Like most NBA players, James and Bryant had amazing high school careers.
He even got me my very own basketball hoop in my backyard for my birthday, but unfortunately as time flew by life took all this from us. As each day goes by, there has been many times were I have asked myself, “Why did it have to be my grandfather, a person who I’ve trusted with everything, a person who knew what to do or say to make me happy and who was someone that was really special in my life?” I remember when my brother and I first noticed that there was something wrong with our grandfather. I will never forget that day. We were all outside playing some pick-up basketball, just having a good time together, laughing, messing around, and this was just about a couple of months after my birthday. It was my brother and I against our Grandfather, this being because I was very small at the age of 7 and trying to shoot at a ten foot basketball hoop was pretty difficult.

If Adam goes pro, he can earn money right away to help his mother and possibly be very successful in the NBA.

Luckily, we visited Paw Paw quite often. We often overheard his little squabbles. “No way, José!” Paw Paw would yell; in response, we would shout back, “Yes way, José!” and burst into giggles. My younger siblings and cousins would tell Paw Paw about school, or ballet, or baseball, or their pet iguana, and just when they got into the story, he’d roar, “No kiddin’!” with a huge smile on his face. Paw Paw helped us remember that life should be fun.
