Incredible coverage of JLin’s trip to Taiwan and China

In case you didn’t know, Jeremy Lin has been on a whirlwind tour of Taiwan and China the past couple of weeks.

Raymond has done an AWESOME job posting lots of stories, photos and video links of Jeremy’s trip in the forum. I was hoping I could post a summary of all of Jeremy’s activities, but the amount of content is so amazing, it would take me days to recap it all.

Instead, I just urge you to click here and scroll through all the photos and stories yourself to get a glimpse of what Jeremy has been doing (make sure to click on the additional page links at the bottom of each page — currently 7 pages and counting).

But I had to post at least one photo of Jeremy here. The one below is Jeremy with Rocket teammate Chandler Parsons holding Jeremy’s 25th birthday cake at a basketball camp they were conducting last week. Pretty cool design on the cake, huh?

If you think Yao’s photo with J.J. Watt a few months ago made J.J. look small, take a look at this one of Yao with boxers Manny Pacquiao (who stands 5′ 7″) and Brandon Rios.
