Metta World Peace made some disturbing comments on why Steve Nash is the smartest basketball player on the Lakers

Metta World Peace obviously has no problems speaking his mind. That is why he is gold for us sports bloggers. However, this also causes headaches for teammates and coaches. There is no such thing as an edit button when it comes to Peace’s mouth.

Peace was asked if Steve Nash was the Lakers smartest player. His response was ignorant and foul. He dissed his own race and was demeaning towards Steve Nash’s abilities on a basketball court. I’m positive Nash isn’t just smart on the basketball court because he is white.

Metta World Peace was asked if Steve Nash is the smartest player on the Lakers: “He’s white, so probably yes.”

Gortat: 'I'm going to be fine' without Nash

But the 28-year-old Gortat, who produced career highs in points (15.4...
