Welcome Everyone!

Oriolekid here reporting from a certain location, where if I told you all where it was I'd have to be killed. My camera crew an I was lucky enough to be invited to this premier, yet relatively unknown, event known as the Under 20 Training Camp. My crew "The Future of USA Basketball-Then and Now" is here to interview the future of USA basketball, as we have been doing for many seasons off the grid. However our crew was just approved by the man himself, U-21 coach Rambo, to release our interviews and work to the public for the first time ever! Our award winning crew, well at least I think we're award winning, of Sleet, Moflaffle, and Tangosz are also here with me interviewing one position group at a time.

Join us every week as we release our interviews, and journal entries with 5 premier U-20 players.

This week they had the luxury of interviewing the top 5 20 year old PG's in the USA, and had a fantastic time doing it. The lucky 5 are Garth Ritchies, Barney Mayer, Dwain Withers, Peter Cox, and Timothy Meeks

Enjoy USA, we may never be as lucky again!

==========================================================================

"Sleet here observing the PG's running drills. All of them are precision passers, but the shooting is lacking. Sleet off for now. Man Oriole, I don't think I've ever seen more slackers in my life, their awful, they smell, none of them speak clearly, amongst many other things. God help Rambo."-S

"Uhh Sleet you're still recording" -O

"Ah #$@^. I hate these mother $%^*@^$ pieces of %^@.-S

"You're still recording man. "-O

"I hate my job"-S

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Tangosz here, sitting down with one of the best overall 20 y/o's in the US, Garth Ritchie. Garth it's a pleasure being able to sit down with you. How are you taking in this entire experience?"-T

"Well this certainly is, well um, interesting."-G.R.

"Why is that?"-T

"Can this be off the record?"-G.R.

"Why of course it can." Tangosz leaves his tape recorder on.

"I'm the best out of all of these pretenders. In fact I'm the greatest that ever came through this camp. Joe Who? Martin Who? Willis Who?"-G.R.

Tangosz and Garth both break out laughing after that last name.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Moflaffle, since I suspect Sleet is drunk, and depressed right now, let's go interview Mayer and Withers together"-O

"He does this every time we interview a group of players that excludes one of his own. My question is why is he still here?"-M

"Hey you bailed out Hubert Douglas out of jail 14 times last season so I don't want any mouth from you"-O
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Oriole and Moflaffle here with Dwain Withers and Barney Mayer. Let's get this started. A question for both of you. You've both been practicing with each other all week. How does the guy sitting next to you have to improve his game?"

"Well Mr. Withers game is very very good. However I don't think I've ever seen him grab a rebound. Plus he doesn't shoot well, also he's short, plus I don't really think he speaks English."-B.M.

"Barney ne pas abattre que bien, mais il constitue un bon défenseur comme je l'ai vu tous les autour. Aussi il a eu un grand moteur."-D.W.

"Uhh What? Dwain you are an American, and you were drafted, and play for a team based in Chicago...?-M

"Yo sé, pero no hablan inglés. Puedo comprender muy bien."-D.W.

"What the hell. He's speaking Spanish now. According to my records you have never left the country before, yet you speak multiple languages, and English is not one of them? Is that correct?"-O

"Ja"-D.W.

(Continued)

"Ok that was weird. Moflaffle you go interview Meeks, and I'll grab Sleet, if I can find him, and Tangosz for Cox. We're going to need all the help we can get with him"-O

"No Fair. Cox is the only one I want to interview. I need him!"-M

"Well finish your interview with Meeks, and you may be able to come for the end of the Cox interview. However approach slowly. You don't want to startle him. That wouldn't end well. Anyways It may be a while anyway since we need to call in S.W.A.T. and the U.S. Marshalls for his escort."-O

"But he's 20 feet away..."-M

"Do you have any intentions of dying today?"-O
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Moflaffle here with Timothy Meeks. Meeks you have had hype with you since you were drafted. How do you think you handled that hype"-M

"Very Well. Actually..."-T.M

"Just fantastic, do you like the team you play with?"-M

"I love them. Just the other day we..."-T.M.

"I'm not here for your life story man"-M

"Actually you kinda are"-T.M.

Moflaffle slowly pulls his shades off, and gives Meeks a death stare. "I think we're done here"-M

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Slowly. Slowly. We don't want any danger here"-Sleet says as Peter Cox is being walked over in chains. SWAT team has tranquilizer snipers all over the bleachers.

"Sit him in the chair over there."-O. U.S. Marshalls handcuffed him to the chair, and tied several 100 yards of rope around him.

"Ok are... Are we.... Are we set up?"-Tangosz said shaking.

"Good to go. Ok Peter. I want you to answer all our questions openly, honestly, and without any threats. Nod you're head if you understand"-O

Cox nods his head. The SWAT team all raise their guns, Tangosz passes out, and Sleet pulls out his flask.

"Ok Peter. We know you have a very public rivalry with SG prospect Jonathan Yi. Tell me, what have you done with him? He's been missing for 4 days?

"Wha? Ji luv Yi. I saz 'im like too daze agos prayin' in teh gym?-P.C.

"HE'S CASTING CURSES ON US ALL" Shouted a random SWAT guy. Next thing we know Cox has 8 tranquilizer darts in his neck.

"I need to call my mom. Tell her how much I love her." Oriole said crying.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It was a very eventful first session with the players. Join us tomorrow with our journals of their practices together.
