If that's the reason for the trade (and I still refuse to believe it, but maybe based on personal convictions), it's retarded as hell.

Honestly, when you look at that trade, what did the Pacers get? A couple of white boys in exchange for a couple of good players?! I'm betting Donnie Walsh and Larry Bird (who, I'll wager, are both Nascar fans) just wanted to aquire a couple more light skinned players. Its probably the truth.

I doubt race was a factor in the trade (well, maybe I'm being naive, but I can't understand doing busineess that way).

It's more like they wanted to get rid of Jax no matter the cost... and the cost was taking over the contracts of those two. Nothing comes easy in life.

You ever been around a racist American TMC? If not watch Borats' Frat boy scene.....then you'll get it.

Yeah.

I think Larry and Donnie really wanted to get rid of SJax... but I also think it's kinda weird that they'd be willing to swallow the horrid contracts of two guys who've never been anything more than role players (and Dunleavy wasn't even a good role player) with nothing to offer that they didn't already have. Larry said they wanted rebounds, which is why they made the trade. Are you kidding me? Dunleavy for rebounds?? Wow...

Murph gives them boards and an occasional jumper, but nothing else. Other than that, they got Ike in the trade and that's it.

I think the reason the Pacers trade was so easy is the same reason I thought Barnett's geriatric ass used to praise Dunleavy: because Mike's white. And Indy is in the middle of the Red states. It's just the truth. I know it's not something anyone wants to hear... but what else does Dunleavy bring to the game, besides being white?

If you think racism is gone, I can assure you it's not. My buddy, FurZo, because a Kings fan because (at the time) they were the whitest team in the league (Bibby, Vlade, Christy, Pollard, and a few others I can't think of right now). And he's not even a redneck, like Larry or Donnie.

Just food for thought.

Reggie Miller became a popular Pacer because he was the franchise' best player in history. If Eminem were from Harlem, they'd love him there, too.

32 wrote:They like Em' in Harlem..? That'd oddly shocking to me; he doesn't seem like the kinda artist they'd enjoy (not because he's white; just because he's mainstream).

And I guarentee that Bibby, Christy, and Jason Kidd are all half-white. I know some African-American's get extremely light skinned, but I've heard that the three of them are all mutts.

Don't be surprised, but I think it's retarded.

I don't know. Probably just not my kind of humor...has some funny parts, but it's gross. All it's humor comes from that... Guess it's a classic for people that likes that kind of humor, just not for me.
