Well, it looks like Ben Wallace did attend the summer camp to teach kids basketball after all. Check out This article, and I especially liked this part:
A few players drained shots from 3-point range, others maneuvered through the defense with fancy dribbling and some dished out assists to their open teammates. After such moves, a number of kids would look for Wallace's praise, but the laid-back Detroit Pistons superstar just continued watching.It wasn't until a small teenager, with his oversized blue jersey draping around his shoulders, picked the pocket of another player and took the ball in for the uncontested score that Wallace broke a smile and nodded his head in approval to those around him.
Oooohhh man! That must have looked amazing!, all those little brats dribbling and draining 3 points, they should attend a loser training camp, like Jordan's or Kobe's.
Those kids should read this webpage, they would know that Ben cares about defense! Haha, chumps. I wish I could go to that summer camp, I'd reject all their shots into their faces and Ben would look at me with approval. But probably I'm too old.
Or not.
Haha, since I'd be like two or three feet taller than these kids, I'd snatch all the rebounds and slam dunk alley oops in their faces (Alley-Ooping is the only way real men score). Then I'd high five Ben and we would go out drinking and looking for hoes. Oh man that would be great. Man, I can't wait to fall asleep to dream about it.
Ok, I'll shut up. But just for today.
