Here is a quote referring to some NBA players from ESPN.com

"Most people learn to share in kindergarten. Others go on to the NBA.
Using a stat called Usage Rate, John Hollinger identifies the worst
ball hogs in the game. Story

Man, that is dead on. C-Webb, there's a prime example of the medias adoration for the black athlete and how lazy they have become in their reporting. The article is good. Allen (The Ultimate Gangster) Iverson and his buddies are so selfish they got the USA Olympic team beat by a bunch of no-name white guys, multiple times! So, what does all the ball hogging get in the end. If Iverson stays healthy, probably in the Caste System inspired Hall of Fame. It's a diservice to the guys who played legit ball to let hung-up primadonnas like him in, but watch and see, I bet it happens.

This article doesn't include a token white simply for the sake of maintaining an artificial racial balance when discussing something negative. Amazing. Maybe there'll be an edited, updated version to come.

I have long said that Allen Iverson is the worst basketball player I
have ever seen. Period. He is the ultimate ball hog, throwing up one
forced shot after another, constantly complaining on those rare
occasions where a foul isn't called on the guy who dares to defend him.
That is the secret of Iverson's scoring average; almost every night, he
has double digit free-throw attempts. Free throws are about the only
shots Iverson can make consistently, and I am convinced that the
corrupt refs in the NBA are instructed to call fouls for him whenever
he forces his way to the basket-which he does every time he doesn't
throw up one of his countless number of outside bricks. Iverson was
recruited right out of prison to Georgetown by their notorious racist
coach John Thompson. If not for the lunacy of white people today in Don
King's America, he would still be in prison today.



I've coached youth basketball for years, and combined with my
first-hand experiences as a player, I can state emphatically that black
players tend to be ball hogs, at every age level. This is an absolutely
true stereotype.
