LOL, I remember that show. For whatever reason the dude I remember from that show was Pierre Pierce (him and Will Bynum). Never heard of homey again.

That show was Chicago Hoops (on Fox Sports). It featured Eddy, Sean Dockery, Will Bynum, and some white dude from Downers Grove.

Dope show. Used to watch it after school.

Yeah, Preps, and I think the white guy was name Kyle Klinger, or Klingsbury, some shyt like that. Think he went to Illinois and was a scrub. Remember I would watch that shyt every week.

In the ocean where the sharks be at
Dock fukked up going to dook. He was givin nikkas the flux in high school, went to dook and turned into a one dimensional defender :wtf: Coach K had him lookin the same way he had Rose lookin in that Fiba tournament.

Luther Head was on that shyt too. First nikka I seen throw it off the glass and boom it. Mcgrady must of been watchin cuz he did it a couple months later at the all star game

was balling at U. Iowa, caught a couple sexual assault charges, that was that. Pretty much what send Steve Alford to New Mexico, the fan base turned on him because he supported Pierce.

Pierce caught on with Golden State's summer league team one year, and was looking like a professional scorer, but issues with his probation or house arrest or something fvcked that up.

Good article. Too bad it didn't work out for Curry but he does look like one lazy mf. AND he will forever be linked with our lost decade in NY,ut maybe he suffered from it just as much as the team did.

I actually hope Miami keeps him on the roster this year, just to give him one more chance. He was definitely worthless this year, but generally the 12th man on ANY roster is a waste of space anyway so might as well have someone with potential to do great things (even if the chances are slim)
