Klotz played the sport he loved for an insanely long time and was paid to do so. And he continued to stay involved with the game, for profit, for another 20+ years after he stopped playing. That's a fantastic career.<br /><br />If I was a serious basketball player I would prefer to play one D-league game. It feels like more of a "real" professional basketball accomplishment than playing for the Generals.zmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10435738243743797845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6048775.post-76687074367572691392015-01-05T09:14:22.874-05:002015-01-05T09:14:22.874-05:00Playing for the Generals is definately the better ...Playing for the Generals is definately the better job. that said, I can't help but consider the mindset. If you were to go into the d-league game not knowing it was only for one game, but represented a chance, albeit small, to realize a dream of making the NBA then I think the D league game is a no-brainer. Since I suck at basketball, I take the steady gig as the General who gets the confetti bucket dumped on him. <br /><br />As for Klotz vs. Kotite, I don't think you can make a salient argument for Kotite. Klotz wins an NBA championship and is part of the Globetrotter tradition that brought a lot of happiness to people in the pre-digital age as well as being ambassadors of basketball all over the world. Kotite plays for some really lousy Giants teams and has a losing record coaching the Eagles and Jets. Marlshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00503570749505064067noreply@blogger.com
