Source Wikipedia
4.9/5 (10742 ratings)
Description:Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Pages: 27. Chapters: National Basketball Association criticisms and controversies, Tim Donaghy, Pacers-Pistons brawl, List of players banned or suspended by the NBA, Seattle SuperSonics relocation to Oklahoma City, Knicks-Nuggets brawl, 2007 NBA betting scandal, Minnesota Timberwolves failed relocation to New Orleans, Gene Melchiorre, Haywood v. National Basketball Association, NBA dress code, The Phantom Buzzer Game, Robertson v. National Basketball Association, The Clock Incident.

In turn, the NBA plays rap and hip-hop in arenas during games, and ABC-ESPN uses the music during its coverage. Players in the NBA have tried rap or hip hop themselves (Shaquille O'Neal, Kobe Bryant, Tony Parker, Allen Iverson, Chris Webber, and Ron Artest are some examples) and several also dress and act in ways that are in accordance with hip-hop culture (for example, the tattoos and jewelry worn by several players). Since 1998, the NBA's television ratings have dropped considerably (some also attribute this is to Michael Jordan's retirement and the decline of the Chicago Bulls), and criticism of the league has mounted to the point where some columnists have freely referred to players in the league as 'thugs' in columns and referred to the league as 'violent'. Some have argued that the criticism of the NBA is hypocritical...We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
