Jeremy Lin’s Parents Upset With His New Contract

Gie-Ming and Shirley Lin expected more from their son.

“We didn’t send Jeremy to Harvard so he could spend his life playing games,” the point guard’s mother told OMGG.com. “We were hoping he’d be a lawyer, like his brother.”

While Asian parents are notoriously hard to please, Lin assumed his family would be proud after learning about the $28.8 million contract the Houston Rockets offered him.

“When I signed the offer sheet I called my dad, but he refused to talk,” the 23-year old told us. “He said not to call back until I was the league MVP.”
