Hard to imagine Linsanity was just 14 months ago. But maybe that's because Palo Alto High graduate Jeremy Lin, who visits Oakland tonight when his Houston Rockets take on the Warriors, has proved he's nothing but a fluke.
Lin, whose NBA tour of duty exploded into international superstardom during an amazing run last year with the Knicks, has proven he belongs in the league, according to the San Jose Mercury News.
Last year Lin provided the spark necessary to propel the Knicks into the postseason. This year he's the Rockets' starting point guard -- after, of course, he had a brief time in a Warriors jersey his rookie season.
The Warriors know full well how effective Lin and his teammates are in coach Kevin McHale's freewheeling, shoot-first offense, which dropped a record number of three-pointers on the W's in a 140-109 win recently.
"Linsanity, man," Warriors point guard Stephen Curry told the newspaper. "It wasn't overrated at all."

林书豪表示他依然和勇士队的朋友有联系,他与库里和李的联系特别密切。火箭队上周在主场迎战勇士队的时候,林书豪还和库里和李一起共进晚餐。林书豪是一位知道感恩的人,在火箭队与国王队的比赛之后,他还和前主教练凯斯-斯玛特共进晚餐。
“在我的新秀赛季,库里和李给了我很多照顾。”林书豪说,“李总是让我知道什么是正确的。而在我的训练当中,库里总是给我意见,让我变得更好。我在训练中对位 库里整整一年的时间,那让我变得更快、更敏捷、更了解比赛。这是很好的,我肯定记得那段日子,因为没有他们,我就不会是现在的我。”
