Jeremy Lin revealed an emotional story about how desperately he wanted to stay in New York, stating that he was willing to reject a $29 million offer from the Rockets.

It was just a shadow that I couldn't outrun. And I think how I used to see it was look, I'm competitive. I'm ambitious. So if you're talking about what happened in 2012, that means I haven't done my job as a player.

Former NBA point guard Jeremy Lin discussed the end of his tenure with the New York Knicks as well as his relationship with former star forward Carmelo Anthony on Tuesday.

Jeremy Lin, the man who captivated Knicks fans by going on a Linsanity run, got a huge ovation from the MSG crowd in Game 3 of the NBA Finals.

Jeremy Lin believes Jalen Brunson’s biggest contribution to the New York Knicks’ NBA Finals run may have come off the court. Lin returned to Madison Square Garden as a spectator for Game 3 — his first time back in the venue since his last season in the NBA in 2018-2019.

Honestly, I'll say this. Jeremy and Linsanity happened when Carmelo Anthony and Amare Stoudemire were hurt. And so there was a lot of messaging from different guys in the locker room and people around the team that said one thing and guys that said the other.

Linsanity is returning to The Garden for Games 3 and 4 of the NBA Finals. Former Knicks guard Jeremy Lin, who set the city ablaze in Feb. 2012 as an undrafted rookie out of Harvard, has only been back at Madison Square Garden as an opposing player after his unceremonious departure from the team – until now.

Lin says one Madison Square Garden moment during Linsanity felt almost unreal, leaving him convinced he was floating off the ground from the crowd’s energy.
