A 32 Basketball Game with Hip-Hop artist Mike Page

This week my nephew and I went to my local Miami basketball court and got into a street basketball game of 32 (thirty-two) with Hip-Hop artist Mike Page from Elgin, Illinois. I have played many pickup games on these courts but you rarely see a player with the quickness, shooting and understanding of the game of basketball as Mike Page. It was also my first basketball game of Thirty-two (32), which is a variation to the Twenty-one basketball game (21) or "hustle" (see Wikipedia). Instead of shooting free throws after a 2 or 3 point shot which slows the game down, you keep the ball. I understand it is the game of choice in Chicago, D-Wade or Dwyane Wade's hometown. This is "Wade County" so I'm surprised that I've never heard of this game and was not able to find it on Urban Dictionary, Wikipedia or any basketball website.

BTW, Mike won both games we played although his VP of Operations for PAGEMUSIC, Dominique Jones can certainly put up the threes and my nephew, who Mike nicknamed "G-shot" also put up some points. As far as my game, I need to hit the gym more frequently, especially when playing a game of Thirty-two.

Mike Page is an independent artist and is known for his hit single, "Show Yo Swag" and has opened for such artists as Lil Wayne and T-Pain. I understand Mike Page is working on a new album, VOICE OF THE PEOPLE which is scheduled to be released in January, 2009.
