I read his quotes and skimmed through the rest.

So he's saying that pick-up games on ****ty rims, wind and asphalt prepares you better than organized bball? I don't think so. Most of the good kids in he 90's that I grew up with played church league, our local youth league or some other type of organized hoops.

Huggins has become much more likeable the last few years but I think he's off base on this one.

Would that have helped his team not get bitch slapped by SFA?
