A few days ago, sports blogger "Where do I lie on the director_basketball" broke the news on Weibo that: Jeremy Lin is about to leave CBA and switch to the Kaohsiung Steelers Club in Taiwan, China. As soon as this news came out, it immediately sparked heated discussions in Taiwan Province. In order to prove this, the well-known media "TSNA" specially interviewed an insider of the Steelers Club, and the other party gave a "no comment".
Last season, Jeremy Lin played 23 games for Beijing Shougang , averaging 13.4 points, 4.7 assists and 3.6 rebounds per game. After the end of the season, Beijing Shougang gave up his priority renewal rights, which also allowed some teams in Taiwan in China to see the possibility of signing Jeremy Lin.
As early as early this year, Cai Chengru, general manager of Fubon Warriors Club, confirmed to the media that their team wanted to recruit Jeremy Lin and let him and his younger brother Lin Shuwei (has been traded to New Taipei Kings) form a "brother connection". In addition, Jia Fan, the operating director of the T1 league, also publicly revealed that another team is willing to pay a maximum salary contract of NT$1 to sign Jeremy Lin.
In the end, Jeremy Lin changed to the Guangzhou Dragon and Lion Club in the new season, but as the team's third foreign aid, his performance was really disappointing. In the first three rounds of the league, Jeremy Lin averaged 9 minutes per game, scoring 4 points, 0.7 rebounds and 0.3 assists, and he did not make it in yesterday's game with the Fujian Men's Basketball Team.
Judging from Jeremy Lin’s current status, even if he registers as a domestic player, it is difficult to get a chance to play, not to mention that he also occupies a foreign player quota. How to play in Taiwan, China may be a more realistic choice.
At present, the Kaohsiung Steelers Club has responded to the rumors of Jeremy Lin joining. When Jeremy Lin still has a contract, the team made a statement that he would not comment: " Steelers are currently fully preparing for the new season. Jeremy Lin is now a CBA player with a contract. Today's report is an online revelation, and the team will not comment."
