Above the Rim - Nahe dem Abgrund

Harlem, late spring, cracks in the pavement smell like melted gum. A sneaker squeaks on wet blacktop, then stops. A security guard watches through chain-link, hands full of unpaid bills. The one who made the rim famous now guards it. The brother who burned the rim now sells it. The one with the ball decides which rim to touch.
