Showing results for "Hip, Hop" in Basketball

Dieses außergewöhnliche Buch erzählt nicht nur die Geschichte des Basketballsports von James Naismith über Dr. J bis LeBron James und Dirk Nowitzki. Vielmehr verknüpft Autor Philipp „Dembo" Dembowski die sportliche Entwicklung mit der kulturgeschichtlichen: vom Kampf der afroamerikanischen Spieler in den USA für mehr Gleichberechtigung, über die Herkunft lässiger Baller-Outfits, fette Rhymes und Hip-Hop-Beats bis hin zur Frage, welches Basketballschuhdesign das beste aller Zeiten ist. Ein Buch, das kracht wie ein Slam Dunk von Michael Jordan oder ein Alley-Oop von Shaquille O'Neal.

On the street, every ballplayer has a story. Onaje X. O. Woodbine, a former streetball player who became an all-star Ivy Leaguer, brings the sights and sounds, hopes and dreams of street basketball to life. He shows that big games have a trickster figure and a master of Black talk whose commentary interprets the game for audiences. The beats of hip-hop and reggae make up the soundtrack, and the ballplayers are half men, half heroes, defying the ghetto's limitations with their flights to the basket.
