4:41am, 4 July 2025【Basketball】

36-year-old Jeremy Lin still "ruled" Taiwan Vocational Basketball Team, won the TPBL Taiwan Vocational Basketball League annual MVP + championship MVP, leading the New Taipei Kings to win two consecutive championships, becoming a single season "double MVP". In the seventh game of the championship series, Jeremy Lin hit a key goal in the decisive period many times to save the New North King, leading the team to take the initiative in the game against Kaohsiung Sea Gods. Although Jeremy Lin has less explosive power, he can no longer easily get rid of his opponents in the first step of starting, and his ability to break through the ball with a ball has become ordinary, relying on his rich experience and reading game ability, Jeremy Lin can still play superstar skills and dominance in the Taiwan Professional Basketball Team.

In the G7 match on June 29, Jeremy Lin led the King of New Taipei to defeat the Kaohsiung Sea Gods, winning 4 wins and 3 losses. Jeremy Lin burst into tears at the moment, and the arduous process of winning the championship made him feel emotional.

Je. Lin revealed, "I am 36 years old, and my physical condition is completely different from when I was young. For this reason, I have worked harder to overcome the pain and treat it until one o'clock in the morning every day. I don't have time to accompany my family in the playoffs. Now that I have won the championship, I can finally release all my emotions."

Je. Lin enjoys the joy and process of brothers working hard and winning the championship together.

"Winning the championship with my younger brother is more memorable than winning the NBA championship. The love of my family is something that I could not compare with before NBA teammates. As Lin Shuwei's brother, he sacrificed a lot for me, and I thank him from the bottom of my heart." Jeremy Lin recalled the process of winning the championship with his brothers and playing the sacrifices made by his younger brother Lin Shuwei in the team's tactics and ball rights. Jeremy Lin was very excited.

Jeremy Lin won the TPBL League regular season MVP, averaging 19.2 points, 5.7 rebounds, 5.6 assists, shooting percentage of 43% and three-point shooting percentage of 36%.

The championship series played in seven games. Jeremy Lin averaged 22.4 points, 5.4 rebounds and 6 assists per game, with a shooting percentage of 38%, and a three-point shooting percentage of 35%, leading the Kings to defeat the Sea God 4 wins and 3 losses. Jeremy Lin dominated the critical moment of the championship game and was elected as the MVP of the championship game.

The Kings won the championship in the PLG League of Taiwan’s professional basketball last season, joined the TPBL League this season and won the championship again. Will the second consecutive championship allow the New Taipei Kings to continue to win the championship next season and start the dynasty era? The key factor here lies in Jeremy Lin’s future decision.

Will Jeremy Lin continue to fight for another year, and join forces with his younger brother Lin Shuwei to win another championship and establish a king's dynasty, fans are very concerned about it.

When the media asked "Is there any plan to renew the contract with King and compete with Lin Shuwei for another championship", Jeremy Lin kept it humorously.

"Everyone with brothers knows that my younger brother hates it sometimes." Jeremy Lin's words were reserved and used humor to resolve the scene, without making a positive response.

36-year-old Jeremy Lin is still invincible in Taiwan's professional basketball team and still shows dominance in the game. Even if he does not rely on physical fitness and explosive power, he lacks speed and often can only cut in half and stop the ball and collect the ball. However, Jeremy Lin can still play his ability to dominate the game, play a good ball to change the game at critical moments, and make correct decisions. Everything is not simple.

Taiwan Professional Basketball Team is still the leader of the veterans, which is a very strict test for the development of the league and the youthful team. Young players cannot stop the 36-year-old veteran. Although Jeremy Lin is an NBA-level star, both the Taiwanese Professional Basketball Team and the new generation of players need to reflect more and work harder.

Whether Jeremy Lin will continue to play for one year in the new season depends on his physical condition and family.

Jeol Lin has no problem with his football skills, experience and ability, but he has been tangled with injuries for many years and needs treatment every day in the championship game, which will definitely affect his enthusiasm for playing for another season.

Family is another important consideration. Accompanying family is the happiest thing. Family is definitely a more important measure of whether Jeremy Lin wants to fight for another season and win another championship.

Will the Taiwan Vocational Basketball Team TPBL and PLG cooperate this summer to form a professional basketball team and two leagues, or a combination of two alliances, and two-in-one become one alliance, and will become an important discussion direction in the next 1-2 months.

Jeopardy Lin still feels very good at playing basketball. Jeremy Lin has extraordinary charm in football business and conversation. If Jeremy Lin decides not to play for the new season, the two leagues will have a clear discount on their momentum and attention, whether they are cooperation or integration.
