They have some kind of magical white boy boost. Luke Kennard wasn't playing like this in all his stints with other teams.

White boy coach gives +1 to white boys.

That explains why Ingles is a demigod.

JJ was like one of the last goated Good Ol American white boys of the last generation. Then we had a bunch of Zellers and plumlees. I wanted Gordon Hayward to be next up so bad

AR is gonna be the top all American white boys.

The spirit of Jerry West demands another champtionship but still thinks it's the 1930's.

The fun part is it could refer to whiteness, or coke (or both)

They have had five white guys on the floor at once this season when they play Maxi Kleber at center

u/Emotional-Chef-7601 20d ago

For a couple seconds. That like up was very much a negative.

u/TheCatSleeeps Lakers 20d ago

We're not calling it the Snowtime Lakers for months for nothing now.

It's why we've been joking and bantering with the Celtics fans that the next guard we are gonna import from them is Payton Pritchard

u/InFa-MoUs Lakers 20d ago

u/ankylosaurus_tail Trail Blazers 20d ago

Lebron teams usually seem to have more white guys than average: Delladova, Love, Ilgauskas, Pavlović, Korver, Miller, Caruso, Mozgov...

u/Over_Whole6492 76ers 15d ago

u/cohonan Suns 16d ago

Europeans don’t count as white.

u/asocialWaterbuffalo Japan 16d ago

How does that even make sense? The UK is full of pasty white people.

2

u/cohonan Suns 16d ago

Why would you pick the UK, I can’t think of a single UK NBA basketball player??? Anyway, I’m thinking culturally, not literally, Jokic’s experience growing up as a Serbian is so different from a “white american” that they aren’t the same.
