Honestly, I don't see anything bad being said about Lin from PBF. He never called Lin a scrub. Jeremy Lin is nice, but if he were black, he wouldn't be a worldwide phenomena. If he were Jeremy Johnson and still helped the Knicks get to a .500 record with a 7 game win streak, people would talk, but NOWHERE near the level it's at now. It's apparent how much his race is getting him the attention. I don't know how you can dismiss the fact that people are having get togethers in China towns across North America and Asian publications from China, Japan, etc. (who don't cover North American sports) are flying into NY to ask questions at media scrums after games and practices.
Jeremy Lin is playing it well though. He keeps getting loaded questions from these Asian publications like asking him what he thinks about a significant amount of people from Japan who don't watch basketball watching him now and he replies with him hoping they become Knicks fans and he's not on the court alone. Jeremy Lin is a good kid and a good ball player. He just happens to be Asian. But because of that, he's unintentionally caused a hysteria. Just let that boy cook.
