Simmons and hopefully Thon Maker down the track. Dante Exum hopefully comes back well from injury.


We are producing good talent through the American college system.


Can we do it?

Since 1936 when basketball became included in the Olympics, there are only 3 times that the USA mens basketball team has not won gold. The first time was before we were sending NBA players, the second time came against the soviets and had some very shady officiating, the third time was 2004 when most of the best NBA players sat out and the team had serious problems with the roster makeup and chemistry.

Eventually the US will lose again, and Australia could be the next team to beat us, but I wouldnt hold my breath.

Not sure how exactly considering your country was running nation wide reports about him, and studying our countries national sport to describe how it is he became so tough. :oldlol:

Don't know how many times I heard Rugby and AFL mentioned during that period of time. :oldlol:

What makes you say that? Mason just has issue with people breeding in general, not just because they are africans breeding at an alarming rate.

You might want to read more of his posts. Dude is basically a slightly more extreme version of you, when it comes to racism.

Not a racist dude.


I don't dismiss people based on colour and I don't segregate or harm those who are coloured.


Saying factual information concerning a race is not racist. A term thrown around way too loosely.

Generalizing an entire race, due to the actions of a bunch of retards = Racism.

Generalizations =/= Facts.

We need to be clear about levels of 'racism'


If you were to generalise that whites tend to eat more fast food, you would factually be correct. Though you technically could be termed a racist for saying that.


Everyone has ingrained racism or prejudice. I'm sure that you naturally gravitate towards your own race for friends, rather than other groups of people and that is perfectly fine.


I think we need to be really clear about what is acceptable racism and what is not.


I think people often confuse racism with prejudice.

I think Chicago alone has produced a bunch of talent in just the last few years. Weren't both Duke top Frosh from Chicago? Parker and Okafor.

:facepalm :facepalm :facepalm

Just because there are a lot of Indians (BTW, a LOT of Pakistanis drive cabs as well) driving cabs doesn't mean that "most" Indians drive them. I do not even want to get started on your stance against Muslims and Arabs.

Nice to see two Millenials derailing the thread with their ad hominem claims of racism, meanwhile referring to all white folk as 'Klansmen'.

Good game last night. Aussies should easily medal at these Olympics; they dismantled the French and should handle China and Venezuela with ease.

And as only ISH can manage, a thread about basketball somehow devolved into a thread where people call each other racist. :lol

We can be inconsistent though. We played really hard against the USA, I just hope we don't come out flat next game.
