lol...they might have to sub the dunk contest for a layup contest

[PrettyToney23]

Channing Frye wants to know where he can sign up.

wow! Larry Brown is already trying become a coach there because they'll play "the right way".

A league where a hand is raised after every foul call and the dirtiest picks and screens are set.

It won't get off the ground. Not only will there be no minority players, no talented, self-respecting white player would play there either.

It might be a hoax.

I could care less if they did. It would flop anyways. I sure as hell wouldn't watch it. It would be the reverse And1 mixtape.

How'd you come to that conclusion? And1 is streetball and is all inclusive. Anyone who's outstanding in streetball can get down with And1; they're not prohibiting anyone from playing. One of And1's best players is White - "The Professor". If you've ever watched em play, he's no token.

I wasn't referring to race, but style of play. The hoax league supposedly was going to stress fundamentals where And1 as you just said is streetball. That's what I meant by the opposite. Plus they would be the opposite in inclusiveness as you point out if it was true.

[the garden faithful]

Whatever next ??

A whites only Hockey league ??

I hope this guy tries as hard as he can to get this league going. That way it will have more impact on him when it fails, which it will. The amount of ignorance propagated in such a short article is pretty amazing.

But people of white, American-born citizens are in the minority now.

The white game of basketball, which is essentially a fundamental game, works.

No - it doesn't. That's actually how the league started, but it wasn't until integration that the sport didn't register on a national level.

Quote

Would you want to go to the game and worry about a player flipping you off or attacking you in the stands or grabbing their crotch?

Two Words: John Rocker

...like Larry Bird never got into fisticuffs while playing.
...like Bill Lamebeer and John Stockton aren't two of the dirtiest players in history.
...like Tim Duncan isn't one of the most fundamentally sound players to ever play the game...his nickname is "Big Fundamental" for Christ's sake...

...speaking of Christ, find some of the least informed, ridiculous, and ignorant articles ever written on basketball here:
