Sadly, James was murdered near his new home in North Carolina.  As the years went on Michael started playing more sports . For example, Baseball and football. He took baseball the most serious out of all of the sports he played. In his sophomore year he tried out for the varsity team for basketball. He was only 5'9 at the time and was very skinny. He was booted out by a guy who was 6'8. Almost a foot taller than Michael. Some interesting facts about MJ was he retired twice from the the NBA . The first reason was to play baseball. But then he quit that and joined back to the NBA,and won 6 championships with the Bulls. Michael was drafted 3rd in the first round by the Bulls in 1984 .

                This quote was one of the most famous quotes from MJ . This was from all the times Jordan has missed the game winning shot,but he always tried , even though he failed .

                                   Paul George 

                             


                      Paul George is was one of the most improved basketball of all time to play in the NBA. Paul was born on May 2,1990 in Palmdale  California . He was drafted by the Pacers in 2010.He is there still to this day as a small forward. Paul George is a monster when he is about to dunk the basketball. He has all sorts of tricks up his sleeve. He can do a windmill, 360 and many more. Also he has a great stroke for the 3 point line , he will make you pay if you leave him open. Lastly, for his great performance he gets paid 3.282 million dollars.            







                                                     My Thoughts 


                   There are not a lot of ways  to guard Paul . This is due to his ability to adjust to the defense . He can always find a way to score. Whether, driving or shooting or going into the post. However, Paul is a very under rated passer. The court vision he is blessed to has is amazing.   He can find his teammates any wear on the court . George is a fearless opponent. He is willing to guard some of the best basketball players in the world. For example, LeBron James and Kevin Durant. And he does a pretty good from them scoring of him. He is my 2nd  favorite basketball players that still plays today .

                             Uncle Drew 


          Uncle drew is a really good commercial.they are trying sell Pepsi, but they make very creatively.They make a pro basketball dress up as an old man . He is doing some really good basketball moves against the younger bloods. He starts doing crazy dribble moves that will surely make  you fall, or in basketball terms "break ankles". Watch the video on YouTube  to see what I am talking about. You will be amazed . Truly amazed.

                                     My Thoughts 

           I think this commercial is a good way to get kids or people that like basketball attention . They will buy Pepsi, and then money will be made. I was a brilliant idea to feature Kyrie  Ivring the guy dressed up because he is famous through out the world . Also, I believe that Pepsi is better than Coka-Cola. How  about you ? Who every came up the idea must of been a basketball fan. In order to know who Kyrie is . He or she could perhaps been a Cleveland fan. That is where Ivring plays. This one of my favorite  commercials ever to be seen with my own eye
