If skill were more evenly distributed NBA contracts would be equitably distributed, since the NBA odviously has a preduice against white persons Larry Byrd is a mere fluke or token or throwback.
============================================================
Basketball pros are more likely to be Black because Black men tend to be taller than White men. It is also true that Black men practice a lot more than Whites.
No one is a fluke or a throwback, that is just dumb. Individuals have talents and attributes that are unique to them, but statistically, Blacks are taller.
There will always be some White basketball players, because the talents and level of practice of soem of them is equal to that of Blacks.
Since you like statistics so much then the stat about blacks having less money & wealth than whites, Asians, and Latinos is worth taking a look at. As a matter of fact, when Columbus was sailing around the world, making discoveries & while Europe was inventing all sorts of gadgets, and advancing the world forward black peoples were chucking spears in Africa, not progressing much, not inventing anything, and sadly it appears that not a lot has changed in Africa at the hands of black people. Black people in the country of So. Africa inherited a nation built by white people and from what I can tell if whites hadn't gone to Africa it would be much the same as it was hundreds of years ago.
I don't think you will find any white tribes that are still chucking spears these days, and likely they quit with the spears right after they discovered the process of making stuff out of metal. So maybe your idea that whites have 10 X more money then blacks is correct but flawed; it might have more to do with RACE in general rather than America being a racist nation and keeping the black man down. Also, Regarding all the issues here in a America there were no benefits to slavery, not one. It was despicable, evil, inhumane and I am very thankful (but not surprised) that the Christians were in the forefront of the movement to abolish slavery.
