Absolutely insane to say that a guard from Harvard who played in the nba for a decade “wasn’t very good” and compare him to Tim fucking Tebow. They’re not even close.

Tim Tebow’s baseball career started and ended while Jeremy Lin was playing his what, 5th of ten NBA seasons?

The Tebow comparison is objectively terrible. Jeremy Lin was a fine NBA player.

I *was* a casual NBA fan, now there’s no room on the docket. Anyway, I heard Lins name an order of magnitude greater than Tebow’s and 99% of the time it was because of his accomplishments, not some on-field brand. People are insane with these takes.

Tebow made a 53-man roster three times. Lin made a 15-man roster 10 times. Just an absurd comparison.

Lin's career EFG% is higher than Tebow's career completion%.

Linsanity was basketball RomoMania. Inverted Tebow is Kaepernick - the fact people didn't like him off the field resulted in a career less accomplished than it would have been based on talent.

I agree with this in a way, but Kap could actually sling a football. Tebow’s mechanics were about as good as mine.

I'm saying the only reason Tebow kept getting chances was because people wanted him to succeed.

If you get good results you are, in fact, good.

Yes. And that’s a rather large account here!
