Rich Cho
Aight, I’ve been called on neglecting to post this: Paul Allen just hired Rich Cho as general manager of the Portland Trailblazers. He is the first full Asian general manager in NBA history, and he’s a native from the Pacific Northwest. It’s cool because, well, he’s the man in charge. He’s also got the Asian street cred:
With a law degree and also a background in engineering, Cho has gained a reputation for his expertise with the salary cap and the collective bargaining agreement. He also has scouting experience.
In other NBA news, Jeremy Lin, the former Harvard star, just signed a contract with his home team the Golden State Warriors.
Jeremy Lin
From what I’ve heard, he’s a great player who has had some ups and downs with respect to the draft, but now it’s all good. He’s breaking stereotypes for both Asian Americans and Ivy Leaguers. According to the Boston Herald, he’ll be the fourth Asian American in the NBA.
