This is Why he CRIED... How the NBA FAILED Jeremy Lin

You should have brought up at the NBA draft combine, his speed and agility test came in second only behind John Wall. So statements like "he lacks speed" was a load of crap.

I feel so sorry for Jeremy Lin. I noticed it too when i was following the NBA. For 1, Security harrass him by accusing him of not being a NBA player, literally every time he enters the stadium, he had to deal with this crap. 2. He was oppressed throughout his career. When he was with the Warriors, people were so excited to see him play!! It was like as if Micheal Jordan took the floor. When he took the floor, it was a revolution for Asian Americans, oppressed for a long long time at everything, from Hollywood to sports. 3. He had an amazing season with the Knicks but because he was asian, everyone in the NBA were jealous of him and tried to discard him, this includes Carmelo Anthony. 4. He was a 6th man, most of the time, even though he was better than their starters. 5. The NBA basically down right discriminated him since then in the NBA. Not only was he paid less than most players, but he was better in performance than most players too. 6. I did not forget what Kobe did to Jeremy Lin on Kobe's retirement year. That waas downright an asshole move and thats partially why I no longer respect Kobe. I do not care how many points Kobe Scored or how sad his death was because I no longer respect Kobe. This is why I stop watching the NBA. I gone back to NCAA where people are respected more, NBA became a corporate greed and a giant joke. How bad is it? NBA would manipulate games just to make more money like pushing the series to game 7 as much as possible. Bottom line, America talks about diversity and equality? its a Joke. Whenever an Asian man comes up on the road to being awesome, they tried to shut him up. Bruce Lee was murdered by Americans because he was becoming successful.

[@robwebnoid5763]

Yes, The NBA has been around for 70 years. And the other US pro BB organizations before, such as ABA. Every one of those 70+ years, there were benched players who had little or no play during their respective year's playoffs, but when their team won, how come I haven't heard any one whining about those benched who contributed little or no play during their run? When people whine about Lin not deserving the championship because he was mostly benched, why was he singled out? After 70 years this was the first time I had heard a player being ragged on because he wasn't playing a lot. First off, he was brought to the Raptors midseason, perhaps not enough time to know how to play with the new team. Second, he was still just getting over an injury a year earlier. Perhaps not as quick as he used to be & maybe not as confident. Nick Nurse just didn't have enough confidence in him, there wasn't enough time, even though he used him on court during regular season. Again though, he deserves the championship just as much as the guys who were used very little or none at all in the previous 7 decades of NBA championships.

He is average when it comes to athleticism in the NBA. The issue here is that he doesn't compensate for when the calls aren't going his way. Even LeBron nowadays doesn't nearly get enough calls when he gets hacked. Still doesn't let that get in the way of his game. The greats complain but they adjust. Lin was never great.

That reporter said it was accidental, a Freudian racist slip if you were. He profusely apologized, fans angered him, then fired. But Christ-like as Jeremy was & is, he invited the guy to dinner or something, can't recall what. That ex-reporter then searched his soul & he had since become a priest. Kindness is given back to those who ask for forgiveness in humility & well intentions. Evven perhaps if he actually really did make a racist comment but realized later that it was wrong to himself & not to just save face. That forgiveness from Jeremy shows you that he is just as good off the court as well as on.

Like if it was done to you, you should be the most likely not to do the same to someone else. Also, hypocrite means someone who says/professes one thing, but acts/does the opposite.

@@andrechristianto4675 Lou Will is more SG than PG. I like Lou and all, specially his scoring, but sometimes I watch him make some dumb passes.

We have Terance Mann as his replacement.

[@judahogbuehi3196]

Giovanni Manalang tbh sg v pg argument is a diminished point of discussion. Lou will brings the ball up the court just as much as any “pg” you can think of. I mean for all intents and purposes, lebron is a sf/pf. Albeit that doesn’t stop the coaching plan from patting him bring the ball up the court.

[@sunfyre4705]

His defense is terrible. Him and Lou Will in the backcourt would be a buffet line for opposing backcourts. The Lakers don't particularly need someone with his skill set. None of the contending teams need someone with his skill set. If someone takes a flyer on him it would be a low seed or a non-playoff team.

[@brucebanner6807]

I wished Lin wouldn't have given Harden the ball as much as he did I really wanted to see him ball out in Houston

[@skatevidcentral]

Lin had a small interview in the recent documentary "The Ugly Model" about asian men being stereotyped and being marginalized in the west. He states that he feels even after he proved he had game he never got respect from any of the other players and was never taken seriously. It most definitely had to do with his race. I remember when Linsanity happened many players and media pundits trashed him saying he's only getting attention because he's asian, he's a fluke, it was just the D'Antoni system, etc. and his elite athleticism was always downplayed or soft racism would be used like calling him "deceptively quick" or "deceptively athletic" as if asians can't be explosive athletes. Any of his mistakes would be magnified while his good play would be downplayed because confirmation bias had people looking for him to be "exposed". They just couldn't accept that an asian just might be an all-star caliber player. The NBA is a fraternity and Lin was never accepted due to his race combined with the huge attention he was getting causing resentment among some players. Same thing happened to Jimmer Fredette. He was a square white mormon kid getting a ton of attention and focus and his teammates on the Kings resented it. Like Lin he was never truly given a fair shot. The "no defense" thing used against Jimmer to run him out of the league somehow didn't apply to Isaiah Thomas or James Harden.

[@marcusjmalone1996]

DystopiaX don’t bring jimmer in this lmao. He was not good when he entered the big league lmao

[@skatevidcentral]

@@marcusjmalone1996 I watched all his games when he was on the Kings. They never gave him a shot. His teammates didn't like him because of the attention he was getting, Keith Smart didn't like him and constantly benched him for Isaiah Thomas even when he was playing well. Demarcus Cousins demanded Isaiah start over him. He would sometimes drop 13 points in a single quarter only toget benched the rest of the game. He'd get DNP randomly. Teammates wouldn't pass him the ball when he was open, etc. He dropped 30+ when his China team played the Rockets. Clearly he has a spot in this league that's moved toward the 3-point shot.

Yes of course Lin can still be in NBA. Last year there were TWO rumors that Portland was interested in Jeremy, one in January & one after raptor championship, but both times it didn't pan out.. Me, being both a Blazer & Jeremy fan, I wanted him in Portland. Instead, his old controversial Knicks teammate Carmelo get acquired by Blazers. After all those old rumors of Carmelo's envy of Jeremy 8 years ago, I was saddened that Blazers got him instead of Lin, especially after those 2 trade rumors last year gave me some hope. Oh the irony! Because of that, I don't really watch Blazers anymore. In fact I stopped watching Blazers at end of 2016 when they stopped televising on commercial TV. Oh well. Lin is doing well in CBA. I would think NBA would ask him back this next season. But which team? I'd like to see him with Blazers & reunite with Carmelo, haha. Or maybe back with Knicks!

[@robwebnoid5763]

Because the subject matter is about Lin, so I commented on what I preferred. Lin is a veteran, so he would be ready off the bench. Look what happened in 2012 with the Knicks. Still basically a rookie, but was able to gel with the team right away & became an international sensation overnight. Overrated? Why overrated when he got the Knicks back to 0.500 in a month. Has Simons become an overnight world sensation in just 2-5 weeks, with everyone shouting his name? Umm, nope, just typical normal time of evolution for a new player. Am I a Lin fan? Yes of course & I'm touting what I hope could be one possible future. If NBA doesn't want him back, fine, he can continue in CBA. But if NBA wants lin back & he wants to return desperately, he can go to a team & sign at near or at minimum veteran salary & see how it goes. Test the waters. As a vet, he can help with the rookies to develop. Oh & where are the Blazers now? Currently around 11th in WC.
