Nolan Richardson tells the story when he first heard about Larry Bird in a game broadcasted on the radio, where he thought Larry Bird was a brother that could play.

    Imagine reading about a really fast swimmer, winning all the races. Then you finally see a picture and he's black, blacker than the ace of spades.

    The 1929 Celtics professional basketball team was disbanded because their ethnicity was so well suited for basketball that no other team had a chance against them. They were Jewish!
