it's funny that there are like 100-200 kids in this academy. out of them maybe 5 will ever be drafted and out of them maybe 1 will be worth a fuck...
those kids are wasting their money and their time on nonsense.
back in the days jordan had no nike "skills" academy and he became the greatest ever.
ball is a game of talent, and if you wanna become the best, don't seek shortcuts in academies... just go out, train as hard as you possibly can, live,eat and breathe basketball and your'e a legend.
@jingeshan24 thats the most retarded logic ever. why not go and play against the best? it can only get you better. these academies are by no way a short cut. its a way to play against other good players your age and learn from professionals like KD.
@dlarge20 playing against the best doesn't mean it will get you play better. there is no obligation that if you'll play agains the highest level you'll get progress.
they have enough playing time in their leagues. the rest should come from personal training, not from some lame ass academy.
they can learn from nba players much more if they just watched some footage! the best way to analize a player and study him is by watching him play, not asking him questions.
@jingeshan24 i think you've never played a sport before...havent you heard that when you challenge yourself to beat the best you become the best? if these guys are just doing fine in their leagues then theyre not really getting any better. To not go to an academy taught by proffesionals to play against guys better than them and to ask questions is ridiculous
@jingeshan24 and michael jordan DID go to academys. He went to the ABCD camp and got national recognition and eventually got a scholarship to UNC. you're a fucktard
@jingeshan24 and you must have not done that much research because when i put in michael jordan abcd camp im google the first thing that popped up was the 5 star basketball camp website and alma-maters include MICHAEL JORDAN. And you spelled fucktard wrong you faggot
@dlarge20 oh, and i guess abcd and 5 star camp are the same thing right??!?
so jordan was a bad example on my side, but what about jabbar or johnson?
great players become great because of potential not a 4 day "academy" and if you think this camp actually makes a major difference then you're a moron.
BTW, a faggot is a twig\branch you illiterate cunt! the english word for gay is, guess what? GAY! (which i'm not btw... just ask your mother).
so yea... dr.spellingbee, go fuck yourself will ya?
@jingeshan24 You truly are retarded. 5 star camp is what they used to call ABCD camp, so YES it IS the same fucking thing . And you're out dating yourself by naming Kareem and Magic. They weren't even around when these academies were created. What about Lebron James, Kobe Bryant, Allen Iverson, Kevin Durant, Kevin Garnett, OJ Mayo, Eric Gordon, and many many more.
@jingeshan24 its absurd to say that attending a one week camp with Kevin durant and other great players is useless. I guarantee you can learn something in one week from KD
@dlarge20 personal experiance is not proof of anything... mike might assert that this camp was a turning point in his life, perhaps from an attitude point of view.
however talentwise, he had the potential to become a legend from the moment he was born, camp or no camp.
@jingeshan24 Im just saying it helps alot. And you're saying it doesn't help at all, which is utter nonsense. I now realize that I've probably been arguing with a 12 year old because you can't spell for shit. I've also proved you wrong in ever aspect of this argument, so I think I'm done here.
@dlarge20 i can't spell for shit because english is not my 1st language... when you'll be able to speak russian, hebrew, german, spanish, arabic or french as well as i speak english then you'll have the right to criticise my language skills ok?
i'm not saying camps dont help, i'm saying people achieved great success without camps for ages, and there is no reason why anyone should live in the illusion that a training camp is the only thing missing between him and becoming a legend.
IMHO the best pure shooter in NBA now.

if you think you're so smart show me where it's written ok? because his bio at nba.com doesn't mention it and his wikipedia page doesn't mention it.
profanities will not make you sound any smarter you stupid, low life, lifeless, talentless, degenerate, illiterate, uneducated homo neanderthalensis.

@dlarge20 and you really try to credit their success to their attendance at a 1 week (or however long it is) long camp?
