Exactly. If you're not buying or selling drugs in Glencoe, international, lake in the hood, or whatever they're all called now, or in ypsi township sus blocks, you're fine.

Being a gangsta type guy in ypsi arbor is a choice unless you were legit born into it in parts of ypsi or willow run. He wasn't.

And they got the wackest wannabe gangsters. Lot of black boys and men from good to great households who willingly take on thug cultures to prove their “blackness” to white boys, and impress white girls. It’s pathetic. Even in Ann Arbor you see it. The education performance gap in Ann Arbor between black and white kids is scary. You can’t blame that on all or most teachers being racist. They aren’t. But I’ve seen firsthand how black kids from those backgrounds reach a certain age and start mimicking behaviors you’d expect somewhere in Detroit, not safe ass Ann Arbor. Disrupting classes, not taking work seriously. I don’t get it.

You must not know a thing about EMU there’s a gang of nikkaz from Detroit that do not go to college that set up shop there. And he doesn’t seem like the type to hang around Ann Arbor when he could be at home

And nikkaz was trying to argue with me about going back to ypsi being a bad move

It’s the parents failing most

In emoni case his dad couldn’t trust the process and for all the money they likely made doing what they did he’s been lapped by other kids and is now even further away from what’s as their goal; making it to the nba

Add him to the list of flops as the best prospect since LeBron. Smh

Same reason why most Detroit folks absolutely didn’t want bridges back

At least miles is probably on drugs Emoni just not that bright from everything I’ve seen.

Damn that's a name I haven't heard in a long time lol

 

[Instant Classic]

this whole saga is going to be a 30 for 30 episode. Its a damn shame to throw it all away like this, and wonder if he would've benefited if he was able to get drafted at 18. However, he most likely wasn't ready for that transition

Maybe but he was like 6’8-170. He doesn’t have great handles has negative wingspan and is supposed to be a great shooter who just shot like 32 percent against Division one talent

I rooted for this nikka
