Malcolm. Malcolm Gladwell is a stone cold genius who loves a great sports argument.

I went on to Bill Simmons podcast and I had this totally ludicrous thing that I wanted to argue about which was I was like could a basketball team made up of Nigerians an all-time basketball team made up of Nigerians, an all-time basketball team made up of Nigerians,

be the greatest basketball team of all time.

And then I amended it, I amended it in two ways.

I said, all right, I'm going to have two corollaries. One is I'm going to have two corollaries one is I'm going to add

West Indians because all West Indians not all of them but like I'm I'm

Jamaican where am I'm where my people from we're from Nigeria originally like I'm

eboe right most Jamaicans came from Nigeria really so I add the

Caribbean and then I said and just for fun let's also add the rest of Southern Africa.

And then, so I was like, I construct this team, it's totally ridiculous.

Yeah, Africa and the Caribbean.

So basically I say, can Africa and the Caribbean put together an all-time team

it's better than an African-American

team a euro team and a white American team.

Maybe.

The third one maybe.

The first one maybe.

No, no. The answer is yes.

We don't have time to do this, but I will convince you, I can't convince you of this.

That Africa and the Caribbean, in basketball.

Yeah, all-time team. And also, you qualify by virtue.

You say Africa or Nigeria?
