The Lady Mustangs pose for a flick after entertaining the crowd at ‘55th.
I stopped over at the Entertainer’s Basketball Classic on Monday night to show my fellow “ball girls” some love, and the game I caught definitely lived up to the “E” in its billing. The ladies’ took their turn on the hallowed court to give a good sized Harlem crowd something to “ooh” and “aah” about.
On this night, Guess Who? rocking the purple/gold uni’s took on a stacked Lady Mustangs squad donning independence white/red/blue. From jump ball, both teams showed off their skills in the front and backcourt. To quote MSG’s main man Clyde Frazier, “There was an array of dishing and swishing,” early in this contest. One of the best parts of the game was the point guard battle between GW’s Tylesha Brown and LM’s Zetta “The Show-Off” Martin. These women went at it, getting I-so after I-so to do their thing. It got so heated that even the crowd started demanding clear outs for them.
Miss Brown nearly had the battle won until Zetta busted an in-game “Slip ‘N Slide” on the fastbreak, then dished to her homegirl for the bucket. The park went crazy after that! Guess Who? fought to stay in it behind the strong inside play of La’Nice Kibler, but it just wasn’t enough. Lady ’stangs win.
Everyone in attendance definitely enjoyed themselves. Shout out to my homies Maria “E=MC2″ Clifton, Milani “M&M” Malik, Sharice “Bounty Killer” George, Adia a.k.a “Miss Brand New”, and the rest of the crew, as well as the ladies of Guess Who? Also, I’d like to send some real NYC playground love to the kids from Memphis, TN that stopped through. Peace!
