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.

据《今日美国》报道，林书豪产生的轰动“林疯狂”已经波及到了美国白宫。

本身就是狂热球迷的奥巴马总统，也正密切关注林书豪这名突然爆发、并已经带领纽约尼克斯连胜7场的控球后卫。

不过奥巴马会支持林书豪多久还不得而知，因为尼克斯和奥巴马心爱的芝加哥公牛队同属东部联盟，两队有可能在今春的季后赛中相遇。
