NBA: Jeremy Lin Admits He Has Been “Exposed”
I could of told you this was going to happen last year. I am a Knicks fan and never bought into “Linsanity”. I am actually happy the Knicks decided not to bring him back, I thought he was wayyyy to over hyped for such a small sample of games. Judging by the early success of New York this season, I am sure they are also happy Lin is gone. Seems like Lin himself may be realizing he is not as good as the media and fans tried to believe he was. Read below after the jump for the story. IamJOE357
NBA (Photos): Fans Go In On Houston Rockets Rookie Royce White
Fans can be so harsh!! LOL. Last week we did a story on Houston Rockets rookie Royce White, who suffers from severe anxiety disorder. His disorder is so severe he is already debating about retiring from professional basketball because he feels his team is not doing enough to help him with his disease and to try and accommodate him. He does not like to fly, which is a huge red flag for a professional athlete since games are played all over the country. I don’t really feel any pity for the dude because he has had this disorder for years, but has still continued to play ball knowing once he got to the NBA he would have to deal with a lot. Check the gallery above for some tweets from NBA fans to White that let him know how they really feel. IamJOE357
