I think this is getting a bit out of control.
While the US Cover has Kim Jong Un, but in Asia, Lin gets the cover which is incredible considering no one knew Lin two weeks ago.
Kobe has never been on any cover of TIME, neither has Derek Jeter or many other star athletes.
Jeremy Lin is still just a second year player in the NBA, I hope he can handle all of this, because they build you up to just to bring you down.
Enjoy the ride Jeremy, but try not to get caught up in the hype.
