Brehs, what are your thoughts on the Big 3 League?

@ Rappaport


It's going to be hard to find players under 30 though, there are a lot of pro-leagues around the world that pay well.

They have to be extremely creative to find guys who are perfect for 3 for 3. I honestly thought they were going to recruit guys like Aquille Carr, Josh Selby and other guys who didn't make it to the league but were flashy in HS for this, I didn't think this was going to be senior's night at the Y

There's honestly a lot of talent out there, but they have to really scout and not just ask for retirees to apply for jobs. I'll watch because I love basketball, but watching 40 year olds play 3 on 3 for 3 hours is going to be extremely hard to watch

Its not just old heads most of the league is young guys i think. They had a draft for em and everything, they just pushing the older guys since people know them.

I'd pay money to see mamoud Abdul raof destroy nikkas 30 and up

 

[Reid2Achieve]

I wonder if they could get Jordan in there. I heard he still plays.

Brah, it's about name recognition. At least to start with. The league can't grow an audience with Josh Shelby as a premier attraction. Think business, brah.

BIG3 Basketball League 2017 - VIP Experiences

Rosters here.

I got that team with Mahmoud, Rashard Lewis, White Chocolate and Kwame.

Size, shooting, playmaking. Mahmoud probably the most in shape dude in the league

 

[#StarkSet]

The league is REALLY old. They gotta recruit some younger guys for sure. Plus I heard their sideline reporter is going to be Michael Rappaport

I wish they'd let top high school players play in it

Imagine Allen iverson vs lamelo ball

You have to be over 30 and play in the league to be able to get in it
