Jeremy Lin Receives Interest From Multiple Teams In China 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Wed Aug 14, 2019 9:04 pm

Jeremy Lin has received interest from multiple Chinese Basketball Association teams.


Lin remains a free agent and has received tepid interest from NBA teams.


Lin is giving the interest from China serious consideration.

given the political tensions between china and hong kong, i highly doubt he goes... before i get flagged for political talk, i think in this case, politics has to be involved in his decision making.. he will lose a fan base in taiwan and hong kong if he goes.. he shouldnt, but he will. fans be fans.

It's surprising that he didn't catch on with a European club. He's either not taking many calls or his injuries are more serious than they seem.

I think he honestly just wants to play in the US. He would start and be a draw on almost any international team; if he wanted to go he would be gone already.

I read Lin turned down an offer from CSKA Moscow. So Im sure other teams in Europe are interested in him but he doesnt want to go.

Mid season injuries and one of the teams will pick him up. Raps picked him up because FVV was out and delon was traded to Memphis. Hang in there Lin, too bad it didnt work out with Raps
