If we could see one Streetball vs NBA matchup, it would be the blazing speed and
chop of Nate Robinson against the mesmerizing handles of the Bone Collector. Bone
did not play in NYC in 2008, while Nate made some appearances last summer. If
anybody knows, what’s up with Bone? In Bounce Edition #10, there was a strong feature on Bone where the Collector said, ” No one can guard me.” Larry “Smooth”
Hughes got it out in Saint Louis a few years ago when Bone threw the ball through
his legs and watched Larry do a complete 180, looking for the rock. While Bone is notorious for the now-you-see-it-now-you-don’t handles, Nate’s blazing hand and
foot speed with the ball is equally dangerous. Who do you think would get the
most talked about move and win the overall battle?
CEO DJ Bobbito “Cucumber Slice” Garcia is coming soon to give the official breakdown on the new winter issue so think of this entry as the underground act before the headliner hits the roof tops. In issue 17’s Street Dogma piece – Man vs Zone, I walked into 145th Street and Lenox Avenue’s Colonel Young Park numb on the fact that the zone defense is being targeted for elimination by some of the tournaments here in New York City. In issue 18, the argument for the zone (Man vs Zone II) hits the pages with some real interesting things said about Bone Collector. Check the latest edition and see what was said. In the meantime, our Editor at Large – Jesse “Fadeaway” Washington’s favorite rapper, Jay Z, is featured on Linkin Park’s “Numb” remix as we wait for your favorite DJ to place the wax down and list the next episode of Bounce…from the playground.
