I hate being called Jeremy Lin every time I come out to the courts

[nathanjizzle]

last summer, i was hoopin alot. one thing that annoyed me was everytime i came out to the courts people would call me jeremy lin and thought it was so hilarious. i mean i heard it about 50 times before no lie so it became very annoying. Just because im asian its funny to call me jeremy lin? think about it like this, if your black and i call you lebron james is that suppose to be funny?

so some advice for you ish hoopers, if you see an asian kid on the court and you make a jeremy lin joke, you look really salty to him because its barely funny and hes heard it 100 times before.

what players have you been called before while playing basketball? ive been called yao, kobe, rose, artest, even manny pacquiao

At least they call you someone you share your asian heritage with.

In Sweden everyone just played but I get called "nikka" while playing pick up games at A&M.. Some fool called me "polar bear" after I dunked on his ass a la;

"Oh my "nikka" polar bear from Switzerland"..

[Chapallaz]

In Canada they mostly called me Pau, sometimes Dirk, Kukoc, McHale and Bargnani. Bizarrely, I was once called Tayshaun Prince and twice Melo, even though I neither look nor really play like them.

[L.A. Jazz]

Toni Polster or Gerd M

[MJ(Mean John)]

Got called Kobe for jacking up too many shot....

Got called Melo for jacking up too many shots.....

Amazingly, not been called jeremy lin yet....although I had enough people telling me how well he is playing and giving him props...

[FrenchDude]

When I lived in Asia, people called me Allen Iverson every time I played ball. Works both way, cry me a river..

[CeltsGarlic]

Reduce your turnovers...

[NumberSix]

Just step up to them and say "My name is not Jeremy Lin. It's Nate Jizz"

When I was younguer people used to call me Kobe, now Tony Parker.

[fatboy11]

Stop being Asian.

I don't complain about being called Matt Maloney when I come out to the courts.

Shutup Lin and go get me a Gatorade.

i aint going to lie.

i dont hoop like that around here.

I just try to shoot around and 5 ****** would come out of nowhere and be like "aight let go! 3 on 3! who got first?"

one of my homies showed me this place at Brookfield that i go to.

[Rake2204]

I don't complain about being called Matt Maloney when I come out to the courts.That's outstanding if you're being honest. That might be the best reference I've heard on a 2012 streetball court, next to a chubby dude at my courts getting the Clarence Weatherspoon label last year.

[Fudge]

I got called LeBron a few times everytime I travelled.

[lakerspng]

used to get called white jordan. cause I had a great fade way and a really quick first step/ drive to the rim.

If you show you care and remain salty people are gonna exploit that weakness. Stay Linning...don't care.

[Point Blank]

I shoot similar to Joe Johnson so I get that a lot.

[NYK_Stan]

Im the only white guy at my court so...
When my jumper is on, i get called novak.

When i play good defense or run the floor well, i get called kirilenko.

Once i blew by some guys, took it to the rim, and dropped a dime and got called nash. Doesnt happen much cuz i play mostly off the ball tho... :(

[clipps]

I always get called Dirk and Peja for being a tall white guy with a lethal jumper.

[L3B120N J4M35]

I get Mark Price cause I'm white and shoot like him.
