Within the NBA context, he doesn't have an all-white team because that would be frowned upon by his peers. In other social contexts, he can be a Type IV who gets sanctioned by the laws of the land.
I thought this section from the Type IV description was interesting when compared parts of the recordings:
His ideals proclaim the right, even the duty, of discrimination. Accordingly, his behavior does not entail a sense of social deviation, with the resultant strains which this would involve. The ethic illiberal is as much a conformist as the ethnic liberal. He is merely conforming to a different cultural and institutional pattern which is centered, not about the creed, but about a doctrine of essential inequality of status ascribed to those of diverse ethnic and racial origins.
He seemed to be pretty insistent that he wasn't racist, this is just how the world works (whatever that means). I wonder who these friends are that are calling him up to tell him what his gf is posting on her Instagram.
