For the last 11 years Miami Heat's Alonzo Mourning has been running his fundraiser, Zo's Summer Groove with much success but it looks like his team mate Dwyane Wade wants to get in on the action. Zo announced that Wade will be co-hosting the 12th Annual Zo's Summer Groove which will go down from July 9 to 13 in Miami.
"I admire the young fella for not only what he's done on the court, but for the person he is," Mourning told the Miami Herald about Wade. "There's going to be a day when he's going to head this event, take the torch and run with it."
The week will consist of youth basketball clinics, a golf tournament, benefit dinners, a concert, a block party, and an all-star basketball game where Wade will coach the youngins' with Zo coachoing the vets. The proceeds from the events go towards Alonzo Mourning Charities and Wade's World Foundation which both benefit a variety of charities nationwide. For more info check out http://www.zsg.com.

The Detroit bench plus Rasheed Wallace played a great first half and were up fifteen points. Pistons Jason Maxiel dunked, blocked,passed, and scored like a man on fire first half. OK, Flip Saunders, when your bench plays a better half then your starters theres something up or down. Game two if were down bring on the bench, Jarvis Hayes, Amir Johnson, Rodney Stuckey, Jason Maxiell are all looking good. A holla out to veteran Theo Ratliff it was good watching you first half. GO PISTONS!!! We have game two.

I have been crazy about Zo since we were in the sixth grade together, so i will always think he is the hottest.
