This is the main reason it wasn't live. They didn't know how long games were going to take and they were trying to fit 4 games into 3 hours and had to just give highlights of one of those games. Despite the actual length of games, I'm sure they edited out warm ups and introductions and truncated half time as well. An hour did feel a little long for a 3 on 3 game.
I'm rooting for the Power team of Mobley, Moochie, Deshawn Stevenson etc. With Maggette and Jason Williams now down with injuries, this may open up Steve Francis to get picked up via Free Agency. It'd probably be more likely that he gets picked up to replace Magette since the Power team has all of Steve's homeboys. I'm actually surprised he didn't get picked up in the draft, Moochie got drafted ahead of him. And Mobley was a captain! I guess Mobley doesn't feel the same way about Stevie Franchise that Steve feels for Mobley
One of my favorite college player - Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf. The oldest player in Big 3 still showing that sweet shot and quickness.
Full game from wk 3. Cat Mobley, Stevenson, Moochie Norris (barely play) coached by Drexler vs Lewis, Abdul-Rauf, and airball Brown coached by G Payton. Cat and Rauf played well.
Awesome that Abdul-Rauf is in there, such quick release still! You cannot tell me this guy couldn't play 5 to 10 minutes with today's rules in the league, you just cannot convince me. Let CP3 and Harden set this guy up, guaranteed 3 threes a game!
I'm just happy to see him balling at 48! At his younger age, he didn't sweat playing the whole game and he still look to be in great shape.
Yeah it's crazy! I think plenty of people are surprised as he is the oldest of the bunch and is one of the top performers we should hit up Maxwell on twitter to join next year.
It's cool to see many of these players. I also like the format as I can relate more. 3-on-3 half court is my typical BB games for years. The rules are still strange (not sure if it's following the olympic or if the olympic will follow it), but cool to see what I normally play on TV. Moochie doesn't belong though. I think I can beat him 1-1 and I'm probably his age
Moochie only lasted 2(?) games before he was 'deactivated' and replaced. I've been rooting for that power team; Cuttino and Deshawn Stevenson have been leading them. It really sucks that they lost Maggette to injury, but they need size. Al Harrington's Trilogy team is undefeated because there is nobody big enough in the league to guard Al in the post.
Trilogy are the undefeated champs, despite no output from K-Mart. Abdul-Rauf was on fire with 22 points and had he not stepped on the line twice, who knows what would've happened!
