RASHEED WALLACE:
FULL SURFACE

Late night closing the new issue of KING and sleeping in early to make up for it explains why I missed this one. Peace 'sheed!

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!
