The true story of basketball lives as much off the court as on the hardwood; it is about politics and race and cultural clashes as heated as a final-four buzzer-beater. This story unfolds in all its gritty and colorful detail in Under the Boards. From the birth of the Larry Bird legend to the ascendancy of a hip-hop-infused NBA to the backlash against bling and the contemporary American game, Jeffrey Lane traces the emergence of a new culture of basketball, complete with competing values, attitudes, aesthetics, and racial and economic tensions. The revolution Lane describes resonates in the way Latrell Sprewell's assault on his coach forever changed NBA power relations; in legendary coach Bob Knight's entanglement in high school basketball history; in the dramatic shift in attitude toward European players; in the impact of the deaths of two rappers on rookie Allen Iverson's career; and in conflicting cultural models rooted in ideals of black masculinity and white nostalgia. In these moments Lane's book documents a profound change in basketball and in American culture over the last thirty years.Binding Type: Paperback

Well-made liner that ‘s heavy & durable
Size: 72"W x 78"L (Pack of 1), Color: 1a. Clear
These Barossa Design Long Shower Curtain Liner is thick, sturdy, and looks and feels noticeably more durable than standard liners. The heavier weight helps it hang straight without clinging, giving the shower a clean, polished look.
It does a great job keeping water contained, and the material feels strong enough to last through regular use without tearing or thinning out. The length is ideal for taller showers, adding extra coverage and protection.

Great Quality and Perfect for Creative Projector Effects
Size: 72"W x 72"L (Pack of 1), Color: 1a. Clear
Although designed as a shower curtain liner, I ended up using this for a completely different purpose and it worked perfectly.
I placed it behind my study window as a projection screen for Halloween videos, and the results were fantastic. The material allowed the projector image to display clearly while still diffusing the light nicely for a great effect from outside.
The quality was much better than expected, the material felt durable, and it was easy to position and work with.
This product turned out to be incredibly versatile and offered excellent value for the money. If you enjoy creative decorating ideas or seasonal displays, this works brilliantly as an inexpensive projection screen alternative.

Perfect length and actually stays in place.
Size: 72"W x 75"L (Pack of 1), Color: 1a. Clear
This liner solved a problem I didn’t realize was bothering me until I switched to it. The extra length makes a big difference—no more water sneaking out onto the floor or the curtain riding up while you’re showering. It hangs nicely and gives a cleaner, more finished look compared to standard sizes.
The material feels thicker than the cheap liners you usually find, but not overly stiff. It drapes well and doesn’t stick to you while showering, which is a big plus. The magnets at the bottom actually work and help keep it in place against the tub, especially if you have any airflow in the bathroom.
Installation was simple and the reinforced holes seem durable enough to last. Overall, it just does what it’s supposed to do without any fuss. For the price, it’s a solid upgrade and something I’d definitely buy again.

Well made
Size: 72"W x 72"L (Pack of 1), Color: 1b. Clear-heavy
The magnets hold well. The grommets are sturdy. The plastic is a bit thick and doesn't like to lie flat against the tub so it is constantly brushing you while you shower.

Exactly what they say it is.
Size: 72"W x 72"L (Pack of 1), Color: 1b. Clear-heavy
Appears to work exactly as advertised, and quality is very satisfactory, which is always a pleasant surprise on Amazon. Magnets are strong enough, plastic feels pliable and durable. Don't forget the rings aren't included.
