With a breathtaking buzzer-beater in Toronto to push the Knicks over the Raptors 90-87 Tuesday night, the Lin-credible story of Jeremy Lin continues.
But part of the fun when it comes to Lin’s winning run with the Knicks are the puns that follow the 23-year-old’s success in the headlines. HLN’s Vinnie (or "Linnie") Politan -- who also happens to be a Knicks fan -- gives us his top 10 sports puns for the unstoppable Jeremy Lin:
10. Playing teams like a vio-Lin
9. Lin-sane in the membrane!
8. A Lin-ternational sensation (he has a large fan base in China)
7. He’s got Lin-telligence, too! (Lin is a Harvard grad)
6. All they do is Lin, Lin, Lin
5. He’s a Lin-spiration
4. Lin-credible!
3. Lin-ning!
2. Lin-sanity
And the #1 Jeremy Lin pun according to Vinnie is … it’s a Lin-derella Story!
