He is a Harvard graduate playing in the National Basketball Association. He is an Asian-American in a league devoid of them, which makes him doubly anomalous. No team drafted Lin in 2010. Two teams cut him in December, before the Knicks picked him up. 他是NBA赛场上少有的名校哈佛毕业生，他是联盟里少见的亚裔美国人，这样双重特殊身份的林书豪，在2010年NBA新秀大会上落选，2011年12月先后被金州勇士队和休斯敦火箭队裁掉，之后纽约尼克斯队宣布签下他。 His contract, potentially worth nearly $800,000, was not even guaranteed until Tuesday afternoon. So for the past six weeks, Lin, 23, has been sleeping in his brother Josh’s living room, waiting for clarity and career security. 尼克斯与他签下的合同价值约为80万美元，也许在这之前他持有的是非保障合同，但到周二下午6点（球队裁员的截至日子）林书豪的的合同自动转为了保障合同，他将安全的留在尼克斯队。事实上在过去的6周里，23岁的林书豪因为不确定自己是否能够继续留在纽约，一直寄居在哥哥家当沙发客，等待职业生涯中保障合同的出现。 On Saturday night, Lin came off the bench and powered the Knicks to a 99-92 victory over the Nets at Madison Square Garden, scoring a career-best 25 points with 7 assists. Two nights later, he made his first N.B.A. start and produced 28 points and 8 assists in a 99-88 win over the Utah Jazz. |
