[2015-2016] Jeremy Lin as a Charlotte Hornet

So true...Asian-Americans have so few role models from our own community, so we have to support the ones who do manage to find success. We are evil.

 

Rosa Park? He's more like South Park

 

Yeah, too bad Jeremy didn't do anything for the Houston community. Oh wait...

Jeremy Lin sucks:

Dude on the left was born in San Francisco.

Would never let Mo Williams steal the ball from him

Would kill Lin in a fight.

 

See? You have to reach back to a guy who died in 1973 to find an Asian-American role model of significance.

IMPROVING THE LIVES OF CHILDREN
IN THE US AND CHINA
The Yao Ming Foundation was established in June of 2008


Yao was improving the lives of all children way before Jeremy Lin

but keep that's ok, he's YOUR JACKIE ROBINSON and MARTIN LUTHER KING and NELSON MANDELA of Asian Americans!


Yao Ming > Jeremy Lin in everything

 

Why do you think MLK and Mandela are relevant here? Did they break racial barriers in athletics, too?

 

Also, there were plenty of people who were trying to improve the lives of children before Lin. But if they weren't Asian-American, how could they be Asian-American role models?

 

Whether Mandela was a hero is very debatable though, just saying.

 

Well, this is actually a real role model and a real star with real skills that people respected.

he wouldn't go to twitter if he saw carmelo anthony wearing his number

 

I guess those kids in Houston had to learn that Yao wasn't born in America so he's a bad person and that they should hate immigrants and foreigners even though he works and lives in the community.

They should be inspired instead by Jeremy Lin who is from California and listens to Christian rock bands instead.

 

You have to go back 43 years to find an Asian-American role model of significance, and you find fault in Asian-Americans who are hungry to find a new one?

 

I believe our resident Lin fan here says that Yao Ming can't inspire Asian Americans because he was born in China.


Zboy,

Did Yao Ming inspire Asian Americans?


here's a picture of Yao meeting an Asian American fan who sucks at basketball but was inspired by Yao

LOF are hypocrites

 

Why would anybody consider Yao to be a bad person? At what point did you think I made that assertion?

 

You sound like you work for MSNBC...take a soundbite and twist it to fit your own agenda.

 

Oh Jeremy Lin is the only asian american athlete, I forgot

Spoiler

 

That question was meant for Zboy.

 

I didn't answer your question. I just commented on how you sounded.

 

I don't sound like anything. these are words not sound bites.

this is in your head, like how Jeremy Lin is better at inspiring Asian people than Yao.
