Comedy Central’s The Daily Show has officially entered into the media frenzy surrounding New York Knicks’ guard Jeremy Lin. Host Jon Stewart brought on senior black correspondent Larry Wilmore to discuss how Lin has ‘stolen’ basketball from African-Americans during the month of February, Black History Month. Sportsgrid reports:

Last night, The Daily Show joined the fray (The Colbert Report, of course, already did earlier in the week), and their take was one of the best yet.
Under the guise of discussing Black History month, Daily Show Senior Black Correspondent Larry Wilmore instead lamented the Asian-American takeover of the NBA.
