Agree. This is the first time I've seen a team's supposed fans upset because one player on "their" team could possibly make the all-star team....
Is racial slur against Chinese allowed in this forum? :eek:
I don't think Lin has any difficulty running structured plays. He ran D'Antoni's plays on the fly quite successfully. D'Antoni doesn't have the...
I can't see Les being happy with this for business reasons.
You're completely turning the cause and effect of racism on its head. The majority is the one who try to protect their turf by discriminating...
Players come back after similar surgeries. It just takes a bit more time than 19 games. It took CP3 half a season to come back for a similar...
Rep. Couldn't say it any better.
Here is your original quote: You were saying ethnic pride justifies racism. It's as if saying because Obama enjoys almost unconditional...
And one thing about saying Lin isn't worth his contract: Lin's sponsors pay for the entire Houston's starting lineup's salary this season except...
Very well said!
ITA, especially the part in bold. I'd add that the coaches pay lip service in wanting Lin to have his confidence back. At the same time, they...
Are you trolling? :eek: Lin has nothing to do with the Chinese national team. The only team he could play on internationally will be the USA...

Actually, I think how the Knicks treated him is a perfect backdrop for Linsanity 2.0. The underdog got doubted and cast off...again, despite how...
I think you neglect one difference between those superstars and Lin: The respect/intimidation factor other players have toward superstars. Don't...
Lin has already brought in 4 sponsors in 4 months, East West Bank (the largest Chinese American bank in the U.S.), 2 tire companies and one other...
Yeah, we all call a player's ceiling when he's 24 and plays less than 100 games in the league. All a 24-year-old player can do is going down hill...
I finally got caught up with this thread. I have to give a shout out to torocan, novaman and flyingbeagles. I handed out more reps than just these...
