    I think it should be Super Lintendo

    Best, not copying Vince Carter's old nickname of Vinsanity.

    Super Lintendo works because Lin is Japanese and Nintendo is a Vietnamese company so they are basically the same thing. Plus I'm sure he plays video games.

    Lin isn't Japanese. He's Taiwanese. Not the same thing.

    Lin is indian


    lol everyone is claiming him

    Anyways, I just thought about the marketing for this kid. You have an asian baller, relatable as in he is a rags to rich story and a guard, not too crazy athletic, he is intelligent, clean cut, harvard grad, plays in the biggest market in the NBA and has ties to the biggest market in the world in China....There must be a huge bidding war to sign him

    I'm pretty sure he said he was Korean.
    His Korean name is Lin Yo Hwan. The Emperor.

    Linsanity is the most often used term so far.

    Considering how much of a Linderella story and an Linspiration Jeremy Lin is, I think he should not be Linited to just Vince's Linsanity. It's Linbarrassing to think someone so great would have recycled material when he just popped up out of nowhere like a Linja. So, if I were to pick one or two for the future GOAT it would have to be Mr. Lincredible or Linception.
