    Racism in NBA

    Guessing LOTS of black players not big on hanging with whites in NBA. It’s their sport and culture now as the black race is just better at the game these days. For the white players lucky enough to make it I would bet many are probably nervous fitting in on teams and feel better just keeping to themselves because they feel they don’t matter because they are white.

    most europeans and white guys should just play in europe. dont get the point of sitting on the bench most games and you can play in europe and be a star and get mad minutes.. sometimes its more about the experience than the money

    The NBA needs to start hiring more white players to prove they aren't racist. And I don't mean token cracker jacks who play sudoku at the end of the bench and never shed their warmups. I demand to see more white guys in teams' starting lineups, All-Star game rosters, and signing lucrative sneaker contracts. White Lives Matter!

    I'll add this and it's why I love team sports..

    If you can play and you're cool, your race doesn't matter..

    I played bball in college against some bad mofos.. white and black..

    In high school, played heads up against Mike White (coach at Florida) four times while he was at Jesuit in New Orleans..

    He was a baaaaad a$$ motha fukka on that court...

    Race didn't matter.. As it shouldn't... We went at it....

    He won...

    I would be willing to bet my life the black players in NBA are more racist than whites. They would vote whites out completely if they could. NBA bullshit league now. Kyrie a worthless human. LeBron too. Always starting shit.

    Sports is the one thing that brings race relations together.. I think there is very little racism between players in all sports.. It's a team concept after all, go into battle and win together..

    My sister is married to a black dude. I’m their sons godfather. My brother in law and I are thick as thieves. He’s a staunch Dem and I lean right. Black friends outside of that a couple from high school but we don’t keep in touch much anymore.

    Does not mean they like hanging out with their neighbors lol. I mean maybe their wives like to fit in with the whites, but the black player not so much. Whatever move thread to saloon as Sammy suggests. I just think there needs to be attention paid to all sides of it not just one.

    There is nothing more racist than a black guy on a basketball court. Sure some are cool and just there to play ball but for many it's like once they walk on the court something triggers and all their inhibitions are gone.

    I agree with Eddy Munny.

    The NBA lacks diversity; a trait which we've been instructed to believe is "our greatest strength."

    The current make-up of the NBA doesn't represent our country's demographics.

    It seems to be institutionally systemic.

    Considering that:

    The NFL is mandated to have a certain number of head coaches of a specific ethnicity.

    CEOs are demanded to install a required number of people of a specific ethnicity into their administrative boards.

    AND our possible next VP must be of a certain gender and ethnicity.

    Therefore, I think it only fair that the NBA mandates a certain number of "people of pale color" to participate in its league in order to address this grave injustice, and to reflect our most cherished ideals.
