During a press-conference thanking the Kentucky Wildcats for generously generating and donating a cool million via their recent “Hoops For Haiti” telethon, President Obama not only acknowledged he spends his free time catching up on NBA-bound John Wall’s game, but that he has no desire to get schooled by the young man people refer to as the next Jordan Harold Minor Penny G.Hill Kobe Vince Carter LeBron.
That’s the best decision the President’s made in months.

John Wall is the truth
J-Wall FTW
Get ready NBA…hes comin…
he is nice but i cant help but to think he will struggle in the big league. hell, for the past few years, all i’ve heard was derrick rose and brandon jennings, and to a lesser extent tyreke evans. they have all had they moments of shine. but they all have their bad moments and hit walls where nothing seems to go right.
i root for them all to be good, but i can not allow myself to get extra hyped cuz frankly, there will be another “john wall” around the corner soon.
rose, jennings, and evans haven’t been in the league long enough for nothing to go right …

hey yo beware that really gave me a good chuckle
The Great Wall of Kentucky
@ clean house…
I came up with that line and reworked the entire post accordingly. worked too well.
Rose and Evans are both legitimately having all-star caliber seasons, Evans is averaging 20-5-5 as a rookie and Rose is in if AI wasn’t voted in by his crew 24-7 for ego purposes lol. I think they have both lived up to the hype. And while Jennings has been inconsistent after the hot start, he’s still loaded with talent and will be a big-time force sooner than later. Besides, part of the fun of b-ball is watching blue-chippers when they’re young as they’re harnessing all their talents, putting it together and figuring out what they can do well at the NBA level en route to all-star status. Young MJ, Young Kemp, Young Magic, Young Shaq n Penny, Kobe age 18-24, young Lebron/Melo/Wade/Bosh/Dwight Howard/CP3, now Durant and Rose and Evans, it’s always a blast if you love hoops.
And Wall is next. His game is gas-face disgusting.
Kentucky represent.
Who’s the nig with the red hair and crazy hops?
