When Did the NBA Turn into a Fashion Show?

Found April 30, 2008 on Walker-Sports: Yardbarker Blogger Network
The NBA, Hip Hop and entertainment have always been closely linked, but now this is just going too far.

  • Well , NBA , Hip Hop , and entertainment are one , I thought you knew . I know when I was playing college basketball I have my best hip hop album on repeat trying to get in my playing ball mode . Don't hate on NBA players who compare's their self to hip hop stars , that's just the way it is they both make lots of cash , entertian large crowds , so quite frankly they depend on each other .

  • I don't get your point. I don't think the mohawk has anything to do with hip hop or fashion.
    He is just getting himself pumped up to go to war.
    I love the 'hawk. If you've got the right shaped head it looks cool.

  • you can not have a mohawk with a head that is thinner on top or a long face. It looks good on the rounder heads - ala Greg Oden. i was sad when he got rid of his. I liked it.

  • yes the long facers have to go with the long spikes (punk style), probably kinda hard to do with curly hair though, i always thought Mr.T's was the best
