What an insightful response.
My point is that if he did sit out, then there'd have been a deluge of haters who would've called him out for being a wuss, coward, etc. No matter...
Yes, Lin proved that he is at least an average starting PG this season. Given his rate of improvement and age, it's very likely that he'll end...
If Lin was important enough to be a reason for the team losing in the playoffs, then he was important enough to be a reason for the team...
When an Asian player is a rare sight in the league, and that Asian player is a direct repudiation of many of the harmful stereotypes that Asians...
The thing is this: if Lin was so important to the Rockets that his failure to play his best greatly diminished their chances at beating the...
You do realize that Lin was greatly criticized last year for NOT fighting through his injury and playing for the Knicks against the Heat? His...
By those definitions, I think post-feminist women are way more "feminine" than pre-feminist women. Women who have free personalities and don't...
I wasn't saying that you were unreasonable. My regrets if it came off that way. I was saying that given how some people have essentially tried...

Really, the last thing I want to say about this... If by "feminine", you mean potentially more easily impressed by white privilege because...
I really hope the Rockets learn that they can't lean so much on Harden and make/let him do EVERYTHING. I think his 2nd half of the season was...
If non-Asian guys have odd "preferences" for Asian women, it certainly doesn't harm them if the media drags Asian guys through the mud. I...
So just because certain demographics have been discriminated more against than Asian Americans have, we have no right to talk about the blatantly...
Lack of positive Asian representation in the media IS a serious problem for many Asian Americans, especially since American society places great...
It wasn't a trade. Both teams got what they were looking for, kind of like with the Harden trade. Given the Knicks' system, I don't think they...
