   Well dumb dumb he was brought up from the D-League probably on a 10 day contract that turned into a year long contract. Here’s the bad news for Knicks fans he probably won’t be there next year because the Knicks won’t have the cap room to sign him for what he’s gonna be worth at the end of the year.

   Dude that’s a rookie salary and to make 5 million right off the back is the #1 pick of the draft type of money. I don’t even think Derrick Rose or Kevin Durant first salary was even 5 mil despite their quick rise in the NBA.
   Now Jeremy Lin came from the D-league, no matter how good someone is coming from the D-league they won’t even get a contract for 1 mil.

   As far as salary, if he continues to play well then he will be making millions of dollars a year when his contract renew, no one saw that talent he had. Second, he will be getting endorsement that he did not see coming and with that he will be making more money this year than 50% of the player with his endorsement

   no team wants him, so he has to settle for the min.
   now that he is well known. he worth about 6-8 millions
   after his contract is over with the Knicks (which is this year)
   teams will offer him better contract once he becomes a free agent.

   No, not racist at all. No one knew who he was at the time. He went undrafted. Warriors and Rockets released him to try and get a better named player. Once his contract is up (after this season) he will get a better one.

   you know what? his contract ends this year and the lakers are able to offer lin that amount of money max contrct at seasons end, but the knicks are able to match,

8. BNB Says

9. Colfax Says

   the most he could make with his economic degree is 80k, now he is making ten times that, 800k,
   nobody will take a $5 million risk with a rookie asain kid from the d-league

10. Jolie Says

    Youre stupid. They gave him that on his contract before he even gets a start. They would assume 800k is enough to sit on the bench all year.

11. Red™ Says

    Because Golden State gave Lin a 2 year deal for the minimum rookie salary. He’ll get paid next season.

12. Bad Αss Says

    If I ever find you, boy, I’m gonna fυck you up big time.

13. Ben Says

    He makes plenty for a rookie

14. Optimus Prime Says

    Thats still alot though. like 85% of people in the U.S. don’t even make close to that in 5 years.

15. Anonymous Says

    Nobody needs that much money. Smh.

16. Peter Says

    I wish I could get 800k a year for sitting on a bench.
