Ain't shyt wrong with the article...the fact that the wolves are the whitest nba in like 30 years is intriguing...but its not like this is some damning accusatory hit piece...presented the facts as they were
There are some damning accusatory claims from the people quoted in the article who remain furthest from basketball interests and are more concerned with pushing their own racial agenda.

Most interesting thing in the article was about them having no black assistant coaches, that's very surprising.

The wolves don't? They actually have two black assistant coaches.

Yeah the writer doesn't really go to bat for them either...just presents their claim...when juxtaposed with the quotes from the front office (targeting black free agents but being outbidded or flat out turned down) it does make them seem pretty trivial...agree with you about the make up of the coaching staff and the front office

My mistake, I misread assistant general manager as assistant coach. I rescind the comkment about it being an interesting anomaly. That's three roles:damn:

Its not a big deal, kirilenko, pekovic, rubio, love are all good players. If they had signed batum in the off season than there wouldnt be anything here.

that has to do with Glen Taylor's "Country Club", something I've harped on for years.

For Edwards, the numbers trouble him by the "historical view," what he calls a "nullification of diversity and a reversal of history.

It ain't that serious brehs. nikkaz bringing up civil rights and the history of the black man in the NBA. :comeon:. The Timbercacs may be coincidental or they could have an agenda. Why should we really give a fukk what one owner or GM chooses to do with their team. Now if the league was pushing this type of movement then that's another story.
