Nailed it!! :russ: A lot of these dudes that been in the league aint no different from the HS never were nikkas occupying barbershops, dorm rooms, and family gatherings. "Take away everything that actually happened and I'm him" :mjlol: Politics is the pro version of "coach aint like me/had his favorites"

No it’s a lot different

These guys were so nice on any given night they’d have you thinking they was the man for real

NBA guys are mutants

Yes they are which is why guys that are really nice cant cut it or cant come close to what they were at lower levels.

Shades of Gilbert too. He’s the one who said Kobe had no bag, that’s why he had to counter move and pump fake a lot.

Nah Gil don't gas himself up that much specially considerin for a 3 year stretch he was a All NBA and top 10 level player in the league.

This def at McCants and BJennings. McCants talk like he was a perenial all star and Jennings deadass thinks he was a franchise player before injury. Problem wit nikkas like em they still livin off high school and college hype. Jennings talk like he still hoopin at Oak Hill and Rashad at UNC. But we seen what it look like at NBA level.

That's the way I see it too. If you made it to the NBA (as a guard or forward) and got more than just a 10 day, you got the right to talk crazy. Odds are that they aren't randomly going to run into anyone thats better than them. They could go into any gym and look like Jordan to regular folks.

I really don't have a problem with Jennings or McCants, they're just immature. That immaturity probably cost them a bit of money too. Seeing D. Rose and PJ Tucker making adjustments to stay in the league should be highlighted more.
