Too religious for the NBA?

I don't think the NBA will be anti-religious enough to kiss off devout Christian fans. The great thing about America is that everybody's dollars are the same color, so to speak.

I don't understand the premise of this article or at least I hope I don't understand it. Why waste ink on questioning whether an individual's strong religious convictions could hurt the team? The answer is obvious, it can't hurt and will probably help.
Now, a more appropriate topic would be, does the gangster lifestyle that so many of the NBA players have adopted as their spiritual foundation hurt the team. I guess that answer is obvious too. Probably best not to ask such inflammatory questions.

I was thinking the article would go the black muslem route. Silly me. Christianity is the great worry here.

Please remind me we're in the United States of America. Sometimes it's very hard to believe.
