GM Mitch Kupchak officially introduced Jeremy Lin to the LA media and revealed they finally got their man after trying three times. Lin a California native, also let reports know he wasn’t planning a sequel to Linsanity in Hollywood.
“I’m not trying to relive that banner season,” Lin said during his introductory news conference with the Lakers on Thursday. “I think that’s been a big weight off my shoulders and I think that’s very important for me as a player. I’m not trying to recreate a ‘Linsanity.’ I’m not trying to be that phenomenon that happened in New York. I think I just want to be myself more than ever.”
Lin will vie for the starting point guard spot with the oft-injured Steve Nash heading into training camp
