@@johnjames6717 dude stfu with that stupid racist bullshit, the GMs and recruiters for the NBA teams are all white, sorry to break it to you, but your white Gods don't see asians as any worth in sports.
@@jft2nd 1. blacks dont really want other races to outshine them on a sport where they are dominant(basketball) Exhibit a: melo to lin Exhibit b: shaq to yao Exhibit c: how players hardly foul Luka 2. I am referring to players not recruiters or GMs. It doesnt matter if asians get drafted. They will be discriminated on the court and locker room 3. I am not white. :) 4. This is just my honest observation. Idgaf about your feelings.
@@johnjames6717 every one of those, besides melo to Lin were examples of competitiveness, what do you expect them to just roll over and let players kill them??? Regardless of if those players were asian, white black, they would still compete, Shaq LOVES Yao, only a select few young players dont like Luka, everyone else, allstar, superstar and rising stars, love and respect his game, dont fucking put an entire race in one single category all because you're butthurt over your own brain washed ideals. Jeremy Lin had 5 chances after he left the Knicks (Houston, LA, Nets, Hawks, New Orleans and Raptors) to try and rekindle the spark he had in New York but sadly his injuries pushed him back. It's not about race it's about not being outplayed regardless of what color the other guy is, I never said you're White I said "your white Gods", implying I know you're asian. Also, noone is in their feelings buddy your observation was just so brain dead stupid i had to put you in your place🤦🏿♂️Yikes
Lin sucks and his career in the NBA lasted that long because he was Asian and had the marketing clout. 7 years collecting paychecks just by playing one month good basketball. If Lin was black or white or Hispanic he would be a nobody. But ok he can play in China where Euroleague role players look like super stars sure.
Interesting question.. would you rather be the biggest star in a country with 1.4 billion people or would you rather be towards the bottom of the pole in a country of 330 million?
best decision for beijing ducks management to get him, ticket n merchandise sold outs instantly, everything will go right for them for this short run. Pretty sure NBA gonna get him back with a good deal. Or else he can stay here and be a superstar rather than being sub in NBA.
@@lokxv--8333 I did some research, Sun Yue who used to play for the Lakers with Kobe was the first one, there might be some other bench players who also got a chip and playing in foreign countries. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun_Yue_(basketball)
don't say black or white just talk basketball, talking like that it seems you been having problems with people that aren't Chinese. basketball its a sport don't make it racial .
In all honesty, what the NBA did to Jeremy Lin is messed up. They intentionally messed up his career even though he clearly is a super star. His average was very high during Linsanity but what happen was NBA tried to shut him out because he was Asian American and I saw it time and time again where when an Asian American or Asian in general shows he can do well, everyone tried to shut him down instead of letting his talent blossom. Also gauging Jeremy Lin talent vs most players in the league, he is way underpaid. I hope everyone in Asia will clearly see how America treats Asians as a whole because its becoming clearer than daylight since this pandemic. You see all the racism gushing out like volcano erruption.
“Superstar”?? Only players in that category based on skill are LeBron, kd, and kawaii. At best he’s a decent 3 point shooter, Ok distributer, and lacks defensive capability. Definitely not deserving of the title of “superstar”
Bee he had star potential during linsanity but not much after. OP is kind of correct where they didn't really let him develop into a star. He had a pretty decent role job in Houston and he actually was a real good bench player in Charlotte. Idk about superstar but he could have been maybe a 1 or 2x all-star or sixth man. But def agree with your statement about superstar. Lol only the fewest get the honors of that title.
@@Indiana-r9b Yeah but not a lot of people were expecting James Harden to be a breakout star that fast. It also wasn't a good system for Lin. Dantoni's system was great for him. lol who knows maybe he could have been MVP like Nash and Harden with more time under Dantoni.
@@ohmyrufiohhh1303 that's why Carmelo called Jeremy Lin offer ridiculous. Way too soon to receive that kind of money, put a lot of pressure on himself and finally failed to live up the expectation.
CBA is too slow for Lin but stop saying he should be in the NBA, it’s getting annoying. Y’all watch his games last season and he couldn’t shoot at all. It’s crazy how he cried saying the NBA gave up on him knowing that it’s all shooting in the NBA and those who can’t shoot that’s in the league are mostly because of defense and Jeremy isn’t no defender. I just can’t believe he said those things even he knows he played like shit. He should’ve just chilled about it.
Jeremy Lin in prime was a top 3 PG, sadly injuries robbed him of his elite athleticism and it's hard to be short in the NBA if you aren't an elite athlete
