Dutch Streetball Goes "Retrho"


This year's NBA Slam Dunk contest will be unique because one player has decided to take it to the YouTube generation.


Memphis' Rudy Gay is soliciting dunks on YouTube for him to try at the All-Star Weekend competition. Of course, he wants people actually to do the dunks, which makes me think he and his people don't understand the YouTube audience.


We don't dunk. Er, we can't dunk.


However, one of the submissions has already caught my attention. First, I loved the ESPN Streetball series, particularly my boy The Professor. But who knew that The Netherlands was such a hotbed of white-boy ballers.


This clip, from a streetball team called Rethro, was added as a submission to Gay's YouTube request. It's interesting: Good soundtrack, decent ball-handling. But one thing strikes me.


An average streetball crew from America would embarrass these guys.
