Doesn't matter....at the end of the day, can they play?

KLove? Yes, pls.

Rubio? (not even white - he's hispanic, lol) - Yes, pls.

Pekovic? He's Serbian(?) Isn't he?

Jose Barea? Hispanic.

So Stiemsma and Love are perhaps their only U.S. Born Caucasian players. And if they acquire Varejao as been rumored?

Andy V is Brazilian.
Hispanic is a group, not a race. you can be black and hispanic. you can be white and be hispanic. those players that are hispanic are white with spaniard descendants. the term hispanic means originating from a spanish-speaking country.

Brazilian is not a race either. Just letting you know since you're trying to argue with the concept of my thread.
Yeah, Hispanic countries have black people, white people, and a whole lot of mixed people.  For example, although the Gasol's are Spanish, they are obviously white.

Not trying to argue with your thread, man, but some of us chose to see people for what/who they truly are rather than this American-based color category born of slavery.

  People didn't categorize each other by race before slavery?
