Peter King summed it up great today in his MMQB:
"Lin appeals to so many factions in our society. The underdog faction ... because he went to Harvard, was cut by two teams, was in the minor leagues and, when he exploded in New York, was apparently on the verge of getting cut again. The minority faction ... because so few Chinese and Taiwanese kids have become very good NBA players, obviously. The team faction ... and I honestly think this is the biggest reason. Every time Lin opens his mouth, he talks about "team.'' When he was asked about playing the D-League, he said he hated it because it wasn't about trying to put the best team on the floor to win games; it was about guys getting the best stats they could get. Lin just wants to win. This is why coaches in all sports, all over America, can hold up Lin to their players and say, "See? It's not just about making top plays on 'SportsCenter.' It's about winning, and doing whatever you can to win, first and foremost.''
