LOL i forgot to include the 8-10 mandatory possessions where dwight posts up and spins out of bounds or dribbles the ball off his foot
Because he's a cultural icon whose appeal transcends the typical nba audience? I mean you wouldn't disrespect LeBron James' global brand like that. Lin handled it admirably though- quoting scripture = high road, and by tweeting his forgiveness he's calling out the disrespectful act while staying above it all at the same time.
But it's not just anyone's number. It's the number of a guy he'll be replacing. There are many ways to handle this. One phone call would've suffice. It's like not taking care of your traffic court date. It's simple but becomes a hassle if you don't go. The problem here is that people think our God Morey can and did no wrong and this number thing he is right and justify. I just think Morey made a slight blunder here but still consider him a our almighty God. But of course people on this board overreact when it comes to Lin, feeling the need to chime in and feverishly argue without thinking.
