    Dude Lin said after the incident Harden saw Lin differently and they became close. I don’t think Harden has any ill feelings anymore or ever had to be honest.

    I don’t think he meant “you have to confront.” I think he was trying to say that you have to be straight up and confident when it’s appropriate. That doesn’t really translate well from English.

    Same lesson you teach a lot of guys in basketball. If you start passing on open shots, your ass is going straight to the bench. Gotta keep shooting.

    Didn’t Haden have a last minute turnover in game 1 or 2 of the WCF against the Warriors in 2015?

    Clutchfans has a long and rich history of racist towards Asians starting from the Yao days.

    Lol are you with a straight face comparing Harden to Lin? . A league mvp, top 5 player who year in year our carries the Rockets to 50 plus win seasons ? Harden has teams focusing their entire game plan to stoping him night in night out to Lin a solid role player? Lol

    That the poster mentioned something that happens to all kinds of players. Has happened to Harden and even Lebron. No need to bash Lin for it.

    He is American only by citizenship biologically he is Taiwanese/Chinese (I dont wanna go into debate about Taiwan being part of China or not). By your logic why do people call blacks AFRICAN-Americans? They just be called usa citizens then since they are "natively" from the US.
