Jeremy Lin Lakers News: Kobe Bryant Sees A Lot Of Upside On Linsanity But Not On Offense; Black Mamba To Act As Teacher To Lin

Jeremy Lin becoming a Laker is something that probably no one predicted. But when the deal that sends the 4-year veteran to Hollywood from the Houston Rockets has been finalized, one thing that fans are sure of is that the undrafted guard out of Harvard will learn a lot of things from the veterans of the Los Angeles Lakers, especially Kobe Bryant and Steve Nash. Lin, 26, had his flashes of brilliance when he rose to stardom while with the New York Knicks two years ago. In 2012, he became the first NBA player to score at least 20 points and have seven assists in each of his first five starts. The Taiwanese-American basketball star have something to say when it comes to offense. However, in his new team, Kobe wants him to excel in a different department, defense.
