    I didn't Linsanity went late and the buzz for Spring Breakers was insane. I think it filled up a 1200 seat theater

    Lol.. Jeremy really cracks me up. 25mil nba player. Drives a dirty Volvo that he got for free as his sponsor. Drives to Austin with his buddies listening to church praise music. Glad he hasn't changed a bit.

    Thanks for the pics and videos tinman. They're great. I love the shot of Jeremy sitting in the cheap seats. :) Thanks for posting them so quickly after your long, tiring day.

    Cool that you got to ask a question too. At the risk of annoying you by adding another twitter post here, I'm thinking this might be about the response to your Q:
    <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p>"It was hard to work during the whole 'Linsanity' thing. In a much better fit in Houston."- Jeremy Lin (@<a href="https://twitter.com/jlin7">jlin7</a>) <a href="https://twitter.com/search/%23Linsanity">#Linsanity</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/search/%23sxsw">#sxsw</a></p>&mdash; Good Morning Texas (@GoodMorningTX) <a href="https://twitter.com/GoodMorningTX/status/310939999828844544">March 11, 2013</a></blockquote>
    <script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>No one asked him why Coach McHale hates him? kidding, kidding, of course

    Again, thanks for sharing your night with us. Too bad you didn't get to see Spring Breakers.

    Not a problem.

    I was exhausted anyways. Yes I remember that response. I'll post my review later . And yes I thought it was good.

    Daryl Morey made an appearance in the movie. As well as Kevin Durant.

    Barkley drove a truck when he was with the Rockets. I think was a Ford or Chevy.

    A truck is ok, you have an excuse not to drive it all the time. If you make a commercial for Pepsi, you can't get caught drinking Coke in public. Alicia Key had to give up on her Iphone to use exclusively Blackberry.

    Lin's car is deceptively clean, if you don't look at the back window, you can't tell it's even dirty.:grin:

    What a religious nutcase, why does Lin have to mention playing for God every single time? We get it, you believe in that space daddy, but you've been pretty ****ty the past few games, how about start praying to God to improve your game?
