Grassroots basketball is back. I am so tired of hearing about Lebron and Melo and how many points U.S.A. need to go to the knockout stage. Since I last spoke to you, grassroots basketball took a back seat to high school and individual camps. A lot of these elite players,hadn't slept in their own bed in over 2 months.
