NBA legends make local stars shine nba 2011

Glenn Rice took a backseat to Allan Caidic but flashed his shooting touch, too, going 5-of-16 from downtown – with a putback dunk to boot. Jun Mendoza Zoom MANILA, Philippines – While the shooting machine that’s Allan Caidic got the Big Dome’s scoreboard on overdrive, a 59-year-old retiree dubbed “Fortune Cookie” caught the discerning eyes nba 2011 of the NBA legends during Friday’s free-wheeling NBA Asia Challenge 2010 game.Atoy Co, one of the PBA’s best shooters in the pre-Caidic era, impressed Chris Webber with his conditioning and fervor for the game at his age.

“For the Fortune Cookie to be able to play this game, it’s amazing. Yeah, he is the man, too,” Webber, his knees heavily wrapped in ice, said hours after his White Team lost to the Red Team of Co and Caidic, 167-177.“When we’re 59, I don’t know if we could still do it like him,” Webber, 37, added with a smile.Wearing knee-length shorts in place of the ‘80s short shorts, Co drew cheers everytime he checked in and executed, though in slow motion and with a lot less nba 2011 efficiency, his famous fade-away and “stop on a dime” jump shots.The 1979 MVP missed his first six shots and nine others in 13 minutes on the floor, exaggerating fatigue one time, doing a head-and-shoulder fake against a defender on another, and begging for opponent Mitch Richmond of the White crew to give him the leather in a light instance.
