"I think I've gotten more techs from black refs than white refs" -Kobe

"This settles it" ??

Nah man. You're just looking for proof of racism here and its not cool. The study was majorly flawed so even if there was racism going on, this studdy doesn't settle anything.

Why was it flawed? - Because they just looked box score info to see who the refs were. They didn't see the fouls that were called. There might have been one lone black ref on an otherwise all-white crew, and that black ref might actually call more fouls on black players than his white colleagues do. Maybe to look like he's not pro-black or whatever. This study doesn't answer that question.

Maybe you should go talk to bigpimpin and playa about looking for proof of racism before you tell me to. No one else brings it up, until it's been brought up by them.

This Kobe thing is debatable, either way you look at it.
