I don't usually see many theads like this. Maybe you can share the story as how you got them also.
I have about 14 edgerrin james game jeraesy.
But for basketball my senior year they invited me to play, with 15-20 other players from Texas, against the rockets. It was just a charity thing but it was great
I ended up with these 2. For comparison I'm 6 foot 2 or 3 and they both go below my knees. Not even my college practice jersey is anywhere close to them.
It was pretty neat. We had some of the best high school players on our team. Future NBA players etc and if they (the NBA guys) wanted to, they could have stopped us from ever getting the ball across halfcourt. The main things i remember from our team was Gerald Green could legit fly. It was a different kinda flying, he would just glide. I don't know if anyone remembers Ebi but he was clearly the best high schooler but 100% reminded me of boobie miles. So much natural talent but when you got in his head it was over, he was done.
The coolest was making it to the NCAA tourney and nearly pulling off a 15 vs 2 upset. We played Wisconsin when they had Arlando Tucker and were up 3 with like 3 min left in the game but then their press finally broke us and we lost by i dont even remember how many. Our best player, Chris Daniels, is a pretty big star in the Philippines where he plays and we had another guy namedKevin who's sister was Swin Cash of the WNBA.
I also played on a Fort Worth Texas League team with a guy named Ivan Johnson who played for the Hawks for like 3-4 years but is most famous for being permanently banned from 2 leagues overseas for threatening the refs and the commissioners.
I've got tons of stories for days. I was just good enough to be useful but not good enough to be needed if that makes sense.
