520 Boston, 1992. David Greenfeld is one of the few white kids
at the Martin Luther King, Jr., Middle School. Everybody
clowns him, girls ignore him, and his hippie parents won't
even buy him a pair of Nikes, let alone transfer him to a
private school. Unless he tests into the city's best
public high school--which, if practice tests are any
indication, isn't likely--he'll be friendless for the
foreseeable future. Nobody's more surprised than Dave when
Marlon Wellings sticks up for him in the school cafeteria.
Mar's a loner from the public housing project on the
corner of Dave's own gentrifying block, and he confounds
Dave's assumptions about black culture: He's nerdy and
neurotic, a Celtics obsessive whose favorite player is the
gawky, white Larry Bird. Before long, Mar's coming over to
Dave's house every afternoon to watch vintage basketball
tapes and plot their hustle to Harvard. But as Dave
welcomes his new best friend into his world, he realizes
how little he knows about Mar's. Cracks gradually form in
their relationship, and Dave starts to become aware of the
breaks he's been given--and that Mar has not.--Provided by
