well, history of diba in mta is something really unbelieveble. he came in mta being best il league player, with impressive percents (if i well remember we was 55% or somethig like that by 3. a treasure for almost every euro team. almost..) . he was very unlucky coming in a club coached by all coaches who totally refuse the arch as an offensive option. so he was always left on the side. he even had no chances! even by sfairo, who gave 25 min to kane, 20 to pargo last year (and u should see stats of those players. something unbelieveble!) and 6 min to diba! at his first error he was always fired from the match!
after pargo-kane dramatic saga, sfairo gave his some chances. he come out has 5th best scorer per minutes scoring from everywhere , well moving the ball, working hard on court.
thinking of some players like caner , linhart, landesberg, alexander, rochestie ,goudelock, had hard life in yellow but all of them showed their skills before or like landesberg, later .is it something by chance? mmhh.. thats not enough. i well remember crowd who cheer pargo at his first coming-back match, i well remember the exaltation of crown to any theatrical expression by kane. as i well remember enthusiasm of any arroyo forced action or by weems add. do u know why? well simply the club and fans are nba addicted. they are conditioned by everything could be considered close to nba, so forced action, muscles,jumper, dunker, black players. obviously not as ethnical sense, not as a discrimination of whites. its a psycological view of this sport. mta never build teams on euro players, never on shooters, never added shooting pf (something classical in euroleague at high level), when done lieke with macvan , obviously he was fired.
so in the middle of this environment, i bet that with his skills, if diba was a black player he had more consideration by past coaches and fan. its something psicological.
i even shouldnt listed withe or black players i loved and i hated. is simply absurd considering my words as racist if u really want to understand that. me, who even like black girls much more than withes!
culturally americans and israeli prefere show time, dunk, muscles, supermen. euro basket is different. we should give more space to euro phlosphy as nba is giving space to euro coaches and players as never happened before.
do u follow football? italian football. well there is a player in sassuolo, Caputo who not considering penalties, scored like immobile. He is a great player valuated around 15 mln. i always says that if he was brazilian or deutch his value would be 50. thats what i meant writing of diba
