Up until about halfway through the 08-09 season it was like having any other
teammate. Then we played BC a few days after they had upset North Carolina,
the number one team in the country at the time. No one thought we had a
chance. The only other time I played BC was my freshman year, and we got
blasted by 30.
We showed up at BC feeling confident as a team, but I think Jeremy was
feeling a little something extra. He torched them from start to finish. It
felt like he stole every pass and hit every jumper. They simply had no
answer for him. The team played well as a whole, but Jeremy was clearly the
reason we won the game. We were chanting his name on the shuttle ride home,
never imagining that a sold out Madison Square Garden would be doing the
same thing a few years later.
He had been the best player on our team for a while, but that game was the
first time he showed that he could have been the best player on an ACC team.
That is kind of amazing for an Ivy League guy.
Overall he is the best teammate you could ask for. Humble, works hard and
plays hard. I can't say I'm that surprised to see what he is doing in the
league. His ability to rise to the occasion is uncanny. He did it in high
school, winning the state championship over the favored Mater Dei by making
big plays in the 4th, he did it in college whenever he played a BCS school (
except for Stanford his sophomore year, but that was a disaster across the
board) and he is now doing it at the highest level possible. He might have a
rough night against Columbia, but against UConn on national TV? 30 points
in a near upset. It is really impressive when someone raises his level of
play every time the pressure mounts.
Also, during the 4th quarter of the Nets game the announcer kept saying that
Jeremy looked exhausted. What he doesn't know is that Jeremy always looks
like that. He would appear to be dead tired after 5 minutes of warm ups. No
one really knew why, but no one really cared because he would always come
out and put in work for 40 minutes.
Update: This answer got so much love I thought I'd throw a few more details
up:
I have a distinct memory of the first real action he saw as a freshman.
He found our big guy for a layup by throwing a no-look pass that I would
never have attempted. His first year was rocky but he showed flashes of
potential.
He became exceptional at elevating for his jump shot, noticing that the
opposing bigs had turned their backs, and firing a pass to our big guy for a
layup. It got to the point where opposing forwards would be more worried
about that pass than getting into rebounding position.
He is not "deceptively" quick like people keep saying. He is just super
quick, straight up. And athleticism is not just about your bench press and
your vertical. He has more than enough lateral quickness, coordination, body
control and instincts to make up for what he might lack in the more
traditional athletic categories.
I was always more of a Madden guy, but from limited experience and word
of mouth I gathered he was excellent at Halo. | e***t

发帖数: 5921 | 5 小学的队友也来爆料了：
I played on the 6th grade basketball team with Jeremy
We both attended The King's Academy in 6th grade, which was roughly 50 kids
in the class. Given the small size, I got to know him fairly well even
though he only stayed at TKA for a year before transferring to a Jr. High
closer to home.
He was exceptionally gifted both academically and in basketball, although it
always seemed like basketball took the back seat.
In basketball, he was by far our best player. In a typical game we would win
29 - 26, with Jeremy scoring 22 of our points. He was indeed exceptionally
quick, but it seemed fleeting. He was average height at the time, but
thinner than the rest of us. Even though he was a standout player I don't
think anyone expected him to do well at the higher levels. It's common to
see smaller, shifty athletes not play as well at the more competitive levels
when contact picks up and size becomes a factor. Adding to that, his
parents were short so it didn't seem like he would add much height. When I
played football against Javhid Best in High School, there was a much
different feeling. Everyone knew he would go pro, to the extent that a few
of my teammates asked for his autograph after the game. Jeremy was a much
different story and I'd say most of us assumed he would start to blend in as
he advanced.
Near the end of the season against our rivals, Valley Christian Dublin, we
were warming up and Jeremy was no where to be found. He was always on time,
and when the game started we weren't really sure what to do. He was our
biggest scorer and not having him there surely meant a loss. As the first
half continued, we kept looking around wondering why he wasn't there, and
started to worry. At the half, sans Jeremy, we were down 16 - 10. As we
wrapped up our halftime huddle, Jeremy sheepishly walked in and our whole
team (plus our fans) erupted. After we all gave him a high five, I remember
someone asked him why he was so late and he softly muttered "violin practice
". The coach threw him in the game and we went on to win by two points!
Academically, he got straight A's and I remember he was in the Spelling Bee
with my brother. They had were both chosen to represent the class after our
grade held a spelling competition.
Later on, I went to the CCS Championship when he was a Senior at Palo Alto
High School. After the win, I went up and talked to him after the game, and
I was shocked how much taller he was than me. I finally realized he was the
real deal. I don't think I've met anyone as humble or as hard working as
Jeremy and I'm really glad he's having such success. If anyone deserves this
, it's him.

我觉得我最喜欢林书豪的是他的性格，虽然很低调，但是在球场上豪情万丈，无论面对
什么对手都永不放弃，我觉得易建联这个情商就差很多，很多时候遇到强手，自己都放
弃了。
