Now he don’t wanna name names? :stopitslime: All this bytching he been doing.

dude is a bytch.

overachived with Linsanity on a trash Knicks team and then cried his eyes out when the league bushes him.

he knows the second he says who allegedly said that shyt to him, it’s over for him the second he steps back on the court. Not sure what he’s trying to prove by speaking up but he’s been in the league long enough to know what a certain vibe will do in a locker room.

and if people had all that shyt to say to him, why not address it on fukkin time and let everyone else know you’re not gonna stand for that shyt.

Jeremy Lin on facebook said:
I know this will disappoint some of you but I’m not naming or shaming anyone. What good does it do in this situation for someone to be torn down? It doesn’t make my community safer or solve any of our long-term problems with racism.

When I experienced racism in the Ivy League, it was my assistant coach Kenny Blakeney that talked me through it. He shared with me his own experiences as a Black man — stories of racism I couldn’t begin to comprehend. Stories including being called the n-word and having things thrown at him from cars. He drew from his experiences with identity to teach me how to stay strong in mine. He was also the first person to tell me I was an NBA player as a sophomore at Harvard. I thought he was crazy.

The world will have you believe that there isn’t enough justice or opportunities to go around. That we only have time to pay attention to one people group at a time so we all need to fight for that spot. That the people you see hurting other people that look like you on the news represent an entire group of people. But this just isn't true.

Fighting ignorance with ignorance will get us nowhere. Sharing our own pain by painting another group of people with stereotypes is NOT the way.

Instead, if you want to truly help, look for the Asian kid that has no one to speak up for him when he's bullied. Look for the Asian American groups that are experiencing poverty but getting overlooked. Support the Asian American movie or TV show that gives real opportunity to tell different stories. Look for the Asian people that are scared to walk around in their neighborhood and ask how you can help them. Listen to the voices that are teaching us how to be anti-racist towards ALL people. Hear others stories, expand your perspective. I believe this generation can be different. But we will need empathy and solidarity to get us there."

:francis: black ppl will get upset about anti black racism but then play down and make excuses for when we do fukked up things to others, and j-lin and them will say shyt about anti asian attacks but for sure have/ will look the other way when one of their own says/does something slick.

We're all hypocrites and it makes me less optimistic for the future.

I'm sorry, but Asians have enjoyed their proximity to whites at our expense and have said little to nothing about it.

You can sit here and get all aggy but I wonder if you've had the same energy for Asian anti-blackness.

They have a history of having zero problems being used as a racial wedge.

The fact we are still talking about this dude after one fluke week of good ball is amazing. Surprised he’s not taking credit for that Boogie trash that’s coming out
