OK .. I surrender. Darned if I know how to login to this web site.It only rejected my attempt at giving it a security code at least ten times.Strangely it finally gave me an account. Now if only I could figure what and where to clickto get the video. what a rat's nest.Eight o'clock and still unable to get the video. I'm out. A waste of time. Go Zeke.

i did watch the all star game.here are my obervations.please do not rip me for my comments.it's hard to judge a game like this.the game was a typical all star game with not much defense.i think the score at the half was usa 65/florida 50.zeke did start the game,but each side played alott of guys.it's hard to tell how good florida talent wise.zeke looks every bit of 7'0,and as alott of length.he moves really well for a guy 7'0.he also had two blocks,and altered a shot on just one possesion.i hope i am not jumping the gun,but i don't think akron ever had a guy that can block shots like this.i realize this was high school kids though in anall star game.he did have a a couple turn around jumpers he missed.he had a few nice baskets around the rim with a nice open dunk.he can do the job on offense around the basket.i have seen to many times where are big guys miss open layups;so i don't think that will the case now.

Thanks for the review. I wish I could have watched but was away from home. I certainly don't see anything you said that deserves ripping. While it may have just been high school kids, it was some of the best high school kids whose next official games will be as college freshmen, perhaps even playing against each other. So if Zeke looked good against this level of competition, that's a good sign for his freshman year with the Zips. I don't expect him to dominate, but I do expect he will be a solid contributor to next season's Zips team.

Team USA dominates Team FloridaI also like to remind myself that Zeke is very selfless. He prefers defensive play over offensive, thus an all-star game doesn't seem to be where he would peak. I look for Zeke to contribute where it counts, taking a team to the next level and making the plays necessary to win. In an all star game I'm sure everyone is just looking to have a good time and Zeke loves to block shots! (I’m sure the dunk was nice too though) I hope to see a ton more of both, personally.Great job Zeke, sounds like you played well!
