Erik Celino Spoelstra (born November 1, 1970 in Evanston, Illinois) is the head coach of the NBA's Miami Heat. He is the first Asian/Filipino-American head coach in the NBA, as well as the 1st Asian/Filipino American head coach of any pro sports team (apart from the ones based in Asia and the Philippines though presumably).

Nice Info Ryan, I didn't know they liked rice

Filipinos are definately not hispanic. Their anchestors came from China and although had Spanish influences as a colony, they are not hispanic.

[ryanXL977]

hispanic is ethnic not race, black white asian people all can be hispanic.

[daggerkobe]

Hispanic refers to people that speak Spanish as their first language and are descended from Spain.

Filipinos are NOT hispanic.

[ryanXL977]

Are you a bus boy or wannabe gangsta with your white towel

Listen I have to make a comment here because this RyanXL dude is a f'n moron. I actually LIVE in the filipines. Filipinos are mixture of a lot of things. They are ASIAN with a lot of different influences. There is a lot of chinese influence, latin influence, and influence from all sorts of races.

The reason the women are so hot is because of the latin influence or whatever you want to call it. And yes, filipino women can be hot in the bed....but they are NOT slutty. I have been with women from all over the place and filipino women (as a whole) are the BEST women I have ever been around.

And by the way, I am an American white male. I am not biased because I am filipino. I am biased because I have actually seen and lived with these great people.

Now back to what this original thread was about. Filipinos LOVE basketball and they are very good at it. Obviously one of the problems is that you are not going to see many NBA sized filipinos but they know the game.
