    definitely not too "Euro"..... but with the departure of Belli, how do we rank on the "whiteness scale"?

    we gotta be top 5 on pasty-meter
    We have what 4 Pigmentally challenged players?

    Utah has 4 - Fesenko, Kirilenko, Okur and Hayward.

    Indiana has 4 - Dunleavy, Foster, Hansbrough and McRoberts

    But I think the Nets have just taken the lead with Murphy, Farmar, Humphries, Zoubek and Brook Lopez

      If that's the case then he needs to say International. Sorry to be a stickler but saying a team is too Euro because it has a bunch of international players on the roster is like complaining that a fruit basket has too many oranges in it while pointing at bananas, apples and plums. lol


      Note: The Raptors have every continent covered with the exception of Asian.
      OK that was awesome!

          Hump and Lopez should only count for 1/2 each.... im not really sure why, as ive never really been able to determine what race Hump is, and Lopez is some kind of weird Mexican Troll creature... but i'll fight coceding the lead in the Aggregate SPF Value Race to NEW FUCKING JERSEY.

            Isn't Richard Peddie from Antarctica? I know he was cold as ice when he had a bigger part in team operations.

                in terms of the teams success, they could put 5 albino japanese midgets on the floor as far as im concerned, as long as they could ball.

                but cmon now... we all smiled a little on the inside when we watched the video of Jeremy Lin showing up John Wall in the vegas summer league.

                  make it 2. i dont think you can consider kleiza a european ballplayer. he pretty much grew up and played ball in the states. his only euro experience is the lithuania national team which is like every 4 years? and when he played for olympiacos last year.

                          my bad...I thought your list was answering the, tounge in cheek, "are we still too euro question". Now I see that you were answering the "are we perhaps the least Euro?"question. Ignore my followup post. Glad to see we are on the same page
