But I'll say this - having 2 whites SOLIDLY in our starting 5 is a lot of whites by NBA standards.

Yeah, maybe for a country with a team name like AllBlacks...

You're dodging the point????

The only team with more whites in the starting lineup is Minny... but that's largely David Kahn's team. And we know how weird he is.

Is it that, or is it because Kevin Love and Ricky Rubio can ball? And Nikola Pekovic can beat up anybody in the NBA besides Ron Artpiece?

My point is - why aren't there more teams like that? Is it any coincidence Minny and Utah has 2 of the whitest starting lineup in the league?

So who should start over Hayward? Evans? Harris?
How about Kanter, should we start Gobert, and watch him foul out in like 6 minutes?

I don't really get where you are going with this. The Jazz have two players in their starting lineup who happen to be white. They also have 11 other players who happen to be black. Karl Malone was the face of the franchise for 18 years, and he is pretty black. I think the Jazz like good basketball players who have high character, regardless of skin color.

you forgot the Lakers, they have Chris Kaman, who is not only white, but German. They also have Pau Gasol, Steve Nash and Steve Blake. They must be the most racist mother effers in the history of basketball. Is Kobe even Black? Doesn't he speak Italian? This is all a huge conspiracy.

Pekovic was a lock for being the first second round pick due to his European contract status. Minny had the #31 pick.
 
Guys - if you don't mind - can we please stop derailing the thread? And start talking about important/serious stuff?

TIA.

I am not leaving it at that ********. How do you know, you live a world away, and make your judgement based on the draft position of one player? Plus, Gail Miller specifically asked Dennis Miller to get more players like Derrick Favors. You know who is not like Derrick Favors? Gordon Hayward. He is shorter, thinner, plays less defense, talks more, and is white. She did not ask him to get more players like Hayward. If the Jazz are racist, why would they commit 47 million dollars to a black dude? More goes on in front of your face than you are willing to recognize.
