2. YOu just made my point. Breakthrough.
There does not need to be any breakthrough if the best players are
playing. Clearly all the talent was not being tapped.

Actually no......please name me 5 great black collegiate players from that era who didn't play in the NBA then. It was certainly oppressive but your trying to draw conclusions that aren't valid. Auerbach was a pretty shrewd guy....He knew Russell was his key to immortality and that Bird would bring him a second dynasty. McHale and Parrish for Joe Barry Carroll speaks for itself....
