This tournament (EBC) is the only tournament that any NBA player wants to play in. We all grew up either wanting to play in the Rucker or just go to watch something special. What yall may not understand is that the EBC is the biggest streetball tourney in the world. It's the lock that keeps NYC on top of the streetball world. All NBA players wants to play in the EBC. They definitely are not coming out to NY to play anywhere else except maybe Pro-City at Hunter College. All them other tourneys don't mean "jack-squat" to NBA players. If you want to see these NBA players come out, then yall gotta support the tourney that will bring these players to NYC which is the "EBC" point blank period. And when ballers say ain't nothing like playin in the NYC summer league, they mean the "EBC". The president Bill Clinton was there along with NBA commissioner David Stern. R U Serious? NY is willing to let this go, thats crazy. One reason why these NBA players don’t come to NYC is because the EBC is constantly being down-played as a washed-up tournament.

That's like Yao. He is immensely talented for such a big guy. Omar Cook coming back after signing that well deserved contract. N.B.A. you guys are stupid for that miss. Kevin Ollie seriously(hiccups). Even Lindsey Hunter could mentor from the sideline. I heard Allan Houston is giving in another shot. I'm suprised Reggie Miller isn't back. All the young talent that is wasted in some league they shouldn't. It's a travesty. A lot of fans don't know all the talent that's missed out on yearly. You can make anybody a star in today's media. Man for a second you would have thought Hot Sauce created Streetball and was the best player ever. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL. Let me not forget Yi Jinlain. That’s like Yao.

In time some legitimate pros will come out. Beasley, Brandon Jennings coming out last yr was pretty big. Believe if Kemba,Sosa and a few other make it. They'll be out to play. It has to come from the networking circles. I'm pretty sure If Gil hadn't got hurt he'd play. Chris Paul would come out. Steve Nash would play. The pros will come out. They love NYC to much not to. Dre Barret alone coming back to play is pretty big. I think he'd be a hell of a back up guard in the league. Smush playing every summer is big. Ron Ron/Al Harrington/ If Skip,Charlie,Ben Gordon,R.Foye,Will Bynum,JR Smith,F.Garcia,Q.Douby,E.Clark just to name a few played a few games each summer. We'd be in great company. The players around. It's just giving them a roster spot and not having them all on 1 team. There are some players in the league from NY who could bring H.O.F. talent out to the parks and tournaments if they wanted. Trust Me. If they bring them to clubs they'll come to the games. Last yr alone i could tell 5 legimate pros wanted to play in NY scene. N.Robinson is hella big coming out. Will Bynum/Sheron Collins would come out. E.Maynor & CJ Miles wanted to hoop. Durant would lace them up. Call & ask the right ones. Hell someone know W.Wesley # LOL. He'd bring out Jordan and Isiah & Lebron/A.I. Now. Then what. I'd probably faint. LOL. For the love of the game. Anything is possible. I think everything comes full circle.

It sure didn't seem to affect Jerry Stackhouse or Jason Richardson after they had bad street games. So called "street" players are mostly former div 1 players or was recruited and didn't go for whatever reason. They question is, can a streetball player do it on a regular basis?
