The lane's too wide.
I remember the great Jewish players. They were the game until law school and the black players came along. My first game at the Garden featured a guard named Red Holtzman for the Rochester Royals in blue and red stripped shorts. I patterned my game after Barry Kramer from NYU. I think he is a retired judge upstate.
