On an NBA basketball court, Jeremy Lin is fairly easy to identify. In more casual circumstances, however, things can get murky pretty fast.

Slap a fake beard on him, add some long hair and a little bit of a gut, and even a fan wearing Lin's jersey won't be able to recognize him. That's the premise of this latest spot from adidas, where Lin goes undercover as a trainer to mess with folks just trying to get a workout in as part of their daily routine.

It isn't quite as good as scaring the hell out of people at a wax museum, but it's a solid reminder that for some professional athletes, it isn't all that difficult to go unnoticed.
