Jeremy Lin, Knicks basketball and Asian, Chinese madness

Jeremy Lin, NBA basketball

Since Jeremy Lin started playing basketball for the New York Knicks a few week ago, they have been doing well. Knicks have won six games in a row partly due to good performance of Jeremy Lin who is of Chinese descent. However, things have gone a bit too far almost to the verge of insanity because of Chinese Asians.

There is an explosion of Asians watching and talking about basketball. People are willing to pay more to watch Lin play. Every time Jeremy Lin plays, which has been about six times with Knicks so far, the Asians bombard the internet with flood of twits, tags and chatter about the greatness of Chinese basketball player.
