 Hey what's up everyone!
This is your boy Ghost touching down and giving you the official updates on
Ghost and Ball4Real.
On Life:
Lately my life has been a very rough and rocky road. I have been working my
butt off to get into shape to compete at the highest levels possible. I have
been working on my handle and my tricks like there is no tomorrow, and I
really got into the entertaining mindset. After my year at Lemoyne Owen
College in Memphis, I realized that I was good at basketball and could play
the game, but my life was streetball. God gave me this gift and I had to
start using it as a tool. I left the Dime organization [yes, Ghost is no longer part of Dime] for the simple fact
that it really wasn't fit for someone like me. In depth, I am a leader, I
am a person who needs his room to get done what he has to get done. All in all I just
can't have someone dictate my moves for me. What's the point? After I left a
lot of things turned around for me. I started getting things accomplished
and making a statement in streetball. I started my own streetball website,
www.ghoststreetball.com, which is the official ghost website as well as the
home of the new "Cant C Me Squad" which is a group of streetballers in
Toronto that represent what Ghost stands for. Humble, creative, driven,
streetballers...
 Ghost & Momma Ghost @ Ball4Real in Seattle
Right now my main focus is to get ghoststreetball.com the number 1
streetball site. On there we have a great clothing line, a
great DVD coming, and a great selection of media and other great things to
keep you interested in what is going on. I'm out here grinding,
showing the world what Ghost from Vancouver is about. I hope you guys can
get on and get right!
On Ball4Real (Seattle):
The whole Ball4Real tour is a very great movement. A lot of people think
they will fail, but on the same note there are a lot of lovers and
supporters of the whole movement. When I showed up in Seattle for the tour
block party it was nothing but love. Shane came up to me right away and gave
me love, Mr. 720 as well, I'll Be Right Back, Killa Kirb, Octane, SpecialFX
and more. I chilled with Elevator and King Handles for a little bit then I
joined the open run. One of the rims was torn down so we ended up playing 3
on 3. They announced who was in the building and I was one of them. When we
got into the building they took our information and then showed us to our
locker rooms. They suited us up with the uniforms and did some interviews.
In warm-ups I did my usual thing; entertain the fans and have fun with the
kids. The game started and it was cool. We didn't really have any fliers or
dunkers I could throw lobs to. We did, but they were not on my line. After
the game we went up to sign some autographs and talk with some of the guys.
The whole Ball4Real experience was great. I am very proud to be one of the
people to play in the first Ball4Real tour stop. For anyone doubting the
Ball4Real tour, check a game first and watch what they are about. It's nice
to see these guys keeping this type of game alive. All they are missing is a
kid name Ghost on the squad. Big ups to Ball4Real and the guys doing the damn thing!
Stay up,
your boy Ghost
