One night after LeBron James declared that "being black in America is tough," an elite basketball team from New Jersey that discovered this the hard way 64 years ago will be inducted into Seton Hall's athletics Hall of Fame.
James' powerful comments after a racist slur -- the N-word, according to news reports -- was spray painted on the front of his Los Angeles home dominated the headlines heading into Game 1 of the NBA Finals. You want to separate sports from the "real world?" Well, tell that to James, who had to face this hateful crime before his biggest game of the season.
