“Growing up my older brother was really helpful for me. Not only would he protect me, spend a ton of time with me, I would follow him around so when he went to practice, I would go to his practice and watch or shoot on the side when he would go and do his track workouts. His team would be working out on one side of the track and I would go to the other and just copy what they were doing. I would just follow my brother around all the time, he would let me do it and he would play with me all the time, he would just take care of me. I always felt like that was someone that I wanted to become. That was somebody that’s really inspired me and kind of showed me the way. As we got older he really taught me what it means to be a man of god, what it means to care and love for other people and I think those are the lessons that I really learned at a young age which is invaluable in a lot of ways.” – Jeremy Lin, @nba Point Guard with @brooklynnets (2/4)
