The NBA has announced the teams to compete in the "Hoop It Up" challenge. Each team will have a current NBA player, WNBA player, a former NBA player and a celebrity representing a certain city. The Cities are L.A., Philly, an international team and my favorite city, H-Town. Here are the players. (P-player, W-WNBA, F-former player, C-celebrity) L.A. P- Derek Fisher W- Lisa Leslie F- Magic Johnson C- Brian McKnight (singer) Philly P- Aaron McKie W- Dawn Staley F- Moses Malone C- Justin Timberlake (N*Stync) International Team P- Hido Turkoglu W- Ticha Penicheiro F- Sarunas Marciulionis C- Tom Cavanagh Houston P- Cuttino Mobley W- Tina Thompson F- Kenny Smith (No Glide or CB4) C- Jamie Foxx I hope we take it.

I think either Houston or LA will win this thing. The international team has a chance... but I think Philly has no chance at all...
Houston/LA head to head NBA - Houston. Despite criticism Cat is the better player. WNBA - Houston. Tina Thompson is very capable of outplaying leslie. Former - LA. Magic will not be beat by Kenny. Celebrity - Houston. Jamie Foxx seems like he would be the better ball player.
