    Harden's eyes appear to be more open than the other four. Like he's trying to find the open man.

    Omer is 2nd on the eyes open list, then Lin, Parsons and DMo mine as well be dead-eyeing the rim from 3pt land.

    Wow just noticed we only have only one black guy starting on the team. So much for the "always pick the black guy" theory on the basketball courts! Lol

    No joke or negativity but my friends and I did just that back in middle school for a summer camp 100 x 4 relay run. Pick the dude since we though he was fast, small town with 99% of the pop being Caucasian, boy were we dead wrong. We had to chase several runners down just to place 3rd....talk about losing face.:grin:

    In all seriousness, is Morey onto something here? Is there a bias against non-black players that allows Morey to acquire them for less than market value, or at otherwise lower points in the draft?

    Have the Texans done the same thing with their "whiter than normal" roster? Do you really think JJ Watt should have gone as low as he did in the draft? hmmm....

    Probably to a degree...if you purely look at Parsons and Lin they both had a solid basketball career, starting with winning state titles in high school. Parsons got a scholarship but Lin did not because.....? Now you enter the NBA and Parsons was taken in the 2nd round even though he had a stellar career at the college level because.....?
