If Rappers were Ballplayers Volume 1

Talib Kweli=Lamar Odom

"Great talent, all the tools but doesn't do enough to become of the elite players/rappers in the league."

Cam = Allan Houston
Great shot, but in the 4th Quarter his game goes to sleep

Prodigy=Penny Hardaway
Flashes of brilliance earlier in their careers. Both are slowly on the decline.

Guru=Tim Duncan
Legendary but boring as hell sometimes.

Jay-Z=Michael Jordan
Many think he's the greatest, some don't but every one wants to be like him, and even after retiring people want him to comeback, and still talk about him

Jadakiss= Steve Francis
Perennial All-Star, High expectations year after year
Fan favorite , highlight material (quotables, punchlines), low shooting percentage (2 mediocre albums)

kobe = r.kelly
perform best when facing charges...

Fat Joe = Chris Childs
Only good for throwin jabs at people clearly more talented than him(jayz)

Nate Dogg = Mark Jackson
Once considered legendary, but is only good at giving assists.

Tony Yayo = Darko Milicic
Sat on the bench all year while his team won the championship.

Fabolous - Stephon Marbury
Plays so well at times, but always seems to disappoint with his POOR decision making during the 4th quarter.

Eminem=Larry Bird
(White people think he's the greatest ever because he's white)
(Black people think he's overrated because he's white)

ll cool j=karl malone
consistent every year, but wont win a championship(with weak albums)

dr.dre=phil jackson
gets too much credit for doing nothing.
snoop= gary payton
talks a lot of trash, but hasnt been good since early days

nas= tracy mcgrady(before the trade)
1 one the best players in the game. on a weak team(braveheart) but can raise among stars(that all-star move a couple years ago)

cormega=paul pierce
great player, and underrated

Lloyd Banks = Ricky Davis , has some highlight reels but in the end will never be an allstar

DMX = Damon Stoudamire
2 drug attics that still can't put the pipe down.

Lil Flip = Earl Boykins
Both short on substance.

Mase=Alonzo Mourning
Solid player who retires and comes back, after a while no one really cares .

Lil Jon - Jason Kidd
He can't EVER do it by himself and he makes mediocre cats look like the most dominant cats in the league.

The LOX = LA Clippers
They have shown much talent over the years, but have never won anything.

D12 = Orlando Magic
Would have been a joke without their best player

allen iverson = 50 cent
both take a lot of shots

Andre 3000 = Dennis Rodman
Unique Styles often overlooked their spectular performances

Jim J.. Ron Artest
Had items thrown them, didn't hestitate to !*$% somebody up

Cam'ron = Jermaine O'Neal
Didn't hestitate to help his man out

Suge Knight = Shaq
Most feared player in the game

Kanye West = Lebron James
Rookies of the year and we're all on our toes to see what they deliver next year

2pac = Wilt Chambelain
Before Jordan, he was elite, but both ill-fated. Also took jabs at Jordan, like pac to jay when he was with B.I.G

Eazy-E= Magic Johnson
Both retired from game with HIV
 
I put DMX for Sprewell because of the outside law problems and a few flashes of skill.

Jada for Malone because both had long respectable careers and have always been reliable even on teams/tracks with legends (dream team).
 
Cannot argue with Finesse I agree on most ... Who is Steve Nash, maybe TIP or Luda? What u think Finesse
 
I had to make a list of my own even thought OP failed on putting this together it is a good concept....

Canibus = Ed O'Bannon.... all that hype and never amounted to anything
Fat Joe = Robert Horry...never really did it by himself but he does have some rings and made some big shots
Jadakiss = Allen Iverson....never got the ring he deserved (a good album) but is well respected and goes hard (pause)
Eminem = Wayne Gretzky.....simply the best Caucasian to ever do it in any sport
Jay-Z = Tiger Woods.....because he impacts the whole game even when he's not playing
Nas = Barry Sanders.....In the game he has the stats, and the talent but in the long-run he held himself back
Weezy = Kobe Bryant.....he has the rings, and the talent to be the best ever and everybody hates on him except his #+** ryders
Cassidy = Floyd Mayweather Jr..... think about it
wink.gif

50 Cent = Daunte Cullpepper....came out a beast, gritty and was QB for a strong team...but we all seen what happened with both of them
Wale = Vince Young.....all the anticipation of greatness and we're just waiting to see if he can crack that level...and I heard he gets emotional
frown.gif

Cory Gunz = Blake Griffin....still a youngin but getting ready to do things in the league
Ghostface Killa = Dwayne Wade....consistent throughout his career and he got a championship
Killa Cam = Tim Duncan....because regardless of the situation....it's all business ask Elz and Jim
tired.gif




Vinnie Paz =

Faboulous = Rod Strickland - both from BK with loads of talent but just never seemed to pan out like everyone thought
