“You have to do everything right when you don’t look the part, and even then, that might not be enough. There is no room for error. That’s the story of minorities in America right now,' said JLin7

That’s the part I didn’t understand in the moment. I understood everything else that was happening. The reason why I didn’t even blink was because I grew up so exposed to it, and because I grew up so exposed to it I thought, oh, that’s just normal.

What was the craziest thing to happen to you at the height of Linsanity? I remember even reading rumors at the time—and this isn’t in the doc—] Yeah, I’ve never met her before. There are plenty of things that came out… There are so many funny stories, and some that are really creepy. Everything that you can think of happened and everything that you can’t think of happened.

Fans hold up banners in reference to Jeremy Lin #17 of the New York Knicks during the game against the Sacramento Kings on February 15, 2012, at Madison Square Garden in New York City. The Knicks defeated the Kings 100-85.I’m a die-hard Knicks fan, so I’ve been through a lot. But both Mike D’Antoni and Amar’e Stoudemire have come out and said that some of your Knicks teammates resented you at the height of Linsanity.

I mean, I think that’s… that’s the theory, and that’s what everyone says, but I can’t feed the speculation train because I don’t actually know. I know, and I’m saying this truthfully, that there were multiple points of opposition completely outside of Melo within what was going on, and once D’Antoni resigned, there was already opposition within the organization—whether it was the coaching staff that took over or certain members of the front office.

China owns the nba.

JLin7 What Jeremy Lin experienced at the Knicks is institutional racism...Black and likely with the help of the Whites ran him out of town. Anti-Asian hate was simmering below boiling long before the pandemic.

JLin7 ...so we are supposed to cry for a guy who made $64 million during his career....🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

JLin7 The poor minorities of America have it so bad. Could you imagine being a trans minority in 2022 America? Extended government benefits, preferential treatment in hiring decisions, entertainment media fully catered to your lifestyle. Must be a tough gig.

JLin7 Y’all remember when Kenyon Martin called out Jeremy Lin for having locs and then Jeremy Lin responded by saying 'Brother you have Chinese letters as tattoos'

Smile is beating up Bros at the weekend box officeParker Finn's horror flick kicks off Spooky Season by winning the weekend Those Bros ain’t cracking a Smile. The market for a middle-aged men gay romcom is tiny. It has nothing to do with hate or anti this or that, it's simply a narrow draw. There are tons of gay dramas and characters in dramas now and it leans teen and young male. See every CW show or new Netflix or Hulu series. No one expected a rom com, gay or not, to beat a highly anticipated horror movie. Bros is good. I want to see Smile this week.
