What happened to the White-Americans NBA players?

Chase Budinger IS the future.... for not only white basketball players across America, but humanity.

I think it comes down to the culture of the game. Why are there so many more white Europeans than American white guys? Because they grow up in basketballsystems and truly believe they can become great players. In America, every good to great white kid grows up with a different mindset. It's a cycle that isjust entrenched in our culture. Not saying that is the end all, but I think that plays a part.


It's not like these white Europeans are great "athletes."
IMO
 
Coby Karl being in the L should be inspiration to all white-Americans that, they too, can be in the NBA someday.

While I never thought Ammo was going to be the next Larry Bird like some people thought, I thought he was going to be a solid scorer. His rookieyear wasn't too bad, he just shot terribly and couldn't defend. Then he tore his knee before his second season and his confidence seems to have beenshattered since.
 
I do not have answer, other than simply not being good enough.

And it occurs way before any thoughts of the NBA..
