“My dad, when he moved from Taiwan to America, he fell in love with the game. So when we were growing up, we basically grew up with a ball in our hands, me and my brothers would always play together. From basically the moment I can remember, I was just like ‘man I really love this sport.’ Growing up I enjoyed teamwork a lot. It’s a team sport obviously and everyone plays a unique role, you can’t have everybody trying to score, so you know everyone has a different part. On top of that, I think it was something that brought my family together, we would play sports a lot together, we played basketball a lot together. Then I had my role model in basketball, which was Jordan. Watching him, I was like ‘man I want to do that, I want to be that.’” – Jeremy Lin, @nba Point Guard with @brooklynnets (1/4)
