This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.

Important notes on articles:

• Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
• Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
• If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

Think That Game Was Played At Rucker Park in NYC by dillon77

For those that not familiar with "the city" hoops lore, Rucker Park basketball court is in Harlem, Manhattan, New York City, at 155th Street and Frederick Douglass Boulevard, just east of the former Polo Grounds site. It's a place where great city players made their reps, from The Helicopter (Herman Knowings) and The Hawk (Connie Hawkins) to The Pearl (Dwayne Washington), Ed Pinckney and Chris Mullin (who felt he had to play there to be taken seriously).

There was an all-star game for guys and girls there last summer and obviously or two recruits - Citron and Miles -- were invited. I'm chuckling thinking that the Pearl -- with his arsenal of now-look passes and "I'm by you moves" to the hoop would've liked seeing Miles show her stuff.
