Jeremy Lin’s rise from obscure benchwarmer to NBA sensation has been the feel good story of February. However, there has been a dark side to the New Knicks point guard’s improbable ascent: the terrible, awful puns based on his last name.
It's been a long time since New York basketball fans have had something to cheer about, but now they've found a new hero in Jeremy Lin, who has seemingly gone from no one to a rising superstar over night.
Last night Lin did it again, sinking a game-winning three-pointer with less than a second remaining to give the Knicks a 90-87 win over the Toronto Raptors.
