Two years ago, the NBA made $3.8 billion. We have patent pending protection for 4-man full-court basketball, and we expect we will ultimately get world rights for 4-player full-court basketball. We are planning a 4-on-4 full court tournament.
Four-man full-court is a faster game. NBA players are huge. The average height in the NBA is 6’ 7”. Players have been as tall as 7’ 7”. These giant men spread their wingspans, blocking drives to the basket and the passing lanes, which slows down the game.
In addition, today's players are all much better ball-handlers than the players of old. They start younger and have much better open court skills.
Our 4-man game will enable the four-corner offense, which means that the driving lanes to the basket and passing lanes will always be open. Individual offensive talent can shine again—as much as team play already does.
The four-man game will enable the “run and gun” fast break style that everyone loves, making basketball more exciting. It’s a feature that will make 4ball games uniquely marketable. Every game will be Phi Slama Jama and Showtime again.
Great new offensive and defensive coaching strategies will need to be invented. Today, the average NBA game has less than 100 points per team. In 4BallUSA games the average score for each team should routinely be over 100 points.
With wide open basketball, there will be more dunks, alley oops, fast breaks, and more scoring. That’s why we have patent pending protection to increase the size of the court or to decrease the number of players on each side.
We are looking to form leagues, create organizations, do exhibitions, hold charity events, and see 4-man basketball games played.
Dr. Jeffrey Schwartz, who is 6’ 8”, and I (6’ 4”), both amateur basketball players, were working on a life-saving medical patent with our intellectual property attorney when we looked at basketball patents because of the NBA lockout. Our lawyer also happens to love basketball. That’s how we came up with the idea of getting a patent for a new professional 4-on-4 basketball league as well as pending trademark protection.
Jeff Schwartz and I graduated from Northwestern University in 1980, went to different medical schools, and then met up again when both of us completed the University of Illinois Affiliated Hospitals Emergency Medicine Residency Program. We have played basketball in gyms all around Chicago.
We’d like to develop a 4-man full-court professional basketball league or tournament, as we believe that ultimately the solution to the NBA Lockout is a new league.
With more 24-hour cable and Internet sports channels than ever before, there is a need for more sports highlights than ever before. 4BallUSA, with its wide open style of basketball could fill that void, as well as the emptiness caused by the lack of NBA games. In fact, with ROKU and iTV, we could even create our own TV station. And there are 400 cable channels we can talk to.
We want to connect with agents, players, entrepreneurs, businessmen, and investors to work with us. I look forward to hearing from you.

Billy Hunter Suggests Starting a New Basketball League
Two newspapers have carried stories saying that Billy Hunter, the National Basketball Players Association Executive Director, has suggested started a new professional basketball league.
We agree!
Start a new league of 4-on-4 full court basketball league. It will speed up the game and make more highlights happen! More dunks! More fast-breaks!
Here is the USA Today article:
http://content.usatoday.com/communities/gameon/post/2011/11/billy-hunter-talks-of-nba-players-starting-their-own-league/1
And here is the LA Times article:
http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/sports_blog/2011/11/nba-lockout-bill-hunter-suggests-players-start-their-own-league.html?utm_sou
Amare' Stoudemire and Dwayne Wade were mentioned in the articles. It's important to note that the NBA Player's Union has now apparently disbanded, so it's more up to the individual players to take charge than ever before.

The Solution to the NBA Lockout is a New Four-Man Basketball League
News Release. Florida (4BallUSA.com) November 14th, 2011
Introduction
4BallUSA.com℠ is seeking to start a new four-man professional basketball league. Two physicians, who were amateur basketball players, got the idea because of the NBA lockout featuring the NBA owners and Commissioner David Stern versus the National Basketball Players Association.
Summary
4BallUSA.com℠ is seeking to start a new four-man professional basketball league. Two physicians, both amateur basketball players, came up with the idea because of the NBA Lockout while they were working on a life-saving medical patent. A new basketball league with patent pending protection could break the NBA’s monopoly-like control over professional basketball in the USA.
Press Release November 14, 2011
NBA players are huge. The average height in the NBA is 6’ 7”. Players have been as tall as 7’ 7”. These giant men crowd the court and slow down the game.
More room for basketball players during basketball games would open up the game for the “run and gun” style of basketball, making basketball more exciting.
The two doctors have patent pending protection to increase the size of the court or to decrease the number of players on each side. They discussed the idea with their Intellectual Property attorney, who also happens to love basketball.
“With more wide open basketball, such as four-on-four full court, there will be more dunks, more fast breaks, and more scoring,” said Dr. Hennenfent, a former high school basketball player (Hennenfent.com).
“Our patent pending protection and pending trademark protection will enable four-on-four basketball leagues to be formed, organizations to be created, exhibitions to be done, charity events to be held, and basketball games to be played on a commercial basis,” wrote Dr. Hennenfent in an email.
“If the National Basketball Players Association had a league of their own, which they could organize and run independently of the current NBA owners, they might have far more leverage in lockout negotiations,” said Dr. Jeffrey Schwartz, a 6’ 8” recreational league basketball player.
“Retired NBA players interested in business or entrepreneurship could run the league and play in the league,” suggested Dr. Hennenfent (BballTalk.com).
The two doctors have noticed that with more 24-hour cable and Internet sports channels than ever before, there is a need for more sports highlights than ever before. 4BallUSA, with its wide open style of basketball could fill that void.
The two doctors graduated from Northwestern University, went to different medical schools, and then met up again when they both completed the University of Illinois Affiliated Hospitals Emergency Medicine Residency Program.
They are also excited about the medical patent they have in the works, which they will be able to make public in a month, and about which Dr. Hennenfent likes to say, “It could save more lives than penicillin if instituted properly.”

Why We Need Four-Man Basketball
NBA players are huge today. The average height in the NBA is 6’ 7”. Players are as tall as 7’ 7”. These giant men also have giant wingspans and crowd the court and slow down the game.
When you bring the ball up the court as a guard you face a three man defensive front when playing 5-on-5. In 4-on-4 basketball the offense can be spread out to all four corners and the passing lanes and the lane to the basket will be open more often.
We need more room for basketball players to open up the game for the “run and gun” style of basketball again. We need more excitement. That’s why we have patent pending protection to increase the size of the court or to decrease the number of players on each side.
With wide open basketball, such as four-on-four full court, there will be more dunks, more fast breaks, and more scoring.
Our patent pending protection and pending trademark protection will enable four-man basketball leagues to be formed, organizations to be created, exhibitions to be done, charity events to be held, and “four ball” games to be played.
If you are a businessman, investor, venture capitalist, or basketball player, please contact me for more information.
