Since the topic is more of the person than the sport, I've decided to post it here.
"I've surrendered that to God. I'm not in a battle with what everybody else thinks anymore." --- Jeremy Lin

"Players playing that well don't usually come out of nowhere. It seems like they come out of nowhere, but if you can go back and take a look, his skill level was probably there from the beginning. It probably just went unnoticed.” — Kobe Bryant, after Lin scored 38 points on February 10, 2012.
"The excitement [Lin] has caused in [Madison Square] Garden, man, I hadn't seen that in a long time." -- Magic Johnson
"The most surprising story in the NBA." -- Associated Press
"The greatest tribute" -- The New York Times
"Congratulations Jeremy. You have now made the cover of Time the same number of times as Michael Jordan. Linsanity reigns on." -- Forbes

Kudos to this young Christian warrior who has dedicated his career for the Glory of God. May he serve as a shining example and inspiration to all who embrace the principle: "Pray hard! Work hard! Play hard!

Lin is definitely an incredible story. It's always neat to see a Christian athlete excel in a sport. He just scored 28 today against the Mavs.
