[quote="simeon"]http://www.newyorker.com/news/sporting-scene/jeremy-lins-younger-brother-joe-chases-his-basketball-dreams/amp
Does joe lin have a chance in the CBA?
[size=125][color=#FF0000]Skill wise, PROBABLY he is good enough for CBA[/color] [color=#BF0000]when compared to some Chinese point guards playing in CBA. [/color]
[color=#FF0000]But the thing is Joseph Lin is an American holding USA passport, I guess.
So he won't be eligible to qualify[/color] [color=#BF0000]technically as a Taiwanese player that could be recruited by CBA teams as a local player. [/color]
[color=#FF0000]Unless a CBA team is willing to SPLASH BIG $$$$$ and SACRIFICE 1 of the 2 expat slots to recruit him, he probably can't join CBA. [/color][/size]

Well easy solution for him is to get his taiwan passport and then he can be a local CBA player. No way any CBA team will use their foreign spot on him.
That would be interesting, I wonder if he would adapt to living in China, since his life in Taiwan seems pretty comfortable.

[size=125][color=#FF0000]Well, China is NOT that BACKWARD as compared to Taiwan.  [/color]
[color=#BF0000]In fact it would be[/color][color=#FF0000] MORE ADVANCED[/color][color=#BF0000] in terms of living standard, transportation, cuisine/food, e-commerce, dependent on cities/teams he chooses to stay/play.[/color]
[color=#FF0000]For example in Hangzhou, it is becoming the FIRST CASHLESS city of China where one needs NO USE of cash; [/color][color=#BF0000]every facet of life (transportation on bus, ferry, train; shopping in supermarket, mall, or even street hawkers/newspaper stalls) can be done through[/color][color=#FF0000] AliPay (by Alibaba), or WeChat Pay (Tencent).[/color][/size]

[size=125][color=#FF0000]YEAH..............THAT'S TOUGH !!!
But I've SOLVED it !!!![/color] 
[color=#BF0000]I recently bought a new router that can[/color] [color=#FF0000]AUTOMATICALLY BYPASS[/color][color=#BF0000] the Great Firewall, and now I no longer use proxies and can access all the sites that were previously banned by China: facebook, Instagram, Twitter Youtube, South China Morning Post, Apple Daily, Next Magazine.........the list just goes on and on !!!

[size=125][color=#FF0000]DON'T THINK Jeremy got his Taiwan passport.
THEROCIALLY he could, [/color] [color=#BF0000]as unlike China, Taiwan does not enforce[/color][color=#FF0000] DUAL NATIONALITY[/color] [color=#BF0000], i.e. Taiwanese American can apply Taiwan passport without giving up his US passport.[/color]
[color=#FF0000]Even Joseph Lin is employed as a US expat [/color][color=#BF0000]in the Fubong Braves in the Taiwan’s Super Basketball League.[/color]
