I have a great summer basketball league 15 minutes from my house; the Jersey Shore Basketball League. It's a league that consists of very good high school players, D1 players, Americans playing overseas, and the occasional NBA player.
Last year, I had the opportunity to hang out with Samuel Dalembert after a game for 10 minutes, just shooting the shit with him. Tonight, Krupinski and I went to a game and Brevin Knight played in the second game. Obviously he was quick as hell, and played extremely well; but the cool part was after the game. We were shooting around with some guys (Randy Foye's cousin) and Knight came out. He was friends with the guys we were shooting with, and we had the opportunity to talk to Knight after the game. He was a very cool guy, down to earth, and talked to us for a bit about basketball and his future. He's currently in negoitation with the Clippers. He'd be a great fit for them.
If anyone has the chance to come down for a game, let me or Krupinski know, and we'll definitely meet up. It's in Belmar.

I have wanted Detroit to get him the past few seasons to be their backup. Guy can definitely distribute the ball very well and play great defense. Hopefully they close it out and he signs soon.

Yea Knight was pretty legit. His speed was incredible and he definitely loves the highschool 3pt line. The league is great, Reilly and I try and go at least once a week and watch 2 games. Knight is playing on the defending champs team which consists of mostly former top ivy league players. Reilly and I want to put a team into the league next year....what do you think Aaron I think we can steal Knight away and sign Foye while we are at it
