(durantula) truly emerging as a superstar. </p> http://www.hawaiihoops.com/forum/topic/youth-basketball-1#post-32901 Thu, 05 Apr 2012 21:46:45 +0000 kooltoo 32901@http://www.hawaiihoops.com/forum/ <p>AIEA BASKETBALL TOURNAMENTS<br /> SUMMER 2012</p> <p>Tournament Dates<br /> 12U Boys Division: June 8-10 (Friday-Sunday)<br /> 14U Boys Division: June 15-17 (Friday-Sunday)<br /> 18U Boys Division: July 6-8 (Friday-Sunday)<br /> 16U Boys Division: July 13-15 (Friday-Sunday)</p> <p>Tournament Directors<br /> Robert Godinez 456-5141 (H) <a href="mailto:godinez3rd@yahoo.com">godinez3rd@yahoo.com</a><br /> Derik Shimoda 341-4079 (C) <a href="mailto:derik@hawaii.rr.com">derik@hawaii.rr.com</a><br /> Keaton Miyashiro 343-7033 (C) </p> http://www.hawaiihoops.com/forum/topic/nba-mvp/page/2#post-32894 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 20:54:26 +0000 Kevin 32894@http://www.hawaiihoops.com/forum/ <p>KD 35 MVP HANDS DOWN.

(sidenote to knicks: i'm on to your ZONE! cant fool uncle! lol!) </p> http://www.hawaiihoops.com/forum/topic/youth-basketball-1#post-32548 Mon, 02 Jan 2012 18:51:26 +0000 OldG 32548@http://www.hawaiihoops.com/forum/ <p>I would let Hoopwaiian coach my son, my grandson, etc. He brought his BayCity game, along with his 3 brothers to the hood to play hoops against us Hawaiian Homes brutha's. Let me tell it was funny listening to these Northern Cali hawaiians who couldn't speak a lick of pidgin. But they could HOOP!</p> <p>Though I graduated by the time he started coaching WHS, I can tell you he brought some class. The only coach to wear a blazer or suit with a tie while working the sidelines. </p> <p>Nowadays, he's blowing a whistle, scoping out the games, sampling the concession, reading a newspaper, counting the lines on the court, talking on the cell phone to Ia Saipaia, Gilbert Hicks, Bill Nahler, Kalei Pe'a, Rama Camarillo or trying to get stats from Hi-Low. </p> <p>It's all good. Happy New Year to everyone. </p> http://www.hawaiihoops.com/forum/topic/youth-basketball-1#post-32527 Sun, 01 Jan 2012 19:27:13 +0000 Luna86 32527@http://www.hawaiihoops.com/forum/ <p>Hey Clue, Diet coke is fine with me!!! lol...I got some roots in Lahaina too!

Clueless would u consider the nickname, "the flying Hawaiian" a racist nickname? I really dont think hoophawaiian is a racist person at all. He gives the player nicknames for fun, and he always praises them for their great play. I guarentee u if you would meet hoophawaiian u would like him as a person. Now don't get me wrong if u would call me, brew "the pudgy portoge", it would bother me a little.LOL!!! have a great new year everyone. </p> http://www.hawaiihoops.com/forum/topic/youth-basketball-1#post-32383 Sat, 31 Dec 2011 09:39:00 +0000 clueless 32383@http://www.hawaiihoops.com/forum/ <p>wats next ref? u gonna stereotype all da otha races? u gonna give insensitive and offensive nicknames to the Hawaiians? Chinese? Portuguese? Samoans? FIlipinos? Or to another Japanese-American child?</p> <p>its so sad that u cannot even recognize your insensitive comment and u try to disguise the guilt and severity of your insensitive comment by writing, "the players from the kaimuki knicks liked my post! told me personally."</p> <p>btw u just answered why u aren't allowed to coach in hawaii. no one would ever put u in a position of authority to lead found men or women. no administrator would ever give you control to lead young minds using such racist innuendo. </p> http://www.hawaiihoops.com/forum/topic/youth-basketball-1#post-32382 Sat, 31 Dec 2011 09:34:56 +0000 clueless 32382@http://www.hawaiihoops.com/forum/ <p>nothin can change it, yup ur a racist. little kids are little, hence are uneducated about racism, ethics, and professionalism in public. dey will learn. lucky dey don't have someone to educate dem such as u. </p> <p>and little kids r here reading blogs by u? really? lol like anyone gonna believe u.</p> <p>da mere fact dat u don't even know ur comment is racist and sets a negative stigma about Asian-Americans by "labeling and stereotyping" a kid wit dat hideous nickname just shows da entire world ur ignorance and insensitivity.</p> <p>but hey, little kids thought it was kool so it's ok. using ur logic lets let the little kids handle da judicial system, fix the state financial deficit, and work on the board for national ethics (something u will never be allowed to do).</p> <p>nothin u can say can change it. dat is one racist comment for da entire bloggin nation to see. </p> <p>i apologize to all da keiki and adults on this site dat dey had to read dis racist comment, racist/stereotyping name, and insensitive remark, made by dis irresponsible referee. </p> http://www.hawaiihoops.com/forum/topic/youth-basketball-1#post-32381 Sat, 31 Dec 2011 09:02:20 +0000 hoopwaiian 32381@http://www.hawaiihoops.com/forum/ <p>the players from the kaimuki knicks liked my post! told me personally, 2 days in a row! dont like you, though. </p> http://www.hawaiihoops.com/forum/topic/youth-basketball-1#post-32380 Sat, 31 Dec 2011 05:27:52 +0000 clueless 32380@http://www.hawaiihoops.com/forum/ <p>sharks from oahu are tough! got a kid i nicknamed " kareem abdul japan!" a little asian persuasion!</p> <p>WOW, now dis clown is on here being a racist! Really, calling a kid "kareem abdul japan?" I am sure this child has a real name. And I bet a parent would not want their child to be called "Japan" anything. Why do you need to stereotype him and cast him off like an asian or japan or japanese?</p> <p>Why can't this young man be a "really great" player. So what is next? Are you going to stereotype the Filipinos, Polynesians, Chinese, or African-Americans playing in our state?</p> <p>Now I am starting to see why you aren't allowed to coach. I would like to see you go to a family of Japanese decent who you do not know, and in front of everyone say, "hey I am going to call your child Kareem Abdul Japan."</p> <p>SMH!!! </p> http://www.hawaiihoops.com/forum/topic/youth-basketball-1#post-32298 Thu, 29 Dec 2011 15:03:40 +0000 Spartans79 32298@http://www.hawaiihoops.com/forum/ <p>I have a team and we are currently in the P.A.L pony division.

(literally!) his coordination and iq are amazing for a youth his age and size! things start to get tight and coach inserts "kareem". play for the title today at the civic. (happy to hear from the coaches that their using a shot clock in their leagues on oahu. it shows in the kids play, even at that age! going in the right direction. i applaud you.) </p> http://www.hawaiihoops.com/forum/topic/youth-basketball-1#post-32248 Tue, 27 Dec 2011 23:34:21 +0000 hoopwaiian 32248@http://www.hawaiihoops.com/forum/ <p>shout out to the kaimuki knicks and sharks from oahu and maui too. currently hooping it up in hilo for the hi-pal holiday classic.
