i think all the and1 playas should be legends. they tried out for and1 and got it that mean they got skillz and don't tell me they got shut down in rucker they played good there and i mean it

In my eyes legends are ppl like Goat, Destroyer, Skip, Pee Wee, Hook, Julius, Tiny, Booger, Fly, Bone, Alimoe, and few others. Why ? Couse they have some fundamentals, one of them better, the others little less, but are real ballers not just trick ballers and entertainers. They can play or was played for real, they are fight for respect in real games not only in some show. Don't make me wrong I love tricks, dunks and other spectacular moves but streetball it is still basketball, you've got my respect when you trick on me and get some point and not only trick on me and lose ball or get bloked or stole. Streetball is not only tricks and dunks how many ppl thinks today, this is also play like in Nike Battleground, when you fight for every piece of the playground, when you play with heart. It is a game when you can lokk into the mirror and say I do evrything what I can he was better. That's the real game for me and ppl who play like that are true legends to me.

Hot Sauce aint garbage. He is one of this era's greatest streetballers and maybe one of the greatest ever. People diss him like some people diss the Professor, because hes got fame.

In My opinion HS is the greatest entertainer, who change for good style of streetball game but personally he don't reach anything. Is he win some streetball league championship like, Main Event, 1/2 Man 1/2 Amazing ? Did he play in some basketball leagues like AO, High Octaine, Prime Objective ? He was created and popularized tricks, like he said about himself, he's just an entertainer, that's all, he's doing his things and And 1 gave hin an opportunity. You know everywhere, where are cameras is popularity, but without it everything's change. That's how I see HS. He is a fan favourite and great entertainer but not true streetball legend, because for this you must reach something more.

Did Main Event, 1/2 Man 1/2 Amazing, AO, High Octaine, Prime Objective play in any real basketball leagues. Did they even make their high school teams? can they dribble the ball down the court without a real ref calling a travel or palming or a double dribble? Could they control the ball without getting it stolen against people who actually try to play defense?

Main Event, 1/2 Man 1/2 Amazing, AO, High Octaine, Prime Objective did play in leagues come on you should watch more mixtapes you'll see some of them playing in hs and destroying their opponents

Well that is good to know. But obviously they weren't good enough to do anything in college, that is if they even made it that far. I watch the And One Tour and it makes me sick. Nobody plays defense. Anybody could do anything they wanted, and score anytime they wanted, if their opponants didn't play defense.

I don't wanna write anymore. I'm little tired, everything is on my page, but unfortunately in Polish So they was played in some leagues, what did HS do ? Only make a show, that's all. I repeat it again he's an entartainer good of course, but that's it. His doing his thang and this is good. But streetball legends must show something more don't you think ? Like I said streetball it's not only a show it's a hard game too, and if you win with style then you've got respect on the playground, simple old rule.

Wow it's good to know that they played in some premier Jungle Ball Leagues. And wow some even played some college ball. To bad most people have never heard of the colleges they played for, let alone all those stupid Jungle Ball teams they played for, I say Jungle Ball you however would say streetball. I like to call it jungle ball because that is what it looks like. No rules and nobody playing defense so that the stars can do stupid moves like pulling their opponants shirt over their head. None of these players can make it in real basketball.
