If Kyle chooses to play with Birdie's arch rivals, he may find himself taking time-outs...permanently. Either way he's heading for the basketball showdown of the year, when the 'hoods toughest gangs meet head to head for some high-flying, big-shooting action; and where playing dirty is the way they play ball"--Container."
