I agree with what you're saying. He told me he said it because the guy was a Lin-fan... I mean you saw the "Chink in the Armor" ESPN headline... With Lin I guess people started thinking they could take it a little farther than what's usually acceptable and anti-asian slurs have really increased in all NBA discussion with the emergence of Lin. Not saying it's right, just an observance.
