Curiously he didn’t say she wasn’t “his type”.

I don’t think anyone said they were dating, just that she might have interested in him.

The fact that ESPN would even ask him to clear it up should let you know how popular (or hated) Kim Kardashian really is, because they didn’t ask about Nicki Minaj.

In a rite of passage for any instant celebrity, Knicks guard Jeremy Lin denied rumors that he is dating Kim Kardashian.

“Stuff about me dating Kim Kardashian, I mean, I have no idea where that came from and all these other rumors,” Lin told ESPN’s Rachel Nichols. “I’m not sure I’m her type.”

Lin might be underestimating himself.

Kim’s type is any guy that is going to keep her in the public eye and Lin fits the mode.  If I was Jeremy Lin I would at least test the waters for possible smash and dash.
