Wow. Did this ever go south? We have now sunk to black people are better at basketball. Absolute garbage. I could care less about PC. I do care about a lack of critical thought and bare racism. So, there are more black players than white players at the highest level of the game. You don't just leap to the conclusion that black people are naturally better at basketball. In the same way, we don't assume that white kids are better at lacrosse and hockey. The truth reflects participation at the youth level. The truth reflects that kids tend to participate in sports their parents played. Is there a socio economic tie to sport participation? Absolutely. Are financial barriers higher in some sports than others? Absolutely. Is there a great deal of iniquity in how wealth is distributed? Absolutely. Do the math.
