While I’m not 100% sure, I’d say I’m 99% sure that the Big 3 basketball league is going to be considerably more entertaining than the NBA is. If you’re not aware of what this league is, it’s a 3 on 3 league featuring former NBA players. The league is being backed by Ice Cube and here’s a little something about their philosophy.
Combining superstar players and fan interaction before and after the games make this an exciting live experience. The entire league is operated and managed by the players. No outsiders. No politics. Just highly competitive basketball played as it’s meant to be.
And these aren’t just dud players. The league’s gotten some serious talent. Speaking of which, Allen Iverson just named his own team “3’S COMPANY!” The Answer officially announced the name at a media event this morning and the logo and team colors have also been revealed. As for Allen’s team, the draft is set for later this year and he’ll have some big names to choose from including Brian Scalabrine, Reggie Evans and Josh Childress and Iverson’s old running buddy, Larry Hughes.
Some other team names in the 8-team league …
— Tri-State (Jermaine O’Neal & Bonzi Wells’ team)
— Ghost Ballers (Mike Bibby’s team)
— Trilogy (Kenyon Martin’s team)
— Killer 3s (Chauncey Billups’ team)
— 3-Headed Monsters (Rashard Lewis’ team)
Here’s Iverson’s logo.
