The Linsanity experiment is going to be one-and-done as the Los Angeles Lakers is expected to pursue free agents Rajon Rondo or Goran Dragic. Meanwhile, Jeremy Lin shared his favorite eating spots in the City of Angels.

Rajon Rondo of the Dallas Mavericks and Goran Dragic of the Miami Heat, and to a lesser extent Brandon Knight of the Phoenix Suns, were traded to their current teams before the Feb. 19 deadline. But they could be on the move again when they become unrestricted free agents on July 1, just like Jeremy Lin will be.

"For the 26-year-old guard who rocketed to fame with the New York Knicks during a 35-game stretch in 2011-12, this current campaign was supposed to be about solidifying his identity and worth once and for all," said Bleacher Report.

"But instead, the picture presented in Los Angeles has been one of uncertainty-an enigma who has gone from starter to role player and from lost to found at various points with Lakers coach Byron Scott," it added.

In an interview, Jeremy Lin said that ever since Linsanity, his name has been very polarizing in the media.

"There's always been doubt around me, around my name, ever since I stepped foot in the NBA. That's literally all I've had, is just a huge cloud of uncertainty, doubt and in a lot of ways maybe polarizing criticism around me, for whatever reasons. It's part of the journey," he said.

Meanwhile, in a blog post, Jeremy Lin shared a childhood favorite, Roscoe's Chicken and Waffles, and the "best restaurant in Los Angeles," the Bestia, among the restaurants that he frequents.

There is also Tender Greens for the health-conscious and Ike's Place Sandwiches where fans can sample Linsanity's own sandwich with a "secret ingredient."

But when Jeremy Lin wants to get out of all the Linsanity hype and the troubles of the Los Angeles Lakers, he goes fishing at the Redondo Beach Pier. "One of my favorite things to do to unwind after a busy day is to go fishing or crabbing late at night here. Although I haven't been that successful at catching much, it's always peaceful to chill on the pier," he wrote.

"And watch my brother haul in all the fish while I continuously lose mine."
