No one could of ever imagined the amount of success Jeremy Lin has had in the past couple weeks. Admitting doubts of Lin not being able to play defense and finishing at the basket, his own coach Mike D’Antoni was even weary of giving him a legitimate chance. But as the Harvard graduate continues to fuel the Knicks with a three game win streak without their star powers, averaging 25.3 points and 8.3 assists over his past three games, we’re amped Linsanity continues.

Either Kobe Bryant has been living under a rock, or just doesn’t keep up with NBA’s daily headlines, as he said he had no idea of Lin’s emergence. During his post game interview after beating the Celtics last night, the fifth highest scoring player in NBA history said he wasn’t aware of the Linsanity movement.

“What? I have no idea, I mean I know who he is, but I don’t really know what’s going on too much with that.”

Make sure you tune in tonight when the Knicks square off against the Lakers at 8PM, televised on MSG and ESPN.

Has Lin finally found a place to stay besides on his brother’s couch? More coverage of Linsanity after the jump.

Even though it’s only been three games, Lin has proven he’s a point guard not to underestimate. And while many question if he’ll be able to sustain his numbers for the rest of the season, we’re still amazed by his recent performance against the Wizards.

From Harvard to the NBA, here’s a little summary of the ups and downs he’s been through since finding success with the Knicks.

If all the nicknames, gifs and raps about Lin aren’t enough, the Fung Brothers present “The Lin Effect.”

Young Jeezy already has his TM103 song “I Do” packed with the star power of Jay-Z and Andre 3000, but now he’s added on Drake for good measure. The original version was recorded two years ago, so maybe the Drake verse is to refresh it.
