Ooooooo. That’s fun.

I envision a fenced in Southside court with players milling around, photoshopped corporate symbols on their heads and Kelly off to the side yelling, “Igotznext”.

Ahhh, the old days of pick-up. No guns just talent and money.
Think “White Men Can’t Jump”.
Iconic movie.

dude, not far off...
back in the day...i worked 3rd shift Monkey Wards, downtown Chicago - state st - (not chicago ave store)

After shift, would go down to the old Navy pier gym and play basketball.

I was one of the few white faces there at that time of day.
If it was not too crowded it was “We got nexts”.

If it was crowded, it basically was, win your way to court #1.
