Profi-basketball
Translation examples
Schon im Profi-Basketball war es schwer, das Team über das Individuum zu stellen; die Stars der Extremsportlerszene haben sich noch viel schneller vom antikommerziellen Ethos verabschiedet. Sie schließen Sponsoringverträge mit Modefirmen ab und treten in Fernsehsendungen auf, in denen ihre Heldentaten abgefeiert werden. Unterdessen kursieren im Netz Filmchen mit besonders aufsehenerregenden und selbstzerstörerischen Showeinlagen.
Professional basketball has a hard enough time maintaining a team ethic in the face of showboating and hotdogging antics on the court and off. Only heavy fines are enough to keep players thinking about team priorities, like actually winning games. Without any such disincentives, extreme sports stars soon disregarded the anticommercial ethos of their predecessors and began accepting lucrative sponsorships from clothing companies and appearing on television shows dedicated to chronicling their exploits.
