I like how the English dude does a "White Men Can't Jump" warm-up.
humbling clip of Nets point guard Devin Harris playing a quick game of one-on-one against some random English chap in jeans and a v-neck sweater
OK, so "random English chap in jeans and a v-neck sweater" might be stretching it.
the guy's name is actually Stuart Tanner — a sort of English, Skip To My Lou-like playground legend

It was a nice little video to watch, but a 1 on 1 game to 2 had me wondering.
Anyways, found some more footage of this Stuart Tanner.

Seriously? That was so grossly exaggerated. Devin hits the first shot to get first ball. He doesn't even try on his first shot attempt. The British dude hits a quick jumper the first time, then does a little nifty move to win the game. That's it.

I saw it yesterday...
Harris prefered to be sleeping than playing basketball with that mood

Of course it's exaggerated. He won against an NBA player, that is still in his prime or nearing his prime, despite the short playing time he faced the player. If I won a very short game like that against A.I., I would also probably be posting vids of it like crazy.

So would I, but Devin didn't really get owned or destroyed there. He didn't take it seriously, and barely put in an effort. If he got posterized or beat 10-1, then yeah, he got owned.

That's still not an excuse for losing.
If Wilt was still alive and present in that game, he would be all over Devin and tell him to smoke that fool. (Wilt, in his youth as an NBA player, participated in streetball competitions during the offseason)

Old guy : "wasn't better than lebron though?"
Devin : "Naw Naw"

I know alot of people like this video because of the white vs. black element but I knew atleast one person had to verbalise it.

I liked the part in the second video where he flipped the ball in the air then put his shirt over the guys head.

learn to take a joke. and if you don't have a problem with that "white vs. black element" being on people's mind than why would you have a problem with someone speaking what is on their mind?

Yes...let's say whatever we want and play it off as a joke when someone talks about it. Yes...I'm wrong and I have the problem...not you.
