Inside a move that surprised nobody the NBA has decided to milk Linsanity for all that it’s worth, getting Jeremy Lin on the BBVA Rising Stars game during 2012 NBA All-Star Weekend in Orlando. Initially NBA Commissioner David Stern was unwilling to buy into the “Linsanity” claiming that the NBA wouldn’t allow Lin to be involved inside a regardingmer Rookie-Sophomore game, feeding him a courtesy possiblity to be apart of the boring-ass skill competition, but Stern reconsidered his position.
Both Lin and Heat rookie Norris Cole were added towards the Rising Stars roster tearing the total to 20 players, with Lin being selected 3rd by Shaq (aka “Black Pat Riley”) who will perchance be facing off against Inside The NBA partner Charles Barkley with every single men coaching a squad. After assembling arguably the best first FIVE comences in NBA history (at least for a lockout season) Lin has become an worldwide phenomenon and the proverbial “Neo” of the Asian community since the unfortunate retirement of Yao Ming.
Lin’s bucket-getting fell off a tad in his last game versus the Kings, but he did drop 13 dimes and also the Knicks won their 7th straight game, nicely their longest winning streak of the season, so the Yellow Mamba perhaps wasn’t tripping.
