That was a blood bath. The NBA is the only thing keeping me from cancelling my cable right now.
Durant is so good. This shot to seal it had me shaking my head.

Can somebody hypothesize to me why so many European and South American white guys can play yet so few American white guys can?

Nowitzki, Vazquez, Okur, Asik, Turkoglu, Gasol brothers, Barea, Fernandez, Vujacic, Stojakavic, Pachulia, Nash (yes, I'm counting him), Kirilenko, Kleiza, Ilgauskas, Gallinari,thrill wrote:It's really not.lukethedrifter wrote:It's a little accurate.thrill wrote:That's not accurate.lukethedrifter wrote:Can somebody hypothesize to me why so many European and South American white guys can play yet so few American white guys can?
Maybe not literally true but look at he number of kids playing basketball in, say, Serbia compared to the number of white kids who grow up playing basketball in the US. They are like Samoa is to football and maybe Venezuela to baseball.

Since you're the 10,000th winner of the Post-a-dumb-stereotype message, I'll say what I guess you want to hear: It's because all the skilled white American college players are becoming lawyers, and all the skilled black American players are becoming drug dealers or NBA players.
Hooray, you've noticed that a larger ratio of skilled black young athletes pursue it as a career vs skilled young white athletes. There's lots of books about race relations in America, cultural, societal, and economical differences between ethnic cultures, that will shed light on this fascinating disparity.

Actually, I find it pretty offensive that you have taken it where you did. Seriously. What a completely [expletive] up response.
