[Culture Map] Jeremy Lin unchained: NBA discrimination could finally end with recent run

So.. what are you disagreeing with?

 

Weird that the author chose the past six games to focus on without noticing an even bigger change:

Greg Smith has replaced DMO at starting PF those last six games!

 

There is a Turkish commuity. But they all don't own as many pcs and mobile computing devices or come with a network of like the great wall of LOFs.

 

LOL...now I know why you got so uptight when I talked about liking Stiesma's game!!

 

Response

Not as many in the Turkish community, I am sure. I wonder how popular Omer is in the Turkish communities in the US? Is there a well-known Turkish athlete playing in the US? I don't even know if Omer is a green card holder or a US citizen.

 

Response

What country is Garcia from?

 

Why? Cuz I feel Asik's a way better player?

 

WTH!? NBA discrimination............ :grin:

Is there a bigger cultural melting pot right now than the NBA?

 

More like I wasn't aware how passionately you liked him!

 

Oh yeah, of course it's obvious discrimination.
According to a poster here, Asik comes from the Asian side of Turkey, and even if they do not want to be associated with Asia, it's too bad.

So Asik is the other Asian who gets benched in the 4th. A pattern? Hmmm....
:grin:

 

Nah I'm not really that passionate of a fan, never get too up, never get too down. Just using Asik to show that there's no discrimination against Lin since he's been in the same situation.

 

I don't understand why people even need to discuss this so much. Lin has been playing fine. You can't pin too many loses and wins on one player, even at the PG position. Lin isn't the only reason we win or lose.

People need to understand that. There are 9 other guys who contribute to that on Lin's side, and the team you are playing against on the other side.

 

Dominican Republic I think

 

Pre-2012ers, you don't have to worry the LOFs plaguing this forum much longer. We will have to split our time to be GOF(Guan Only Fan).

 

Unfortunately, he is the chief editor of the site! Seems like he created the site just like Clutch!

 

Linsanity made the world pay attention to Jeremy and the fact that he could make it. Some of his fans are still oversensitive about the potential mistreatment he's getting.

If Jeremy was miserable as a Rocket, I could understand. Some people can't be patient and enjoy his growth and hopefully the team's as well.

 

At least his model girlfriend is an US citizen!:grin:

 

You noticed that too, huh? Fans are trying to discredit the article by telling us that Lin did NOTHING. How about people just say that it's a bad article (rational fans know basketball is a team game, every guy on the court contributes, in some role to W/L's) instead of trying to discredit Lin's contributions to helping the team win.

 

With Harden and Parsons injured on and off, Lin has been pretty clutch lately, which helped contribute to the Rockets winning. Lin fans enjoy seeing Lin play well and thy enjoy the increased trust from McHale. The haters will just keep hating.
