Metta World Peace Thinks Steve Nash Is the Smartest Laker, Mainly Because He’s White

When it comes to Metta World Peace, nothing he says or does should surprise you. Whether it’s wishing everyone a Happy Labor Day when it’s really Memorial Day, or elbowing James Harden in the head, or even changing his name from Ron Artest to Metta World Peace. {snip}

So it doesn’t surprise us at all to see the response when asked if Steve Nash was the smartest player on the Lakers.

The response comes courtesy of LA Times blogger Mark Medina’s Twitter account.

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