New York real estate developer offers Jeremy Lin free apartment


Yesterday, we showed you the picture of the couch that Jeremy Lin slept on before the start of "Linsanity".

A New York real estate mogul by the name of Edward Mermelstein has offered Lin a free one-bedroom apartment due to his recent success:
"As a New Yorker, it's very rare that someone like Jeremy Lin comes along to electrify this city," says Mermelstein. "And this humble young man has excited all of NYC—and we love his energy. He's a hard working, passionate young man—and, as a NY Knick and Harvard graduate, I am sure it's not long until he'll have his own place to stay. But, in the meantime, I'd be honored to offer him an apartment for his use."

Metta World Peace wants Jeremy Lin to "get some swag"


As the Lakers fell to defeat against the New York Knicks last Friday night, Lakers forward Metta World Peace had some interesting fashion tips for Knicks guard Jeremy Lin:
He’s the type of guy who should wear leather pants, some nice shoes and change his fashion. You’re Jeremy Lin, for godsakes. You know what I’m saying? You know? Put down that law book, stop reading the New York Times and start reading the Daily News. Newsday, that’s the one. I like that one because there’s always color in that one. What else? Wall Street Journal. Get some swag. You’re in New York City. Put your hat to the back, too. Put your hat on backwards. Come to practice with your pants sagging and just tell them, 'I don’t feel like practicing.' Practice? You know? Practice? And wear an Iverson jersey. You know? Come to practice with a cigar. Lit. 'I’m Jeremy Lin.'
 Metta World Peace never ceases to amaze me.

The Larry Bird/Magic Johnson Broadway musical is ready for showtime


During the 1980's, many thought that NBA legends Larry Bird and Magic Johnson were always putting on a show on the basketball court.

Soon in New York City, there will be a Broadway show based on their lives called, "Magic/Bird":
The story of the NBA Hall of Famer's rivalry and friendship with Larry Bird is coming to Broadway in "Magic/Bird," set to open in April. The two consulted in its production, and Johnson can't wait to watch their story told.

"I guess it's the real Showtime," Johnson said in a phone interview. "When you think about Broadway and you think about Larry and I being on Broadway, it's definitely at its highest level and I don't think either one of us thought that we would be on Broadway. If we was, we'd be there seeing a play and not a play about our lives."
The producers for the play (Tony Ponturo and Fran Kirmser) were also behind the recent Broadway hit about Green Bay Packers head coach, Vince Lombardi.
