BTW, ThickSkin posted his feelings earlier in this thread that emphasize my point exactly about the image of the NBA.
I'm @ the same age as some of the older NBA vets, and have grown up and dealt with the changing fashion trends from a parental and authority standpoint. I have to explain to my 15 year old son over and over that "the belt is supposed to be worn over the waist, not under the butt!" He feels it's cool to look like everyone else, but once I told him where this particular 'fashion statement' originated (in prison), he has adjusted some. It is a daily battle, but I'm getting somewhere.
