GOD SHAMMGOD:
HE WILL CRACK YOU
Found this old video of God ShamMgod busting ankles during tournement time. He's been on my mind for a while. Every year around tourney time I think of five guys I totally forget the rest of the year. Shammgod is different though. I remember his moves off the dribble so vividly. My boss, Jermaine Hall, went to high school with Shamm at La Salle for a minute. Alan Paul, big contributor to SLAM over the years, wrote about the former Providence point guard's post-NBA journey for the SLAM website:

Shammgod is overseas now but, he signed with the Portland team in the IBL, a new American pro spring league. Last summer he showed up at KINGDOME and a thick crowd cheered on as the Brooklyn native took few prisoners. He is a full-blown playground legend.

KEITH SMART:
QUICK RELEASE
Long day. I've got a few seconds before my eyes are closed and about 2 hours before I pick myself off the floor from falling from this computer chair. Throwing this one up for the NCAA heads, big shout out to Caoch Chris Caputo and George Mason, there is always next year!
This was always a favorite of mine!

MARKO MILIC:
KID'S GOT HOPS
Believe it or not, a good number of guys from Europe don't stick in the NBA. Marko Milic, for example, is one of those guys. Though the 76ers took him in the second round of the 1997 draft and he has the hang time of a hawk, he played in only 44 games over two years in the NBA, career average of 2.5 points. I think he's playing in Spain right now. This is a dope clip of his skills.
