在NBA的赛场上，一个黄皮肤的球员赚足了掌声和欢呼，但是他的奋斗历程却不为人知。在黑人球员当道的美国篮球圈，黄皮肤球员的生存空间非常狭窄，正因为如此，他多次与NBA的大门失之交臂，但凭借着不懈的努力和坚定的信念，他终于实现了心中的梦想。
他就是林书豪。今年22岁的林书豪先后被勇士队和火箭队裁掉，目前效力于纽约尼克斯队。2012年2月，在两大主力球员缺席的情况下，这个曾不被看好的华裔小子仅带领球队疯狂地取得连胜。仅仅一周的时间，这个手握球队非保障性合同的无名小卒征服了球迷，征服了世界。那么，究竟在他身上有着怎样的故事呢？本期的《滋味人生》，就让我们一起来了解林书豪的NBA之路。
Reporter: On October 29th, 2010, Jeremy Lin became the first Chinese-American to play in a regular season NBA game. The second son of Taiwanese immigrants Ji Ming and Shirley Lin, Jeremy learned how to play basketball from his father, who was a big NBA fan. But not everyone in the family thought it was something he should pursue.
Jeremy: No one else really played basketball besides my family, and so it was kinda taboo for a little bit, and, you know, with my grand…grandma, you know, she was kinda…always trying to influence me to not play, and…and then, you know, once we realized, you know, this…this is something I love doing and…and…and, you know, I can…you know, I’m having fun doing it, and I can go play at the next level, then, you know then peop…more people started to support it.
Reporter: He continued to improve and in 2006 led Palo Alto High to a 32-1 record and an upset of nationally-ranked Mater Dei in the Division Two State Championship Game. Despite being named“Player of the Year” by virtually
every California publication,
he did not receive a single
scholarship offer.
Jeremy: I think a lot of it was
me being underdeveloped
physically. At that time I was,
you know, a hundred seventy
pounds, and, you know, I
was just very raw, and then,
you know, me being Asian
American; I don’t know how
much that had to do with it,
but I’m sure it had something
to do with it.
Reporter: While Harvard
does not provide athletic
scholarships, Jeremy was offered a chance to play there and accepted. He excelled on the 1)court despite having to put up with 2)racist 3)taunts, like being told to “Go back to China” and being called a “4)Chink”.
Jeremy: You know that was just something that got under my skin in the very beginning. It was really frustrating, but I just had to learn how to deal with it as time went by and for me to be able to be more mentally strong and not, you know, get distracted or angered so easily.
记者：2010年10月29日，林书豪成为首位进入NBA常规赛的美籍华人球员。他是台湾移民林继明和吴信信的次子，父亲是NBA的超级球迷，（从小）带他练球，但并非所有的家人都支持他的篮球事业。
林书豪：我的家人并不会打篮球，所以有那么点前途不明。我的祖母，她有点儿……总是试图改变我打篮球的想法，到后来，我们意识到，这……这是我喜欢做的，还有……还有你知道的，我可以……打篮球是我的兴趣所在，我可以打得更好，接着大家……（家里）更多的人开始支持我（打篮球）。记者：他的球技不断进步，2006年带领帕罗奥多高中（校队）在
北加州二区联赛中取得32胜1负的成绩，并击败全美冠军美德高中（夺冠）。尽管被加州媒体评为“年度球员”，但他并没有因此获得奖学金。
林书豪：对此我想了很多，（可能因为）我身体条件不突出。那时我才170磅（约77公斤），也没有系统训练过，还有就是，你知道的，我是亚裔美国人，我不知道这之间有多大的联系，但是我相信肯定是有联系的。记者：虽然哈佛大学并没有给他提供运动员奖学金，但林书豪还是被录取并得到进入校队的机会。他在球场上展现出过人实力，尽管要忍受种族嘲笑，像是（别人）对他说“滚回中国去吧”，还被称为“中国佬”。
林书豪：一开始我感到非常生气。这让人很沮丧，但是随着时间的流逝，我必须得学会面对，让自己内心强大，不会因此分心或那么容易被激怒。
Reporter: Jeremy was twice named “First Team [1]All-Ivy League”. As the team’s leading 5)scorer during his senior season, he led Harvard to its best record ever. Still, he wasn’t taken in the 2010 NBA 6)Draft. Dallas did sign Jeremy to its Summer League team, and he made the most of his opportunity when he 7)outplayed the overall number one pick, John Wall. His performance against Wall got him contract offers from the Mavericks and Lakers, but he chose to sign with his home-town team, the Golden State Warriors. So far, the racist remarks he heard in college have not followed him to the NBA. Jeremy: That’s what I was really shocked about is I don’t think I heard one Asian taunt from an opposing fan or player all year actually, so I think a lot of other players in the NBA actually went out of their way to say “congratulations” and different things like that, and so…I think the NBA, you know, is kinda like a…a big family. I think all the guys are friends with each other, and, for the most part, and
people respect what other people
are doing, and so, that was really
inspiring and really, you know, a
nice change of pace for me.
Reporter: Jeremy’s faith was
tested when he was sent down
to the Warrior’s developmental
league team in Reno.
Jeremy: Being there was
another blessing in disguise, you
know. I remember when I first got
sent down, I felt like, you know,
the world had ended. I was, like,
“No, don’t do that. Don’t send me
down there”, and …. But, looking
back it was absolutely necessary.
Reporter: Playing with a renewed confidence, Jeremy finished the season strong with the Warriors. At 6-3, 200 pounds, he has the size to play point guard in the NBA. In just one season Jeremy has been able to break some old stereotypes about Asian-Americans being unable to play sports at the professional level. But he knows there will always be doubters.
Jeremy: You know, that’s a stereotype that I’m gonna have to fight for the rest of my life.
记者：林书豪曾两次入选“常春藤联盟第一阵容”。作为球队的主要得分手，在大四赛季，他带领哈佛大学球队取得前所未有的成绩。但是在2010年，林书豪在NBA选秀中落选。达拉斯小牛队签下林书豪出征夏季联赛，这次他充分把握住了机会，抢尽NBA选秀新科状元约翰·沃尔的风头。林书豪在此次与沃尔对抗中表现突出，小牛队和湖人队纷纷向他抛来合同，但他最终选择了家乡的金州勇士队。到现在，他在大学所听到的关于种族的评论并没有随着他进入NBA。林书豪：让我感到震惊的是，一整年我都没有听过一个对手球队的球迷或球员说过一句嘲笑我亚洲血统的话，NBA的其他球员会对你表示祝贺或是别的什么，所以……我觉
得NBA就像是一个……一个大家庭，大家都是朋友，人们通常会尊重他人的做法，因此这很令人振奋，真的，你知道，对我来说是一个很好的转变。记者：这一信念使林书豪在被下放到勇士队在雷诺的发展联盟球队时备受其益。
林书豪：起初我并没有意识到这是一件好事。我记得刚下放到那里时，我觉得，你知道的，好像世界末日一样，像是说“不，别这么做。别把我下放到那”，然后……但是，现在回想起来，这确实是很有必要的。记者：带着重建的自信，林书豪结束了为勇士队效力的赛季，身体更为强壮。身高6英尺3英寸（191公分），体重200磅（约90.7公斤），他具备了NBA控卫的身体条件。仅在一个赛季中，林书豪就打破了人们对于亚裔美国人无法完成职业级别的体育赛事的成见，但他知道还是会有质疑的声音。
林书豪：我会用我一生的时间去改变这种成见。

在短短数周内，林书豪的名字成为全球热门，也因此衍生了一些词：Linsanity、Lincredible、Linderella……他还因此登上了《时代周刊》亚洲版的封面，下面我们来看看IBTimes上关于此事的报道。
Linsanity to Grace the Cover of Time Magazine
“林疯狂”登上《时代周刊》封面From IBTimes
(Feb. 16, 2012) Jeremy Lin & Linsanity will grace[荣耀] the cover of Time magazine next week in yet another major ego boost for the breakout New York Knicks star.
The Knicks’ new point guard, who has only started in six games so far, has already earned praise from President Barack Obama, become the hottest sports star on earth, and inspired the entire Asian-American community.
And now Time magazine is running a cover story on Jeremy Lin, the Taiwanese-American basketball sensation[引起轰动的人]. The cover of the Feb. 27 edition of Time, which was released Thursday, will bear a photo of him going for an underhand lay-up, overlaid with the word “LINSANITY!” in all caps, with a subheadline reading “Jeremy Lin lights up the NBA.”
It also includes a note that says “Since 1976 no one has scored more points in his first four starts than Jeremy Lin. That’s more than Jordan. More than Lebron.”
The article, titled “Linsanity!” and written by Sean Gregory, will be accompanied by a lengthy article about Jeremy Lin and Linsanity. A preview of the story’s text is currently posted at Time.com, reading as follows:
“To measure the immediate sociological impact of Jeremy Lin—the electric New York Knicks point guard who has jolted the NBA—start on the weekend-warrior basketball floor. In a gym near New York City’s Chinatown two days after Lin torched the Los Angeles Lakers for 38 points and a day after the Knicks won their fifth consecutive game with Lin running the show, a group of African-American players prepped for a rec-league game. Most of the competition was Asian American. The message: Ditch the stereotypes of the Asian dudes as pesky players who nevertheless won’t be hard to beat.”
