As many of you know, Kobe Bryant recently made some very harsh remarks toward our AAU Basketball program. Here is what Kobe Bryant told Eric Pincus of the LA Times during a recent interview:
“AAU basketball. Horrible, terrible AAU basketball. It’s stupid, it doesn’t teach our kids how to play the game, at all. In America, it’s a big problem for us. We’re not teaching players how to play all-around basketball,that’s why you have Pau [Gasol] and you have Marc [Gasol] and the reason why 90% of the [San Antonio] Spurs roster are European players, because they have more skills.” Here are some great perspectives, responses and articles that defend the AAU and go against a lot of the negative press we have received.
