Jeremy Lin fever -- "Linsanity" -- has spread to the White House, USA Today reported.

President Obama, a huge basketball fan, is avidly following the exploits of Lin, the out-of-nowhere point guard who has now led the New York Knicks to seven straight wins.

However, it is questionable how far President Obama's support for Lin will stretch: Lin's Knicks play in the same conference as the president's beloved Chicago Bulls, and could meet in the playoffs this spring.

據《今日美國》報道，林書豪產生的轟動“林瘋狂”已經波及到了美國白宮。

本身就是狂熱球迷的奧巴馬總統，也正密切關注林書豪這名突然爆發、并已經帶領紐約尼克斯連勝7場的控球后衛。

不過奧巴馬會支持林書豪多久還不得而知，因為尼克斯和奧巴馬心愛的芝加哥公牛隊同屬東部聯盟，兩隊有可能在今春的季后賽中相遇。
