    This is the whitest I've seen. I thought we already had this debate in a similar thread that guys like Pau & Marc Gasol, Ricky Rubio, Luis Scola, Andrea Bargnani, and others are NOT white. Most of those guys are Spanish, Italian, or Argentinan.

    I didn't think that was considered white. To me, white are caucasians born in america. Like this guy:

    I guess I'm wrong but Scola is from Argentina, not in Europe, is he white? I'd also consider Englanders white and Austrailians, but those guys are closer to Latin or Hispanic to me.

    "to me, whites are caucasians born in in America"
    So... white Europeans aren't white to you? That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard.
