People love adding asterisks to stuff in sports, but nothing deserves it more than......

.....those high school basketball academies.

High school teams with players actually from the neighborhood of the school>>>>


What's crazy, is ppl tried to give Bron shít because he went to Mt Vincent St. Mary's, even though he was the only star on the team that wasn't a hoop academy and he still gave Oak Hill that work

I miss seeing public schools put out talent and have great sports programs

Me being from Illinois, I remember the Peoria Manual teams that won 4 straight State titles and they only had 1 player to see any significant time in the NBA, Frank Williams. Team was just tough.

Then you got the Chicago schools like Simeon with Derrick Rose.

I see them academy schools on TV, and I'm just not interested in watching MOST of the time
