　　If you wanna talk about playground legends, the conversation begins right there. Demetrius "Hook" Mitchell is the legend. You can hear all the stories in the world, but you&aposll never believe it until you see it. He&aposs done inhuman stuff, unreal stuff.

�

　　Hook was by far the best player to come out of Oakland. Demetrius Hook Mitchell is the Bay&aposs most notorious legend. Every cat with at least minimal knowledge of playground ball has a Hook Mitchell story. The tales of his leaping ability are common place. Jumping over cars, bikes and people wasn&apost no thing to Hook. Bore his descent into narcotics hell, Hook was nothing but heavenly. If he&aposd just kept his head straight, he&aposd be in the league right now, dominating.

�

　　Unfortunately, Hook lives in a prison cell now and in other folks&apos memories.

�

　　Several NBA stars who also grew up in Oakland, including Gary Payton, Jason Kidd, Antonio Davis, Drew Gooden, and Brian Shaw, all of whom played with Mitchell on the streets, and were astonished by his skills, but were unable to help him avoid his sorry fate. They describe his unstable home life and the longing for community that drove him to the streets. Mitchell himself is shown playing prison league games, and is surprisingly still able to play above the rim.

�

　　His story, like others, was written on courts between the West and East Bay.
