Just found this on the ESPN TV Listings. Get your tapes ready... This could be the time to see if Lebron is going to be a star or a bust... 12/12 ESPN2 PROGRESSIVE HIGH SCHOOL CLASSIC BASKETBALL OAK HILL ACADEMY VS. ST. VINCENT - ST. MARY'S CONVOCATION CENTER CLEVELAND, OH USA 7:30 pm to 9:30 pm (ET)
i'll definitely be watching, have to see what all the hype is about. isn't oak hill academy a perennially badass high school program?
I hope this is sarcastic, because it would be dumb to judge a kid by one HS game, or even a full season in the NBA as a rookie. Oak Hill is a prep school in Virginia where the whole basketball team is basically recruited. They have some kid from Nigeria, they had Diop from Senegal, etc. Also top players from around the nation want to play there because the school gets alot of exposure and the starting 5 will be D-I along with most of the other players. It's sort of a boarding school because the players live there, so all they have to focus on is basketball and school.
i been outside the school., its about 50 miles from my place, but the game they had that day was sold out. DAMN
Steve Blake, the PG for Maryland, went there, and DeSagna Diop, the big bust for the Cavs, went there. Did Jalen Rose go there, too, I would've sworn he did but now I'm not sure.
