bball came way b4 streetball

back in the days where ballers were shooting soccer balls with two handed set shots into a peach basket that didnt have an opening at the bottom...unless u crazy that shit aint streetball!

im a "basketballer" first i play for high school teams, city teams, and i go to the y whenever i can to work on my game. the only time i play hardcore street is when im freestylin or just foolin around. but i have a pretty street styel in games, dunno where it comes from...maybe its all those hours playing pick up games or somethin

streetball dosent mean tricks and shyt,get ya mind right kidd,its called that because thats where it all started on the streets,its about makin way with wat u got and doin damn near anything jus to play ball...jus lik u said shootin in the peach baskets with no holes in the bottom
in the hood we would take a milk crate and cut the bottom out then put it on a telephone pole and play for hours in a alley or sumthin

i'd have to say that i'm both, you gotta be versatile when u play ball not just flashy and hard at times but smart..

Michael Jordan said 'talent wins games teamwork wins championships' so when i lace up on the hardwood i think about what he says and put all the flash aside and focus on the team effort.

When i'm on the blacktop i focus humiliating my opponent with jab-step and J or quicks-to-tha-bucket. If i break ankles then all the better for me but usually the D's pretty tight.

[MF44]

yea u gotta have both down,but when i answered i thought about wat i put my heart into and wat i started wit
im know for "basketball" not for streetball but i lik street better so that tells me that im doin my thing,if niggas is sain im raw as hell and im not doin wat i put m heart into 200% then i must be doin sumthin rite

Quick history lesson for u MF44 basketball was actually founded waaaaaay before streetball.

Basketball was actually founded on the principles of a game played by the ancient aztecs called pok-ta-pok where there were two teams but only one ring, the ring was vertical not horizontal and the losing team would be sacrificed to their god..

Just so ya know.
