And this is what it takes to feed a sensation these days. Alex Wu, a
Taiwanese man recently graduated from the University of Virginia, woke up
Sunday to a Facebook page exploding with news of a man much like himself who
tore apart the New Jersey Nets the night before. And he wondered: Just who
was this Jeremy Lin?
Which is how he and his UVA friends Shane Gao and Peter Chen found
themselves as part of a group of five walking into the Verizon Center on
Wednesday night wearing Knicks blue T-shirts with pieces of Lin's last name
and his No. 17 spelled on the shirts in orange tape.
"I'm actually Chinese," Gao said. "But he's like a brother so it's all good."
Like Wu, Gao had heard of Lin only this past weekend as had Sean Tong from
Springfield, Va., who draped himself in the Taiwan flag on Wednesday. Like
Wu, his friends had mocked him on Facebook and Twitter. What do you mean you
don't know about Jeremy Lin? And so he came to find out for himself. |
