    Ihad the same problem while in the military. They don’t think you can play. They assume you don’t have the skills. Also, they like to shoot, not pass. They don’t pass much to each other.

    Listen, I’m not black, but If I had to guess, it’s probably because they don’t respect you as a player. I don’t think it has anything to do with race. If I had a guy on my team that could consistently drop the 3’s (and help the team win), I wouldn’t care if he was green.

    They naturally assume you can’t jump.

    Don’t feel sorry for yourself! Work for the ball. Play hard and get the ball. Make something happen and then your chances of getting the rock will be increased. You might also want to screen for the other players to help them. This too might help you get ‘your touches.’

    You suck. The only time you get the ball is when your open, because most of you guys can shoot. Other than that, you suck.

    Black people are very capable of being prejudice just as much as white people Maybe they feel you are ‘moving in on their turf’ Basketball is however a sport that is dominated by black men. Try asking why they are not passing to you. If they give you an attitude you might want to consider finding another of players to pracice with.
