FORWARD AHEAD! (Jefferson & Jordan)

There's nothing like playing in a big classic. A classic that has existed since 2001 & has been a huge traditional piece for the city of Philly. Even in whatever condition the weather it is, there always seems to be a huge show up for this event every year and it showcases the best player around.

In this classic, there are 2 guys who showed you what hunger was and their future seems to look very bright...Rondae Jefferson (Chester) & Rysheed Jordan (Vaux). The two guys will both be Jr. next year & they play with the intensity needed to show how big the game is getting and that there is no reason to count basketball out for the future. Guys like Wayne Ellington (Timberwolves), Rasual Butler (Chicago Bulls) & Craig Brackins (Sixers) congratulated these young men for their talent. The ability to be coached by these guys has to be a tremendous feeling for guys who hope to be in their position one day. There is nothing like playing your best and finding was to play as if it was your last game.

Jefferson & Jordan both had 18 pts. but showed their keen ability to not stop at any moment. They wanted to keep their teams close and show the ability to make place all over the place. They definitely showed their big time game in this one like they have been doing all season. Keep an eye on these two for the near future.
