I personally don't classify someone as thug if they're wearing saggy jeans and over sized T's, but I know that a large portion of america does. It could be argued that overall talent level is the reason that NBA stars are getting back into the minds of middle america, but i'm pretty sure the way they dress is playing a large role.

Now whether a large portion of black celebrities and athletes are wearing suits and "nice" clothes because of a greater cultural fad started by Kanye, Jay, etc and David Stern jumped on the trend, or vice versa I don't know.

well great work san antonio, you benched your team just enough to give jackson the home advantage vs dallas which could absolutely be the difference if bynum isn't healthy but then you played your guys the next game to get ginobli injured and lose the overall record, good job
