Last year I touted the virtues of Yi Jianlian and how happy he was to be playing in the NBA. But Yi is old, a bust, playing on the Wizards, etc. Can newcomer Jeremy Lin possibly top Yi in the happy department? Here is Jeremy laughing it up with a fellow minority in the NBA. Way to bond with your teammates, Jeremy! Spoiler Jeremy Lin fights for the ball with such a great attitude. Even Clippers MVP Brian Cook is amused! Spoiler Look how happy Jeremy is while being mugged by two black men. Spoiler Jeremy yuks it up in front of the camera with teammate Reggie Williams. Spoiler Here is Jeremy being interviewed at a press conference. He seems quite happy to be between two balls. Spoiler Jeremy Lin, new happy superstar!

Happy for Lin. He's living his dream and making history while he's at it. I bet he's more popular in the Bay than ellis or curry lol. They have a huge asian community down there.
lin played 16 minutes tonight against the lakers due to curry's injury. he actually did pretty well. was very active on defense, leading to 4 steals (and also 5 fouls, lol). 3 assists and 2 points on 1 for 5 shooting. was very aggressive driving to the hoop and finding open teammates. i think the most promising thing about him is just how well-liked he is by his teammates and the community. a good attitude in a good situation will go a long way in making a smooth transition to the nba.
