There are great ballers in OKC. I once saw a team wearing Game Over gear called NEW CITY SPORTS. With ten seconds on the clock in the game, New City was down 8 points. First, a little point guard named Terrance Gaines stole an inbound pass and hit a three. Now they were down five when a cat named Micheal Parks makes another steal and hits the three. Now they are down two. Next another steal and Poncho Joseph drives to the basket for a three point play. GAME OVER! THIS ALL HAPPENED IN TEN SECONDS. NEW CITY COULD PLAY WITH THE BEST NYC COULD OFFER. |

I'm sorry, but Bone Collector is the nastiest street ball player now. If you watch the EBC tapes you will see what I'm talking about. In his first game he made someone fall, he is the nastiest . . . . . - Da Bronx, Holla at me!! |

I see that this site has a lot of Urban Legends from NY, but I have to give some respect to an entire court of balla's I saw this past summer in New Jersey. If you ever make a trip to Jersey, try and stop by a small town called Roselle. There's a small court uptown there they call Popular, and if you ever go there you'll understand why they call it that. It seems as if everyone there can fly and are extremely strong. And get this, no one is over 6'3". The second time I went I saw a guy name Dana catch a one hand dunk and tear a rim off an aluminium backboard, and he's only 6'1". So much love to Jersey! |

I once saw Jerry Stackhouse at The Golden Hoops catch an Alley-oop, kiss the ball, and then dunk it with two hands! Now, how's that for in your face? - Butch |

I once witnessed Ron "Terminator" M------ score 63 points in a Nickelodeon Pro League game while sippin' on beverages hidden in a brown paper bag during time-outs and half time. - Brooklyn, NY |

YO! What's up GO? DOC again coming back at you with another one. This is a story about the best two to ever play together, and that would be the 1-2 punch of Fes Academy. Who is DOC and Juice? We are the best thing since ice cream and cake, Batman and Robin, Bobby and Whitney, okay, maybe I went too far on the last one. Here is a West 4th story. One day my boy Juice had a game up there and I went to watch him do work. Juice is having a all right game killing as usual. Next thing you know I remember them calling time out right before the half and some of the guys on the team started talking about going to another game. A few of them ask me to play so they can go. So I agreed. When I went in the game I remember Kelly throwing me the ball and saying you got the point. First play down I throw a alley-oop to Juice coming base line. The second time down I throw one from half court that Juice caught on somebody. Now we had the crowd going crazy. We started to blow the team out. I throw in a quick 15 points and about 8 dimes. The game was real ugly at this point but we had 1 left for them. Me and Juice had a play called special. Juice would set up on the wing and I would be in the low post, Juice would drop the ball down to me, I would fake to the middle turn go back base and Juice would cut up the middle and I would throw a no look backwards alley-oop. But this time some kid jumped and Juice took it out of his hands and threw it on his head and that is our game over moment. The guy on the mic started yelling "Thats Game!, Thats Game!" and the crowd went crazy. Good thing it was only about 40 seconds left because they couldn't calm the crowd down. - Much Love to Game Over, DOC and Juice -- P.S. ask anybody that saw DOC and Juice play together on how tight we were. |

Pookie Wilson, if you never heard of him, listen up. Pookie was way ahead of his time. O nce went head to head with him in the Bronx. He got 41, I got 49. It was one of the best games I ever played. I was so hyped, I played at another level that night. From that night on Pookie's numbers went like this: 55,49,41,56,43, and on and on and on. The point is Pookie stayed at another level. The rest of us were only allowed to visit. R.I.P. Pookie, you brought out the best in me . . . "If only for one night". Game Over your site is bananas. Can't get enough. - JJ Uptown.

Yo, What's up Game Over. This is Mark Brown, A.K.A., DOC. Let's set the story. I agree on what the say about Fly Williams, he was the best to lace them up ever!!!!!! He is the king of Urban Legends, but I'm the Prince!!! Everybody has stories but nobody remembers who locked down the BRC after Fly did . . . D.O.C! Thats who. That's right. When I was 17 I did them dirty. Trust me on that. I was the one who started the between the leg DUNK. Ask somebody that was there, they saw it live at the best dunk contest New York ever had, the 1984 GOLDENHOOPS DUNK CONTEST. Where me and Bronx's own Chris Brook (50 inch verticle man) went head 2 head one crazy dunk after the other. It came down to 2 final dunks. He did a "DOMANIQUE" pump it down by his knees backwards dunk. I topped it with a bounce "DOMANIQUE" pump it by the knees backwards dunk. On his final dunk he came over to me and told me "this ones for you", and he went and did one of the most crazy dunks I have ever seen. He went baseline on the left side, jumped, tapped the ball on the left side of the glass, swung under the basket and Tomahawked on the right side of the rim. It was crazy! He came down and pointed at me! Then it was my turn and I only had one dunk that came close to that dunk so I went down in to left corner. I remember the noise they were making, still hyped from the Chris dunk , and my boy Dee Flowers voice in my ear. "Yo, you have to do "The Dunk" to beat him", I said "you think", and he said "I know", and I said "OK". I went baseline from the left, went up high, put the ball between my legs and dunked it so hard. The gym went crazy! People yelling, jumping . . . just madness. I came down and went over to where Chris Brooks was on the bench with a towel over his head. I picked it up and said "that ones for you!! He got up and said "you got it DOC. There's one story for you. GO all TRUE. - D.O.C., HALLA BACK |

Hey, my friends told my about your site and its the joint. Mike got his Butt Print shorts and here is my order for two.
We got into a goodie last night about the greatest streetball brothers. Our friend James tells us of the Marbury brothers. I was just in Junior High, but I saw the Cotton brothers, Lorenzo and Shea. Man, I'd put them on anyone that you or any of your readers can come up with. Lo could leap with anyone, and Shea, he'd kill you from outside. - Respect the Coast! - LA

I see my friend James wrote you guys about his Stephon Marbury - Shea Cotton story. Heard it so many times, I can tell you it myself. Only wish I had been there myself. We have some great basketball out here in the sunny part of the world, so don't think you have it all. I'm only 20, but I hear the East Coast stories all the time. Best baller I ever saw was this dude named Bone Collector up in San Francisco. Put the ball between this duds legs, from behind!, had it come back out in front of his man, crossback over him, and drove and laid it up. I saw your letters on him and let me say he's the best on either coast.
But I must say your site is right on with the truth and flavor of what we all love. Now send me my shorts so I can show Venice Beach how real ballers suit up.
- Peace - Mike in LA
