In [http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/02/18/AR2006021801482.html this article about White NBA players], Michael Wilbon writes about Chris Mullin, "Chris Mullin, the five-time NBA all-star and Dream Teamer who is now general manager of the Golden State Warriors, studied the moves of black stars Walt Frazier and Earl Monroe while growing up watching the 1970s Knicks. But he wore John Havlicek's No. 17 and looked up to Larry Bird." I think given this it is fair to say he looked up to Larry Bird and wore Havilicek's number because the three shared a common racial background.--[[User:Namiba|TM]] 14:00, 5 March 2011 (UTC)

:Well, that's quite an assumption to make. Perhaps Mullin looked up to Bird because they had similar athletic "gifts". The only clear racial overtones are the ones provided by you.[[Special:Contributions/172.190.20.145|172.190.20.145]] ([[User talk:172.190.20.145|talk]]) 00:20, 22 April 2011 (UTC)

No mention of his trademark flat-top? He has always had this unique style.

"Racial overtones"

In this article about White NBA players, Michael Wilbon writes about Chris Mullin, "Chris Mullin, the five-time NBA all-star and Dream Teamer who is now general manager of the Golden State Warriors, studied the moves of black stars Walt Frazier and Earl Monroe while growing up watching the 1970s Knicks. But he wore John Havlicek's No. 17 and looked up to Larry Bird." I think given this it is fair to say he looked up to Larry Bird and wore Havilicek's number because the three shared a common racial background.--TM 14:00, 5 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
