It seems like in the 90s basketball became more and more black-dominated, as teams tried to get people who were like Michael Jordan.

I don't think the Celtics from the 80s would have had any trouble with these Argentinians.

NBA ball has gotten dumber and dumber, and more boring to watch.

And NBA ball is dumber because the college game is dumber than it used to be. And the high school game is dumber than it used to be.

Allen Iverson said it best: "Practice?"

It is not a black/white issue. The black Lakers won more championships in the 80's than the Celtics. And like those Celtics they would destroy any team in todays league. You can call it black basketball but it is realy junk basketball, street basketball, the kind of crap you play on the playground and white kids in America play the same junk ball. It is a game that is dominated by players "making their moves" There is no offense, there is no defense. There is really nothing you can watch on NBA basketball that you can go down to the local park and see.

I don't think the Detroit Pistons would have had any problems. Simple fact is, this is a worthless team made up of great players.
