I posted a couple videos in the JaVale and Nick threads, but we might as well have a consolidation thread for offseason highlights and videos. And other happenings.

The Goodman vs Drew League tilt features a number of Wiz players, this should be good.

Goodman League's roster looks a little better, even though Drew League's roster isn't finalized yet.

I really hope they show this game on TV! Many will tune in.

Does anybody know if you have to buy tickets to get in, or is it free admission? The game's at Coolidge High (my mom's old school).

This is just a different cut of the same Julius Hodge v Wall highlights we've all seen, but I like how this one is put together.

Austin Rivers at athe NC Pro-Am clip below. I really think Rivers will be a star in the league. He is just a stone cold killer on offense. Great handle. Great range. Great natural scorer. I don't know that he could ever be the best player on a championship team, but could he be the best scorer on a team led by John Wall?

Wall is defiantly looking like he is growing up physically.

I like these game for him. They are allowing him a more flowing format to integrate his less structure creative skill back into his game but allowing him to do it again bigger bodies and older player then when he was doing it in HS.

From what I saw of his game in college, he ran more as a tradition PG set up guy. He just moved the ball around. I like that he got to learn that.

Kind of fells like he is bringing both those worlds together now. When we see him play again, I think we will see more wow type of assists and drives.

Good to see Wall, Nick and McGee all playing in these games.

Kentucky versus the Domjnican national team is today. Wall, Bledsoe, Cousins, Nazr, and others will be playing in the game, which I yhink is being televised somewhere.
