He'll write another BS black KKK article and people who hate him for this(which is trash) will praise him.

so is saying there was affirmative action was on the team, but in reverse?

that whole argument is ridiculous, but even if it were true...minorities, especially blacks, are all about affirmative action policies, but if it is working in reverse it is wrong?

a couple of things I found out..

D. Wilkens tore his achilles in early 92 and couldn't even play in the Olympics if he wanted to..

I. Thomas 91-92 season
18.5 ppg, 7.2 apg, 1.5 spg on 45% shooting (29% 3pt)

J. Stockton 91-92 season
15.8 ppg, 13.7 apg, 3.0 spg on 48% shooting (41% 3pt)

But Thomas was supposed to be light years better..

USA basketball wanted Jordan
They knew Jordan wouldn't play if isaiah was there
So they didn't invite Isaiah

This column is bullshite
The team was picked to be the best team they could put together

I do. He just proves once again what a piece of shite he is. His career is littered with racial articles. Its his fallback when his pathetic mind is unable to find something to write about. Its a shame that in this day an age that such a successful guy can feel so inferior because he was born black.

Fwiw, he criticizes black people more than he takes up for them, generally speaking.

I just keep re-reading it cause I can't believe what I'm reading.. He even said Worthy should have made it over Mullin.. Mullin stats beasted Worthy for 4 solid season before the Olympics

He should have to write a retraction.. seriously..

I can remember people saying that Lattner and Mullin were added to whiten up the team, so its not like he is the only one that believes this although its a stupid point. Michael, Magic, and Larry were the biggest names on that team and none of them wanted Thomas on it. He definitely deserved to be included but he made his bed. Mullin was an elite scorer at the time, similar to Melo. Its a lot easier to look back and say this stuff, but these guys were all deserving, even Lattner.
