Then I guess the first person that should apply this rule of thumb
is Mr. Don “Moose” Lewis. He's the one who said that “white basketball
players” are essentially shutout of conventional professional basketball
due to the growth of non-organized play on the court".

So if Mr. Lewis feels that players are being personally eliminated then
imo instead of complaining about it he should encourage players to do as
chilliwilli suggest. Earn a spot on a team by proving it regardless of race/whatever or walk away.
