    Jeremy's talk start at 1:06:20

    I'd recommend people ignore what LOF/LOH says about Jeremy, but listen to what he say himself.

    He needs to tap into his inner self, he will gain confidence and become a better player.

    There was a comic drawn by cf which is about Lin's inside demon and Mchale.

    A rare kind of moment for Lin: he admits to having believed himself to be the cornerstone of the franchise when he first signed.

    " Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me." :p

    Joking aside, I like watching Jeremy's testimonies because he opens up a lot instead of saying all the right things.

    Hope he has a good season ahead.

    Probably what they told him when they recruited him from the Knicks. Probably also what they told Dwight. And also why Asik doesn't want to stick around as he saw what happened to Lin.

    I'd recommend you not create threads anymore.

    It was one of the more open speeches I've listened to. Though I'm not religious at all, I thought it was good message.

    Yeah you can really see what he feels. A lot better then generic answers from listening to other NBA stars

    this is my first post on clutch fans:

    first off i'd like to tell you guys i'm a big lin fan (i think he can be a great pg in our system) and i'm a longtime houston rockets and houston texans fan since i was little

    but lin is talking about things that are really important, the evil power of money, and i commend him for doing so, but the truth is he is very naive about the real consequences of our monetary system on human well-being and human flourishing

    watch this if you want to know the ugly truth behind our monetary system today and several other cultural fallacies: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EewGMBOB4Gg

    By the same token, you don't deserve been a human being.

    That was very interesting stuff from Jeremy. I haven't heard him speak about himself like that all last season. Thanks for posting.

    He should team up and tour with this guy. I think he's talking about Royce White at 15:50.

    On a related note, Lin needs to man up. I'd be roasting for days if his fans on here weren't so sensitive.

    We have Hakeem and McHale to mentor Dwight. We need Charles Oakley to come and mentor Lin. Imagine Lin trying to explain the situation to Oakley after he walks in on Lin crying with his legs crossed, writing in his diary because he got crossed up by Toney Douglas in practice that day.
