Are you aware that the guy who wrote this is possibly the whitest person alive? If that adds any perspective.

I cannot believe you would even attempt to write an article such as this. The simple fact is that if you had written this article about a team that had to many black players you would be condemned as a racist. But since you chose to write this about Larry Bird (who is white) who chooses to have six white players on the team (which is still the minority) no one thinks twice about it being racially driven. In fact they laugh at it and just say ohh them white boys. If any white person were to say anything somewhat negative about a black athlete they are immediately assaulted as a racist feen; but if a black individual were to say anything negative or somewhat condescending about a white person its just passes over and is viewed as comic relief. Each one of you who reads this knows this to be true; and if you try to deny it then your denying reality. Oh my goodness that is the truth. How come Bird can’t have some white players on his team??? Ohh did you all forget that a few years back a white player won the MVP award three years in a row. Nash twice, then Nowitzki; they are foreign yes, but nontheless white. Are black athletes for the most part more talented than white athletes in NBA? I would say yes; from the mere fact of what Kobe Bryant and LeBron James can do i don’t think any one could disput that. All i am saying is that what you wrote was very unproffesional and uncalled for. Your title was a snowstorm comes early to Indiana? What if i wrote an artice and said a black whole has settled in on Georgetown University? I know what would happen, i would have Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson bringing down the fire and brimstone on me.

So who’s the blackest team in the NBA? And is racism assumed to be the reason why they have so many black guys on the team?

So, the Pacers have 6 white players out of 13 (less then have) and are racist.
Meanwhile, the Celtics have what? 11? 12 black players?
Not racist though. They’re the right color.

Hilarious commentary! I’m in Indy, and this coming season will be a test for sure. Also, hedda…take a xanax and lighten up. Not everything in this life is racially inflamed. Good stuff!

Um…this surprises you people?? (Who you callin’, you people?) If Larry Bird was an icecream flavour he would be a scoop “Every type of vanilla ever, ever”. So it shocks you that this racist country bumpkin from French Lick, Indiana has the whitest team? I’m shocked they didn’t try to trade for Adam Morrison and Steve Blake this off season too.

I know, I know….”how dare you call Larry Bird a racist!!” relax…it’s not my fault he calls those mini Snickers bars “Nigger Toes”…geez, get off my back.
