If so, post pictures of you in action/with team. Katpak head allowed.

I did not play AAU ball, but I did play 7th and 8th grade hoops. AHMS ftw

Here's a picture of me jumping over my bro in 8th grade to dunk on an 8 1/2 goal

i blocked a guy's shot one time so hard that the ball hit the brick wall in the gym and made a really loud bang. Pretty sure that a baby started crying after that.

Ben is going to show up and tell you exactly who he played for and make you feel stupid!

OK_Cat · « **Reply #5 on:** May 28, 2010, 08:31:15 PM »

With Ben's outstanding post history, I have zero reason to doubt him. Just wanna see a pic of the dude in action. (preferably a breakaway layup or dunk)

Get ready for multiple pics of Ben raining 3's over a zone.

Played PAL ball at Oakland Community Center in Topeka. Once made two 3-pointers in a row.

Pffft... Oakland. I don't speak Spanish. North Y was the place to be.

I never played AAU ball, but currently live in DC assault territory. Ironically, Gary Williams hosts his radio show at the BWW down the street a veces. It's like he has no idea.

Go down there and !pineapple! ice the ever living crap out of him.

I played AAU ball a bit. My action shots consist of me sitting on a bench. My high point total is something like 7. Goron Dragic'd a couple games though, if you compare scoring 26 points in the 4th to me scoring 5 in like a minute and a half.

Totally intending to WAMMY tag his car this year (although I'm horrible about following through on stuff, so we'll see how that work's out).

Any of you KC folk play CYO?

Stevesie60 · « **Reply #15 on:** May 28, 2010, 09:52:05 PM »

Means Ben is from Topeka, I doubt he played in AAU. And I don't even remember him playing in middle school, but I'll check my sources.

I was under the impression that everyone that hung out on the basketball board had either had D1 careers, or had coached in a BCS conference (or the A-10)...

CNS · « **Reply #17 on:** May 28, 2010, 10:35:49 PM »

Practiced with KC Running Rebels two off seasons. Never played in a game. Earl Watson was there at that time. Practice scrimmages were insane.

I don't think the Beloit summer league was AAU affiliated.

North Y, Downtown Y, Crestview Rec Center, Garfield Rec Center, Washburn Summer League (Whiting rocked). You name a podunk gym in T-Town, I've played ball there.

Absolutely no AAU ball though, look at my freakin user name for crap's sake!

Sure did. Played for the Grind and Grunt back in the day. I'd post pictures but they were all lost in a tornado -- long story.

AAU Track . . . went to the National Meet at Notre Dame . . . walked out on to the football field and everything.

Barton County Community College league- Went all Jason Williams like. ( white JW). Scored 26 pts and hit a buzzer beater 3 to send it to overtime over arguably the best player in the league. An Epic battle between Him and I. My team eventually got the win.
