Linsanity Covers Time Magazine

LINSANITY! JEREMY LIN LIGHTS UP THE NBA

Quote: 
Reporter: I heard you refer to this as a miracle from God and I wonder if you can talk about how your life has changed in the last week and a half?


Jeremy Lin: I would say it's a miracle just because anytime something like this happens (...) a lot of stuff has to be put into place and a lot of it is out of my control. If you look back at my story and it doesn't matter where you look, but God's fingerprints are all over the place (...)You can try to call it coincidence but at the end of the day, there are 20 or 30 things when you combine, a lot had to happen at the right time in order for me to be here. That's why I call it a miracle."

Subliminal Matters: is the current rave more about Jeremy Lin's ethnicity or his skills or both?; asians can ball too; is this superstar basketballer NBA boycott redemption?; "Linsanity"

Ad Review: I'd buy this issue just by seeing the cover. Everyone loves an NBA sensation. Jeremy Lin on the cover of Time conveys the prestige he just walked into. After the NBA went on boycott and we all witnessed what felt like the rich fighting for more money, or what's otherwise called greed, I'm sure
we would not have penned Jeremy Lin into NBA redemption. 


It's always great to see someone break the mould in sports. Time magazine did good here, the cover says it all about basketball and the player. The fact that Lin is Asian brings back the game in a way that reminds us of the universal appeal and gelling effect only sports can have on people. The Linsane buzz has managed to really bring back the NBA. See below, for the linsanest thing you've seen at the NBA in a while!
