Maybe we can take this kid in the 2nd round. Lots of asians in NY. This kid would be a hit. I am a bit biased here though.

I liker the way he just Ds up after dunking. No preening at all.

Draft Projection: Second round to undrafted

Notes:
Lin impressed in a win over Boston College and UConn.

Positives:


Quick point guard
Excellent scorer
Good athlete
Tenarcious defender
Excellent motor
High basketball IQ
A leader on the floor

Negatives:


Doesn't play against great competition at Harvard
A bit of a tweener

Summary: Dec 11 Update: Keep an eye on Harvard's Jeremy Lin. We mentioned him last year when Lin dropped 27 points, 8 dimes and 6 steals on Boston College. Lin is at it again this year. He had 30 points and 9 rebounds against UConn and then followed that performance up by torching B.C. again for 25 points in a huge upset win.
Lin is a terrific scorer, quick, has good leaping ability and is a nice size for a point guard. The fact that he's an Asian-American guard playing at Harvard has probably kept him off the NBA radar too long. But as scouts are hunting everywhere for point guards, more and more are coming back and acknowledging that Lin is a legit prospect.

It doesn't look like he cracks anyone's top 30 at the moment. However, if he finishes strong and has great workouts against some of the better prospects in the draft, his stock could soar.

Let's try to elevate the level of discourse in this byeetch. Please

My apologies. I was completely unaware that someone is already driving the Jeremy Lin bandwagon. When did this happen? Whose driving?

I discovered Lin last year but always just thought he was a feel good story and would never be seriously considered a 2nd rounder.

Would you put your life on it, fish? I think just because of his uniqueness he would be 2nd round. Like back in the early 90s when no one wanted to pick a European with a first round pick. I think Kukoc went in the 2nd, too. Kukoc went very late in 2nd actually.
