas, too many shoot first players play together in some of their lineups. Maybe that has changed since Jeremy Lin has emerged!
In the video below Lin goes H.A.M. on the Nets and All Star Deron Williams. Check it out below: Continue reading
This is hysterical. Throughout the last 3-4 years Lebron has been the best player in the league hands down, and one of the biggest criticisms his haters can spew is “his hairline is thinning!” Who really cares when you’re rich? I don’t have the exact statistic in front of me but I believe something like 75% of ALL men get male pattern baldness… eventually most of the people clowning on Lebron will start thinning too. Isn’t that ironic?
Anyways, Charles Barkley decided to give Lebron some advice on NBA on TNT. “Come on home bro, shave your head.”

Blake Griffin is not a human being. That is all.
The story of Gilbert Arenas will always be a warning sign to any young budding superstar. Once argued as a top 10 NBA player, Arenas suffered successive knee injuries lost his burst and hasn’t been the same man since. And that’s just on the court.
Off the court Arenas was involved in one of the craziest stories to hit an NBA locker room. After a high stakes bet went wrong, Arenas and then Wizards teammate Javaris Crittenton ended up being caught with firearms in the team facilities. Gil was suspended and when he returned from his suspension the team already had their sights on Continue reading
Its’s been a long road for former Kentucky Center Daniel Orton. Once a developmental prospect for a top 5 squad in the Eastern Conference, Orton’s career derailed about the same time the Magic started to derail and become a bottom feeder in the East.
Orton was left on the bench, assigned to NBA Developmental League, then was injured on his road towards getting minutes in the league. Thankfully all that is over as he finally got some burn in probably the Magic’s worst Continue reading
