Im watching that Lenny Cooke documentary right now....

[duckbutta]

This whole documentary is

Regardless if Lenny had been a star or not he sure as shyt would have been a millionaire...and he sure as shyt aint one now

It's got to be seeing guys like Melo and Bron and knowing that at one point in your life you were right up there with them...they got everything and you go nothing

I honestly believe dude would've never been more than a Sebastian Telfair had he made it to the league. He just didn't strike me as a hard worker, just a guy coasting on natural ability.

All he had to do was just fake it until you make it, the draft class for SG/SF in 2002 was terrible, and with just an average work ethic he should have been a top 10 pick.

Melo crushed his dreams

I kind of felt like Bron did....if Bron doesn't hit that last shot everybody would've viewed him different.

Foxy's brother Gavin

The doc showed me that Joakim Noah is a really good dude, he's still looking out for Lenny

Yea I look at Noah way different now...real dude.

I feel the NBA let him down to make a point to highschool players...but I still don't get why he/his camp would think not playing for more than a year would be beneficial....before the draft

Just watched this and man felt legit bad for dude when he was singing st his birthday party and crying.

So why did he not get drafted? Was it because he actually did take the last year off? Who the hell thought that was a good idea?

Looks slow.

How come he didn't carve a career over seas?

The scene after this


It reminded me of a scene in The Wrestler where he was listening to music and reminiscing.

It wasn't that the music was great, but it reminded him of a time when it seemed like he was on top of the world.

The same with Lenny.

Sometimes I hear songs from years's ago and think of the younger days when you didn't have a care in the world

I feel you.... Once spent about 30-45 minutes on youtube listening to older songs from HS/early 20s thinking about how life was so much simpler.

Time goes by so fast.

Question ?....Is his girlfriend towards the end of this movie the same young girl who was holding the sleeping boy earlier in the film ?

Yeah the scene after this is heartbreaking. It's his birthday, couldn't even get p*ssy from his girl, he ends up sleeping on the couch watching melo and lbj playing in the NBA. This can't be life

I said the same thing


Just think when he turn on the tv he see million dollar deals sneaker movies etc....

With
Bron
Melo
Jokim sitting on the bench getting paid
Raymond Felton siting there



It’s got to burn
