On this episode, Justin Hong is joined by AAPI and business leader Dennis Yu to talk about his love of basketball, the new Jeremy Lin documentary 38 at the Garden (which was recently released on HBO), and the impact and legacy of Linsanity.
During this episode, Dennis shares his backstory and why basketball was so important to him while he was growing up (2:45), when he first heard of Jeremy Lin and the emotions that he felt watching Jeremy play early in his NBA career (8:55), Jeremy’s incredible transformation as an NBA player (10:50), and the exhilaration and excitement that Asian Americans felt during Linsanity (13:05).
Next, Dennis shares his thoughts on key moments and themes from 38 at the Garden, including a potential paradigm shift within Asian American parents (16:50), how Asian Americans can feel more included and seen by others (22:30), not having to feel ashamed to be Asian American anymore (26:45), why a particular moment right before Jeremy hit a game-winning shot was so meaningful to Asian Americans (30:35), and much more.
