"The NBA is predominated by black players because there are more good black players than there are good white players out there right now."

But shouldn't there be a quota for the number of white minorities the NBA must hire; even if they aren't as good? Even if it displaces more deserving black athletes? For the sake of "diversity"?

Since you're asking my opinion - I'm a fan of meritocracies, and not at all a fan of hiring quotas.
