"Prodigies" starring KG, Kobe, & LeBron

Known for their NBA youtube mixes, Hoops4Life has just released their magnum opus after a year in the making. "Prodigies" is a collaboration between mixmakers Domino, Renhigotrare, VenomIndustries, and Dinoman, following the careers of the three greatest high school to NBA phenoms. The video highlights Kevin Garnett, Kobe Bryant, and LeBron James, from their high school days all the way to Kobe and the Lakers defeating the Orlando Magic for the NBA Championship this past season. It's definitely a little heavy-handed on the cheesiness, seeming like an extra long preview for a documentary, but I can't hate considering all of the footage and interviews they had to painstakingly collect and edit to tell the story. I'm guessing they were banking on the Cavs beating the Magic in the Eastern Conference Finals, as it would've tied the whole thing together with the Kobe vs. LeBron showdown. They must've been too far into the editing process to include Dwight Howard in the mix, as he's the last great player to make the jump from high school to the pros.

Big up to Ball Don't Lie and SLAM.
