Jeff Benedict presents proof of what we all instinctively knew: college basketball protects, pampers and prepares players for a lawless life in the NBA.1. Good basketball players are recruited for their athletic talent only.2. Classrooms provide little education for college basketball players.3. Few college players make it to the NBA.4. The NBA protects its image by helping pro players avoid the consequences of their criminal activities.5. Mostly female victims of these college or pro players are often too frightened to cooperate with criminal investigations.6. NBA players almost have immunity from prosecution for any crime.7. Million-dollar NBA players have never grown up and are slaves to their anger and sexual passions.Benedict documents the NBA players' criminal activity, their support by owners, coaches and lawyers, in order to save the NBA entertainment business. Benedict suggests that colleges and universities stop their enabling activities so basketball players receive a real education and graduate. But, Benedict can provide little proof that any college basketball program will take any steps to stop the crime wave of activities and rapes on campus or later in the NBA.The NBA is a lawless entertainment business.
Mr. Benedict delivered the "goods" in bringing to light the perverse violent "thug culture" which has destroyed the "soul" of the NBA.His no-holds barred (screw political correctness) approach has shed the light of truth on thug-rape culture which is now the NBA.He also peeled back the lid of college ball, revealing how academically inept players are coddled and exploited, are allowed to be a menace to society.Gone are the days of gentlemen players such as; Larry Bird, Dr. Julius Irving, and others...Thank you Mr. Benedict for an outstanding job superbly done.
Great book that dips off into the criminal lives of the NBA's greatest (and not so greatest) players. This book even has dirt on NBA players of crimes committed that was swept under the rug, by NBA league officials. The players name's in this book that got into previous legal troubles may surprise you.
Benedict chooses a premise that is easy to prove: Professional athletes, particularly NBA players, statistically are more likely than the general population to commit crimes, specifically crimes of sex and violence. His research is very compelling as he provides statistics on the number of players in his sample who have been accused of crime.But I do have mixed emotion about this book. The biggest flaw is after stating his thesis, he then gives examples. These are graphic and what grab the reader. But, in my opinion, he spends an exorbitant amount of time on a few examples. So, instead of focusing on a well-researched subject, he relies on a few examples. Now these examples are horrible. Specifically Rueben Patterson. You become more and more amazed at the stupidity and sense of entitlement of some of these athletes. It is appalling!My second gripe with this book is the story of the Iowa State freshman basketball player who commits armed robbery but is found not guilty, per the book, primarily due to the testimony of his coach, Johnny Orr. This is another detailed history which makes for interesting reading. But virtually all of it concerns an athlete with problems in college. This player's stay in the NBA was very short and not crime related. Benedict has plenty to prove his point. But I was very unimpressed with the stories he chose. Was it because these stories are the most entertaining to tell even if they only narrowly touch NBA players?Overall, I am glad I read this book. It contains great information and interesting, though disturbing stories. But I find it a little distressing on the thesis/proof connection. And it's also damning to the many good players/citizens who are painted with this broad brush. But if you are a female and want to be around NBA players, you need to understand what you may be dealing with.
Great insight into the NBA inner workings. Older book but still very relevant in sports.
What a fantastic book! The author exposes the vastly under-reported NBA problem: many NBA players have tremendous criminal baggage. Furthermore, he exposes how and why crimes by NBA players are typically barely punished (if at all). I'm a sports fan, so this was a sobering read for me.
New and revealing stories..
Excellent book about the dark side of NBA basketball
