Why Jeremy Lin is not the NBA's version of Tim Tebow

First of all, if you don’t know who Jeremy Lin is, shame on you!

Lin graduated from Harvard in 2010, and had been floating around the NBA since then before being signed by the New York Knickerbockers late in December. He played in the D-League (the NBA’s version of the minor leagues), was called up in late January because of various injuries, and is now tearing up the NBA by beating some of the game’s biggest stars.

Have you seen #Linsanity trending on Twitter? Yup, it’s about this guy.

But now that he’s emerged out of nowhere as someone who has beaten the odds, everybody wants to talk about how he’s just like Tim Tebow. But I’m here to tell you he’s no Tim Tebow, not at all.

He’s so much better.
