How do you feel about the return of the NBA?
Interviews By Brooke Hoffman photos by Greg Bezanis
“They make too much money. They’re overpaid and they don’t follow through with what they say they’re going to do.”
John Mitchell,
Broad and Ritner streets
“I can’t wait.”
Corey Keith,
15th and Wharton streets
“I think that with all the money they make and all the fans who provide them with all that money, they shouldn’t have done [things] that way. There are young kids who want to be professional basketball players. There are guys on the bench who would kill to have a chance to get on the floor. I think it was really selfish.”
Alice Walker,
16th and Dickinson streets
“I’m happy. I love the Sixers. I would choose basketball over any other sport. I was really missing it.”
Eric Powell,
Third Street and Snyder Avenue
