Reebok ABCD Camp's Fiya-5
This is the first installment of our report from the Reedbok ABCD. We're only going to talk about the kids we paid to see, so if you e-mail us talking some shit like "you ain't talk about so and so," your monkey ass shoulda paid for us to attend all those games. We ain't get no press passes and we had to pay to get up in that muhfucka. That dude at the media office was like "A fire-starter? What is that exactly?" I just started counting my money right there, because I knew this shit was coming out the pocket. Wack! Here's our first installment of scouting reports...
O.J. Mayo (2007): He's so good he was bored. I'm not one to penalize this kid for not pushing himself to play his best when he's matched against kids that just can't physically handle him. Besides, he's led his team to an undefeated record. Mayo is so explosive in the open court in relation to the other players on the floor that it doesn't even look real, and it's not like these other kids are slow. He looks like a damn cheetah chasing down an antelope. Everything you've heard about him is true: handles, effortless jump shot and incredible court vision. I know that there is supposed to be some debate as to who is #1 in the 2007, as many analysts have manufactured that conversation, putting Derrick Rose and Kevin Love on the same level as Mayo, but let's just cut the shit right now: O.J. Mayo is without peer on the high school level. Period. Brandon Jennings (2008): He was the best PG at the camp. Anthony Crater was close, but no one was really fucking with this kid. He's one of the ball-handling wiz kids that just catches your eye. When he's on the floor, it's hard to watch anyone else. With his handles, speed, quickness and superior basketball IQ, he looks to be the next Chris Paul. Bill Walker (2007): You may know him as O.J. Mayo's friend and high school teammate, but let me tell you something about Mr. Walker that you no doubt already know: THIS NIGGA CAN JUMP LIKE SHIT!!!! DAMN!!! It's not even like he was doing crazy dunks or anything, but he gets off the floor so fucking fast that you'd swear he got rocket boosters for calves. Kevin Love (2007): He's so fundamentally sound the shit makes you sick. Watching Love's big slow ass is like watching an old ass man play pickup against some dumb ass kids. Love thinks the game beautifully. He does everything well, as if basketball is his entire life. I ain't hating or nothing, but I see some Todd Marinovich in this kid. Derrick Rose (2007): In all fairness to Rose, he cooked his ankle all up on the first day and he wasn't right for the rest of the weekend. He even had to sit out of Friday's much-anticipated matchup versus Mayo. That seemed to disappoint all of the grown ass men in attendance, including well-known college coaches, who were acting like little disappointed bitches. That said, he was still pretty impressive. His handle and vision are the aspects of his game that really stand out. He made several passes that seemed difficult look really easy. I would have liked to have seen him at 100%, because he was still incredibly fast. The only thing he has over Mayo is passing and defense. This bamma is pressed to play D. He had some lil' guard making that face a nigga make when you D 'em up too much...you know, that Bruce Bowen shit. *Lookout for the recap of the All-Star games we had to pay for, later on this week.
