do u respect the guys in streetball league? it's no doubt they have talent, but is it wasted? the fact is they don't play REAL basketball. They break just about every rule in the book. Some could be playing in the league but i think are just to lazy. Skip to my lou was signed and released quite abit, he even got called for traveling playing for the knicks...he skipped going down the court.
then u have clips like this

They are fun to watch but its a different game. Its like comparing those long drive golfers to real golfers. They are talented and entertaining but they don't have the skills to get the big bucks

I respect it as a sport. How can you not? Yes, the rules are lax, but there is obviously alot of skill and it's physically demanding, its not something that anybody can just pick up.
