Jeremy Lin 'Bromance' With Chandler Parsons Is An Internet Hit; 'Linsanity' Claims He 'Got A Sneak Peek' Of Rockets' Hunk Modeling Gig

The alleged Jeremy Lin-Chandler Parsons "Bromance" has been a running joke in the interwebs. Many NBA bloggers joke about it, and it seems like good clean fun.

Jeremy Lin and Chandler Parsons became teammates when Lin was acquired by the Rockets when he hit free agency in 2011. They have been close friends since then.

The running joke has inspired a Facebook page and dominates the subreddit "Nbawww" which features 'cute' moments from around the league. What could be cuter than a bromance?

An interview in 2012 from the Rockets page in nba.com had some people reading between the lines.

"Q: Jeremy Lin is a guy you really seemed to connect with right away - I know you both have had crazy summers but have you been able to stay in touch with him at all over the last couple months?

CP: Definitely. We've been talking back and forth, especially about living arrangements - we're trying to figure that out right now. We've stayed in touch and talked about all sorts of different things - how he's doing, how I'm doing - and just talking about everything from a team standpoint in terms of how we can get better.

He spent time in Taiwan with David Lee who's one of my real good friends so I was in touch with both of them, but Jeremy is excited to get back here and I'm ready for him to get back here so we can get on the floor together and start building that chemistry."

This year, Parsons spent part of his summer in Taiwan for Jeremy Lin's basketball camp. Parsons is a fashionable guy (which adds more fuel to the gay rumors) and in an interview with Esquire, he says he is "proud to be a pretty boy."

Recently, Parsons became a fashion model, and his first pictures were shown to Jeremy Lin at a locker room interview. Lin casually mentions that "he (Parsons) has given me a 'sneak peek' of what he was going to do.' (The video of that interview here)The statement could be taken out of context, but it still seems like good clean fun, despite numerous insinuations at the comments of their dedicated picture gallery. Be the judge, or just have a good laugh.
