Any member of any team in the National Basketball Association who is lacking the requisite athleticism one might usually expect from a hoopster who is earning a salary that could feed a third-world nation. The term is derived from the NBA's "plumber's era" (1988-1995) when expansion teams diluted the talent pool in such a manner that fans would complain that perhaps these ballers were not pulled from blueblood college programs or elite overseas leagues, but rather the owners were attempting to pass-off (no pun intended) members of a blue-collar profession such as plumbing as actual star performers.
You can't blame LeBron James for not winning more rings than Michael Jordan, he always had to carry a team full of plumbers!

A derogatory term used to describe a white basketball player. The term Presumes that the white basketball player is unathletic and inferior in skill and basketball ability. The term was once invented to describe an era in the 50s where a basketball players minimum salary required them to work a second job to make ends meet. However the term plumber has since evolved/devolved to describe a white player in any era, including the modern NBA.

Like a spin doctor, but completely without a soul. A spin plumber will dig up shit to defend a politician that a spin doctor with a modicum of human decency will not touch with a ten-foot pole.

When an especially adventuresome young lady rams her fist up your ass for a nice relaxing Reem job and wacks your wang at the same time until you spooge, and then suddenly yanks her hand out, cleaning both front and rear plumbing in one go.
Wow, no need to go to hydrotherapy this week, Courtney gave me a really great Plumber's Helper last night while we were watching the playoffs....
