The outbreak of Linsanity that overtook the NBA in February has since been contained: Jeremy Lin now generates regular headlines but isn't quite the all-encompassing media presence he once was. His story is still notable, though, if only because it's unprecedented for an Asian-American player to have an NBA rotation spot in this era. He still matters, especially to his Asian and Asian-American fans.​

Apparently, at least one of those Asian fans decided he loved Lin enough to perform whatever's happening in this clip from foreign TV (likely China or Taiwan, although it's unclear). I can't tell you what this performance means, or why it appears to be a combination of dance, slam poetry, and comedy. However, I do know that the five-judge panel gave it 22 of 25 stars, so clearly something great happened. Just look how excited everyone is!
