    He's not good friends with white guys, he's good friends with Christians.

    Don't worry about Lin and Lamb, I'm sure when they meet , Lin will approach him with open arms as a fellow Christian.

    SMH...Don't know why there are so many topics on race.

    Landry Field is a milk chocolate (father is black). Jared Jeffries, whom he had a better relationship than Novak, is fair complexion black. Need to stop forcing the issue of race on a open forum!

    Fields's father is of African-American heritage, while his mother is white. OK?

    Many LIN's teammates in high school and Harvard is white, but there is black too.

    This is so fake. When Lin first broke out during Linsanity, he was interviewed after the game and the first person he praised in one of those interviews was Jared Jeffries.

    Lin can not choose teammates, but he can choose who his friends are.

    Some people are teammates, but never be friends.
    Some people will be friends for ever no matter where they are such as jared jeffries,Novak,Landry Fields,Tyson Chandler.....

    One day Lin can choose which team he will join, one factor he will consider is how many teammates he likes to be his friends in that team.

    I agree. There is nothing to do with color.

    wow, chill. just a casual observation, i am not a racist and didn't follow lin that much (i.e. to the extent of knowing which players he praised after games)

    Why do you care who he hangs out with? Does anyone criticize you on what race your friends are? This is a silly conversation.

    Why do people make such a big deal about race ?! Rather we should judge people by what they do ... on their merits , not their race or creed.

    Why are there so many threads and posts about the "All-white team" or "Lin and his white buddies."

    These kinds of discussions seriously destroy any legit discussion that can be had and provokes new users to create any thread they want since the bar isn't very high.

    Race doesn't matter!
