It has been some time since Jeremy Lin shed tears at the large-scale sermon in Taiwan. I carefully watched his nearly one-hour video of this sharing session. After listening to the previous paragraph, my thinking can still keep up, but the later I listen, the better I realized that besides not being able to work in English and not being able to enter Yang Kan's company to get a position, my understanding of Chinese seemed to be problematic, and even a trace of self-confidence appeared in the logical thinking ability that I have always been proud of. It took me a while to get over. After all, a person who is passionate about Oriental culture should not be worthy to talk about faith, and it is normal for me not to understand.
So we still need to imitate the actions of most manuscripts on the Internet. When talking about Jeremy Lin's tears, avoid the long 30 minutes later and focus on the first 20 minutes.
In this regard, the reports you have seen are largely unbiased: Jeremy Lin shed tears when talking about the prospects of his free agency market that nobody cares about.
He said so well that when people are at the bottom of the valley, there is only one way to go, which is to climb up, but, "I feel that I am at the bottom every year."
The word "bottom" hurts many people's hearts. , Because there are always people who will answer:
Is a basketball player who has a Harvard degree, played in the NBA for 9 years, and has a total career income of more than 50 million, and can’t get an NBA contract at the age of 30, is it a bottom? ? You must know that the average length of service of NBA players is less than 5 years.
If this counts as the bottom of the valley, what should I do if I chase Lin Chiling for ten years and still marry someone else?
There is nothing to refute about this view, because this is nonsense. At this time, Lu Xun should be moved out to explain this question:
The joys and sorrows of human beings are not interlinked.
People who cannot understand Jeremy Lin’s loss of emotion are roughly the same as those who cannot understand why the aunts who were laid off in 1996 are so keen on their sons to apply for civil service examinations. They only get a good life from the good life they imagined and their lust. To determine whether others are struggling or not in real life, whether it’s accusing millionaires upwards or blaming mediocre people downwards, it just exposes one's ignorance to the greatest extent in Lu Xun’s 1927 firecrackers— —I just think they are noisy.
After reaching an agreement with you on this issue, we still have reason to dig out why Jeremy Lin believes that he is in the bottom today.
Jeremy Lin said at the sermon: "My ultimate dream is to be the player I want to be."
said that he didn't want to come to Asia because he knew he needed to face everyone with a smile and shared with everyone "I don't feel worthy "The championship.
What kind of player is worthy of that championship?
At the end of his career, Gary Payton went to the Lakers to form F4, failed to rush to the championship, and then switched to the Heat, finally fulfilling his wish.
No matter what Payton thinks, whether he feels worthy or not, as a bystander overlooking history and a keyboard man, we can vaguely glimpse the truth:
Payton's championship is as meaningless as fat tits. The meaninglessness of
may be a bit exaggerated. After all, Payton has made a lot of contributions to the Heat’s 2006 championship, but it’s a more brilliant career than his own, which is a bonus to this championship. It doesn’t make much sense anymore. This may also be the reason why Durant chose to leave. For superstars, only the championship won when they play a heavy role in the team will have the whole career. More decisive meaning.
For ordinary players like Jeremy, their standard line is of course much lower than that of superstars, but this does not mean that they don’t have a line deep in their hearts. For example, Jeremy may not want to be a champion ball. The core figure of the team, but he also aspires to play a certain role in it. This role may be the role that Van Vleet played in this year’s finals, but the fact is that he just sat on the bench and watched the entire total. finals.
So what kind of player does Jeremy think he should be?
He repeatedly mentioned in his speechAt this point, he said that he had waited for 8 years, and 8 years ago was the year Lin Madness happened.
I don’t know what you think of Lin Madness that year. For me, it was the most exciting year since I watched football. I surpassed the yellow Mamba to pick up the Mavericks alone, and surpassed Rose’s 50-point night. Surpassing the 2017 Livingston slashing knights, and even the series that Stephenson tried to trigger LeBron ASMR. The story of the bookstore in that year surpassed all the above-mentioned classics of disability or mental disability, crossing time and space in my hippocampus. A trace was severely carved in the body.
I still remember the game against the Lakers. When Jeremy succeeded in the last quarter, I reached a climax just like you did. And when Jeremy Lin smashed Amir Johnson against the Raptors and scored 2+1, the cigarette butt in my hand had already begun to sway, and moaning was an indispensable accessory product; and when Jeremy Lin pointed Jiangshan and looked back, he almost knelt down. When D'Antoni motioned the team to sink to the bottom line to open up space for labor and management, I was thinking about how to write this script, but my brain had obviously entered a stagnant state-and Jeremy Lin made that three-pointer-I howled When she got up, the old lady slammed open the door and rushed in, with a serious expression:
"What's the matter?"
Nothing, my dear mother, Jeremy Lin is here.
I certainly won't be the only one conquered by Jeremy Lin.
The game between the Lakers and the Knicks was underway, and the game between the Magic and the Eagles was over. A bunch of Eagles asked the reporter: "What is Lin's statistic?" The reporter reported that "Lin's statistic was 22+5 at the time." , These guys with no bottom line all screamed, and then they all rushed to watch the live TV broadcast of the game; the Magic and the team reporter said: "I don't know what Jeremy Lin did, but he stopped the whole media room!"
I have a habit of tracing the root of any emotional moment. Why do I see Jeremy Lin’s performance after such a climax?
Most people think that the emotion of orgasm is innate, but in fact it is not, there is no perception without stimulation, and there is no final orgasm without continuous and precise stimulation. Excitement is one thing, climax is another. Obviously, Jeremy Lin touched everyone's G-spots at the time, and there were 7 games in one touch, and he had a good grasp of the priorities.
A yellow man, an ordinary fringe player, averaged 28+8+2 in 7 games, led the team to 7 consecutive victories, and then became the most popular sports star in the United States and even the world. At that time, I was in the Hongqiao bathroom downstairs. The eldest sister has heard Jeremy Lin's name.
How did he do it? What is the story behind his data? Is it the natural beauty of the Big Apple scene, or is it Nate Archibald's soul possession?
I took a closer look at the root cause. Of course, the first reason was because he belonged to an absolute minority in this predominantly black coalition. White people would attract large-scale attention, not to mention the yellow race.
It’s a coincidence that I am also a yellow race. Let's break it down. Jeremy Lin's parents are from Taiwan, so the reason for my orgasm is one more layer.
This is a sense of unity that is deeply buried in the blood. After 9 years of compulsory education, it has been rooted in our hearts and minds.
Blood is thicker than water, and syrup is even better. The natural attraction of Jeremy's skin and blood is the foundation, and more importantly, Jeremy has told a story.
This is an old school Hollywood-style movie about an underdog who suddenly stood up to save the world. Everyone in the world will fall in love with such a story at a glance. Such segments appear repeatedly in various movies. The hero of "Transformers" is a short, poor and ugly man, and the hero of "Forrest Gump" is a mentally retarded man. "When Happiness Knocks on the Door" took an hour to show how miserable Will Smith is. This is what people all over the world love to hear and see. Inspiration can stimulate the nerves of everyone who has hope in life after all-you see, he can also succeed.
And Jeremy Lin won the 7 games of 28+8+2, and the team won 7 games in a row. For a team with 8 wins and 15 losses before, 7 consecutive victories, includingA few games are missing Stoudemire or Anthony or neither of them. Such a team, in such a situation, has won 5 games in a row, and you have to calculate that there are only 66 games this season. The weight of 7 consecutive games can be seen clearly. And more importantly: Before Jeremy Lin, New York was one of the worst solo teams in the league. After Jeremy Lin, this team suddenly became a team, and the spiritual improvement was the biggest. The meaning of-at least from the perspective of self-suggestion.
A necessary plot for inspirational streaming movies: I can’t do it, it’s really nothing in the world or sinister. The sinister environment can reflect the greatness of the little man’s success. Jeremy Lin is 191 (a mid-to-upper height among point guards), weighs 90 kilograms (a good weight among point guards), has a wingspan of 196 (comfortably good), and is 2 meters 50 feet tall. , Bounce 90 cm. The physical test data before entering the NBA showed that Jeremy is a standard NBA-level athlete. According to Morey, he discovered that Jeremy’s athletic ability should be at least worthy of a 15th overall pick during the draft.
But he lost the NBA, and it was a cold bench for a season and a half.
So Jeremy Lin’s previous encounters are only two possibilities:
1. The level of NBA scouts is limited, and they are objectively making mistakes;
2. The level of NBA scouts is still very high, but, in the NBA, it really exists. Discrimination, one is racial discrimination, the other is background discrimination, Harvard University and its Ivy League league are really weak in basketball).
And these two kinds of discrimination are the dangerous environment faced by Jeremy Lin.
He got an opportunity in New York, magnified it, gave back to those who gave it, and saved Spike Lee’s imaginary world.
The dreamlike success of the little people is why Jeremy Lin can bring us a climax. Jeremy Lin’s appearance is a manifestation of the "American Dream", a reflection of the growth of an American hero, and the essence of every little person having a chance to succeed. There is no need to blame the Marvel movie "Captain America" for why it took so much film to depict the thinness and weakness of the captain before, because this is a necessary routine. But Captain America still needs to inject some strange substances into his body, Jeremy Lin has almost no warning.
Jeremy Lin doesn’t have the past of his parents, both of whom died, begging along the street and being bullied by street gangsters, and he did not have the old news that his girlfriend was thrown into jail with guns, robbery, and drug addiction. There is no such thing as a newcomer to the league with broken limbs and cartilage. Experience, he has a happy family, a smooth life, and a good school experience.
The only thing he can empathize with is the "ignored" mentioned above.
So Jeremy Lin’s success is enough to inspire people, not just Chinese. I think Jeremy himself is quite excited, so he will still remember that good time 8 years later, and instead think that he has been at a low point in his subsequent career and has been "waiting".
It seems that this is indeed close to the truth, because Lin's crazy curtain call was due to the season's reimbursement of a knee injury one and a half months later.
Then Jeremy Lin went to the Rockets with a poison contract. After his first season, injuries began to visit the man frequently, including chest muscle strains, knee sprains, back strains, 4 consecutive ankle sprains, and waist strains. Jeremy Lin was also due to this. Lost the starting position.
Then he went to the Nets and went to the Knicks assistant Atkinson during Lin's madness. The latter is now the head coach of the Nets. Judging from all the news at the time, Atkinson was considered a noble man in the NBA. I really appreciate Jeremy. In fact, he also gave Jeremy a starting point guard position. This should be the best opportunity to relive the good old days.
However, after only playing 5 games for the Nets, he strained his hamstring and declared a truce.
Then came back, and repeated three consecutive injuries, with back strain and ankle sprains during the period.
In 6 years, Jeremy Lin has been injured 13 times.
During his first recovery from injury last year, he was still looking forward to the future, as a devout Christian—this is also himOne of the reasons for his popularity in the United States-he never lost his faith:
"I took the time to pray and remind myself not to forget God's promise. His plan is perfect and everything is in his grasp. I Just being in the situation where he wants me to be, his will will be accomplished."
But his God is really strict.
After experiencing repeated injuries, Jeremy Lin’s own patience disappeared:
"Sometimes I feel very excited, sometimes I feel a strong sense of frustration, and sometimes I even want to shout at God to vent my anger."
"Why did I pay so much in training, developed new shooting methods, got the position I wanted, found the right coach and system, but had to waste my peak on recuperating injuries?"
Yes, why?
In the second year of playing for the Nets, Jeremy returned to participate in the team's first regular season. With less than 5 minutes left in the game, the team trailed by 10 points. As the leader who scored 18 points and 4 assists in the previous 25 minutes,
certainly needs to continue to fight for the chance to recover the score.
needs to be faster. Need to hit the basket. Relying on this impact, Jeremy Lin had already made 7 of 7 free throws.
Then he fell to the floor, covered his knees, and shook his head at the team doctor who had caught up. He said, "I'm done." After
"I'm done" five times in a row, Shu Hao wept bitterly. .
And all the things he has experienced in the past 8 years, for him, 2012, which he can never go back to, is the so-called low point of Jeremy Lin.
In his tearful speech, Jeremy Lin asked everyone to do the following:
First, don't give up.
Second, don't compromise.
Third, don't despair.
These three chicken soups are all excellent, but they were all put forward after he counted how he faced those injustices in the past 8 years. From his mouth, the "racial or origin discrimination" and the "why do I In the confusion of trying so hard but failing to score when needed and others are scoring points on the court without my hard work, we have no way to draw these last three conclusions, and then the book writer told us how to do these three. I also can’t transfer it logically, because one of Jeremy Lin’s practices is to "down-to-earth every day", but he has already proved as an empirical evidence that the final result of being down-to-earth every day may not be as good as Jeremy Lin. The important step is what he explained in the 30 minutes after the speech: as long as you believe in God, you can do these three things.
Sorry, I have no intention of offending. I don't dare to believe in such a strict God.
I have no objection to others being inspired by Jeremy Lin’s last 30-minute speech. For one thing, I think that if you are in a trough and difficult situation, grabbing any straw that stretches over should be an irresistible choice.
But I still want to talk about the part of his tears in the first 20 minutes, that part describes his struggle in life, and that part of the confusion that he didn't explain or intend to explain. This part of his speech reminded me more of Rose, another man with a long history of serious injuries. Ross is completely different from Jeremy. Jeremy is a small man who was thrown to the bottom after his success. Rose is the favorite of heaven and was rubbed by fate, but the final outcome seems to be the same. They were both at the beginning of the injury and the previous few times. After recovering from injury, they expressed their "I will come back" state of mind, but after entering middle age and experiencing the vicissitudes of life, they all expressed almost the same emotions: "Forget it, so be it."
This is why The summer has not passed, and when the teams are still adjusting, Jeremy Lin began to announce the reason "I feel like I have been given up by the NBA" and why he rekindled the flames of hope after repeated injuries and immediately fell down. I shed tears. If this is not despair, I don’t know what despair is. If this is not a compromise, I don’t know what a compromise is. If this is not a surrender, I don’t know what a surrender is.
Before this injury, the moment Jeremy landed on one foot, he desperately stretched out a hand forward, as if trying to grab something.
but did not catch anything.
are like all people who struggle for their dreams but fail in the end. Of course, this process is moving enough, but it also has some different enlightening significance for ordinary people's lives.
During Lin's madness, Jeremy Lin himself often likes to quote a sentence from the "Bible": "sufferingproduces character, and character produces hope, and hope does not disappointus."
-adversity forges character, character brings hope, hope never will disappointing.
This is a very meaningful sentence, but it is still worthy of repeated contemplation, because in these steps from adversity to ultimately not disappointing, there will be one wave after another, and a large wave of people will Fall in the first step: adversity forges character.
Because we have seen too many weakness and cowardice forged by adversity, these will never bring hope, at most, people dare not despair. Therefore, all media that tried to dig deeper into Jeremy Lin’s so-called meaning are all digging holes for others with ulterior motives. When your idol finally learns to give up and compromise, you should be awakened. Sometimes that means the beginning of the next life that contains hope.
