Today I woke up early in the morning. I smelled the fresh smog filled air that makes Southern California so famous. I rubbed my eyes to further wake myself up. Then I slowly made my way down the stairs to check box scores and news on what happened in the basketball world the previous day on my laptop. As I flipped the power switch on and waited shortly for my computer to boot up I began to think. Over the years I've watched numerous athletes play the game of basketball and never took the time to… Continue
Just yesterday Brandon Jennings put up 55 points with 29 in the third quarter. Tyreke Evans is putting up 16.8 points per contest and college basketball has just begun. Sorry for the switch from pros to student athletes but basketball h… Continue

My boy Marcus aka "Mgrads" created this documentary style piece on Jham and has been making these pieces throughout the year. Marcus also tells me that Jordan's younger brother Isaac will be the number 1 player by the time he is a senior.....I seen the kid play and he is like a mini Jham already, looks like him, dribbles, shoots, and plays like him. It's a pretty scary thought that this Hamilton is a split image of the brother that will be a lottery pick in next year's draft.… Continue

Jordin Mayes of Westchester high school stands at 6'2 and has one of the cleanest shots I've seen out of the class of 2010. He helped alongside dwayne polee and dominique oconnor, lead Westchester to a state championship in California last year. Jordin hasn't committed yet but is in the running for mr basketball for california. Continue
Yesterday the greatest basketball player to ever play the game was inducted into the NBA Hall of Fame. The man who single handedly changed the game as we know it. The man who changed the way basketball players dressed on and off the court. The man who carried a swagger never before seen on the hardwood. That man was Michael Jordan.
Jordan is being criticized heavily for a speech he gave in which he did cry before he gave his speech. In which he did not "mention" certain people enough. In which… Continue
Jeremy Tyler- 6'10 would be senior in high school made headlines when he decided to turn pro in Israel in order to get better and play amongst men instead of high school kids. His reason was simple, he said he was "bored" of high school competition and the constant shaq treatment.
Many are doubting that he can make the transition and still be a top pick in 2 years for the NBA draft. We highly doubt this will drop his draft stock and think he will do well out there, his double… Continue

You’ve heard plenty about point guards coming up from the Brooklyn streets. But no one’s story is quite like Booger Smith’s.

First, from NOYZ: “It was the night of May 6, and hell was breaking out all over the courts of the NBA. Ron Artest ran after Kobe and got thrown out of the Lakers-Rockets game. Lamar Odom was yapping up a storm in the same game and caught a tech. Over in the East, Rafer Alston slapped Eddie House in the head, earning a one game suspension… Continue

The camp was the Pangos-All-American camp and the talent was heavy, so here finally are the top plays of the entire 3 day camp. My favorite would have to be Deonte Burton's full reachback alley oop dunk in the Cream of the Crop top 45 game. Deonte will have a mix coming this summer, he's been quite the sleeper and we will definitely be watching for him. Check out the long list of players which I cannot write down at the moment because....well its quite long. I did however use… Continue
JT Terrell lit up the Pangos All American Camp with his arsenal of ballhandling, jumpshot, 3 point shot, and athletic ability. He was awarded with the MVP of the Cream of the Crop game at the end of the camp. This game consisted of the camps top 20 players. Terrell attended last year, but did not have the type of impact of this year, that itself shows the amount of work he has put in over a years time. Check our main youtube channel soon for an official ballislife mix of Terre… Continue
Harrison Barnes came to Long Beach, Ca this past weekend to see what the Pangos All American Camp was all about. He left with the Most Outstanding Player award and 26 points in the Cream of the Crop top 20 game. Many of the top scouting services have him as the no. 1 overall player and we definitely could see why. His all around game will not blow you away, but he will silently making you feel his presence and wow you with his high basketball iq and hard play. This is the sec… Continue

The Pangos All-American Camp presented by Pit Bull Energy drink is now over. With many players from out of state to go with some of the best in California they came out to play on the second/last day. We seen Will Barton destroy whenever he had the chance and hit us up with a huge shout-out. He also gave us some great plays in which he called out before the game even occurred(They will come soon). Kendall Williams came out on Saturday, did his thing, then came back ou… Continue
I think Brandon Jennings and Tyreke Evans will be co-ROY...Like Grant Hill and J-Kidd were back in the day. Both are playing great and carrying there teams to wins. So far its hard to argue against them both winning it imo.
Stats:
Tyreke
18.8 po...
You gotta consider Melo for MVP, I also like Durant but his team isnt good enough right now... also you always gotta put kobe, lebron, nash up there as well(maybe wade, who should of won it last year imo). But for me its way to early to tell.
Black bag with white print.
