David Lee is severely underrated. It took him a while to even get a "third team" mention even though he averages 18 and 10 for a winning team.

I like this.

[TMT]

No Ginobili or Bellinelli? :no:

[knickballer]

No Ginobili or Bellinelli? :no:

Inb4 Ginobolli is not "white" he's "Hispanic"
Inb4 Bellinelli is not "white" he's "Italian"


Usually theres a handful of posters on these race threads that claim player X isn't "white" because he's from South America or that he's Spanish....


Also Jonas V, Asik, Ak47, Reddick to the lists as well.

[tomtucker]

No Ginobili or Bellinelli? :no:

nah, they ain

[Bandito]

JJ Barea for best PG.

Barea >>>Calderon and Rubio combined...

[Bandito]

Inb4 Ginobolli is not "white" he's "Hispanic"
Inb4 Bellinelli is not "white" he's "Italian"

I been told I am not white but 'light skinned'. Like what the hell does that mean? :facepalm:

[christian1923]

Blake griffin

[Dro]

Blake griffin
He's not white to me, lol....I would say Scola but he's Brazilian...But he looks like a white dude on the court so I will say him...

[TonyD]

What's with everyone overlooking Ryan Anderson?

[sundizz]

LOL at 3rd team All-NBA David Lee being 3rd team All-White NBA. Just nonsense.

First team if you are trying to win:

Goran Dragic
Gordon Hayward
Chandler Parsons
Kevin Love
Marc Gasol
6th man: David Lee
7th man: Andrew Bogut
8th man: Kyle Korver
9th man: Pekovic
10th man: Rubio/Calderon if you want to consider them white.

That team would win the chip. Ain't nobody messing with the Love, Gasol, Bogut and Pekovic. Straight vikings word to Eric the Red.

[clipse026]

Nobody mentioned Ryan Anderson yet? :confusedshrug:

edit: 2 above me, whoops.

[TonyMontana]

You can be white while being hispanic. Just like there are black hispanics. Not all hispanics are those mestizo looking ****s that is the sterotype. You can tell by the obvious features. Ginobili for example is clearly of a Italian descendants.. Italy is in Europe(white).

Kevin Love is the best white player, followed by Dirk. Both are elite superstars in todays league. heres how i'd make my teams.

1st Team
C-Marc Gasol
F- Kevin Love
F- Chandler Parsons
G-Ginobili(playing better this year after awful playoffs)
G-Goran Dragic

2nd Team
C- Omar Asik
F-Dirk Nowitzki
F- Danillo Gallinari
G- JJ Redick
G- Jose Calderon

3rd Team
C- Birdman
F- Ryan Anderson
F- Kyle Korver
G- Marco Belinelli
G- Ricky Rubio

I'd also like to mention that David Lee sucks. You fcukers like making fun of Kevin Love, but that guy right there is the definition of empty stats. It's no surprise GSW is back to being mediocre now that he's playing a big role on the team. Bad defender, undersized, can't shoot. Sucks.

[Marchesk]

Are white people not the lightest skinned of all?

Nobody's actually white, unless they're albino. And black people can be albino, except nobody is actually black either. Or red or yellow.

[knickballer]

Thank's for clarifying my post....

[Brook(lyn)Lopez]

White Hispanics are not white by American standards, so Rubio, Calderon, Barea, ect. don't fall under this category since the NBA an American League.
That includes Jordan Famar too, because in American, Jewish = not white.

[The Iron Fist]

Clay Thompson and Steph Curry.

[midatlantic09]

Hayward, Parsons, Bogut, Varejao, Lopez, Lopez...

not white...

[tomtucker]

Clay Thompson and Steph Curry.

indeed......and not white by any standards i might add

[clipse026]

Ryan Anderson 3rd team :oldlol:

[Chuckbrook]

Some of these ****** yall named aint white

Rubio and Calderon are Spanish from the actual country of Spain... They're as European as you can get :facepalm

Even Barea is white as well since he's clearly descendant from European

Being European or having descendant from Europeans = "white"

You wouldn't say a guy like Steve Nash isn't white since he's South African/Canadian now would you?

Of course a guy like giannis antetokounmpo wouldn't be considered white despite being from Greece since he's obviously has roots from Africa.

And Ashkenazi Jews are considered white in America as well. Farmar is half black btw

[pauk]

Larry Bird still.

[Bandito]

Are white people not the lightest skinned of all?
Exactly my point:facepalm

And it was this pale white guy that told me that too...fvcking Casper...:lol



Larry Bird still.he's not playing anymore though...

[The Iron Fist]

Doesn't matter, I'm painting a picture of how illogical racial classifications in the United States are.
If you don't have blond hair and blue eyes and very light skin, and have a Spanish surname, you pretty much aren't white to most Americans.
It used to be that way with Italians too, and some don't consider them white because the Sicilians and Southern Italians have small percentage of African blood from thousands of years of wars and invasion by North African nations.
Plus Rubio and Calderon are clearly from the South of Spain.
They likely have trace roots of North African heritage dating back to the days of Andalusia.
If you have one drop of 'non white blood', then you aren't white by American standards.
That is the whole idea of the one drop rule which dominated Racial attitudes in the United States for years.

[cuad]

Blake Griffin. Steph Curry.

[pauk]

he's not playing anymore though...

I know... still believe he could be the best :D

[tgan3]

1st team
Marc Gasol
Kevin Love

2nd team
Andrew Bogut
Pau Gasol
Chandler Parsons
J.J. Redick
Ricky Rubio

3rd team
Nikola Vucevic
David Lee
Danilo Gallinari
Kyle Korver
Jose Calderon

Question is, if this was a real team, can they win a ring? Inside presence is very dominant with all that big man.

lol, only on ISH where we have historians, basketball experts and anthropologists in one. :applause: :applause:

BTW, Spaniards are a bit tanner since they have more of a Mediterranean climate(along with other Southern European nations like Italy, Greece, etc).

[kNicKz]

David Lee is severely underrated. It took him a while to even get a "third team" mention even though he averages 18 and 10 for a winning team.

He plays zero defense.

looks white to me.

Nope. Might be part white, but one drop rule classifies him as black.

you can tell by his nappy/pube like hair.

[jamal99]

Pekovic averages 17.5 and 9, but barely got mentioned even in posts that have 3 teams...

[DStebb716]

My teams:

1st:
Goran Dragic
Gordon Hayward
Chandler Parsons
Kevin Love
Marc Gasol

2nd:
Ricky Rubio
Manu Ginobili (he's white, not Hispanic like many will claim)
Danilo Gallinari
Dirk Nowitzki
Nikola Pekovic

[tenzan]

Spencer Hawes?

Averaging 15 PPG/9 RPG/3.2 AST/1.5 BLK on 50% FG

[tomtucker]

Rubio and Calderon are Spanish from the actual country of Spain... They're as European as you can get :facepalm

Even Barea is white as well since he's clearly descendant from European

Bw


they are hispanic........not caucasian white, the good/real kinda white
:oldlol:

[robert de niro]

damn some of you are dense :lol spaniards are white, italians and greeks are white, they have the same dna haplogroups that are found all over europe. the dark phentoypes of hair and eyes do not denote race. In fact, iberians and basques are closely related to the british and especially to the irish. Even in England there is in general far more affinity to ancient people from this area than any 'saxon' or the like.
