I once compared Damian Lillard to a black, athletic Jimmer 

That's an oxymoron.

That's like calling somebody a white, slow Lebron

Actually...I'm glad you bought up Jimmer because he might be the ONLY white dude I've seen compared to a black player. His senior year alot of people were calling him the next Steph Curry. Even though that was false...alot of people made the comparison.

Stephen is mixed

We're really not going to start this argument but his dad is black and his mom is mixed...and he identifies himself as being black

 

[flyerthandelta]

And where are they now....

What does that have to do with being Top 5 prospects at the time they were drafted?

Do you understand you're not making an OUNCE of sense right now? 

Clearly you being slow....don't sit there and tell me who's going to be ELITE and Whose Not!

idk if this was posted but its a great read.  this is just an excerpt of the excerpt.  The actual article is much longer

"While Johnson didn't host as many shindigs as Buss, the ones that took place were beyond compare. The Lakers point guard neither drank alcohol nor did drugs, but his parties were odes to excess and extravagance. Many Lakers agree the most beautiful women they ever met were encountered at Johnson's. They were models, strippers, actresses, exotic dancers. There was no hotter ticket than an invite to the mansion, but—while Laker players and opponents were almost always allowed—women had to meet certain criteria. First, they had to be gorgeous. Second, they had to be promiscuously dressed. Third, they had to be willing to do . . . things.

Johnson fancied himself not merely an entertainer, but a maestro. "If you ever die and go to heaven, you want heaven to be Magic's house parties," said Frank Brickowski, a future Lakers teammate. "He would have the finest girls in L.A. there. The absolute finest. And at midnight you had to get busy with somebody or you had to get the **** out. So if you were a guy, at midnight you'd get as close as you could to the hottest possible woman. Magic went around in this freaky voyeuristic way. He'd check on you. He'd go throughout the house, the pool. He'd order people to start doing things. All you had to be was near a chick. There were guys who would yell, 'Magic, she's not getting busy! She's not!' He'd run over and she'd get busy. Celebrity is seductive in L.A. Girls have this desperation about them, like moths to a flame. It's sad. But when you're young and single, fame matters."

Just because one was a Laker didn't mean sexual conquests always came easily. Yet Johnson wasn't merely the most eligible bachelor in Los Angeles—he was the most eligible bachelor in California. He once wrote of his rendezvous: "Some were secretaries. Some were lawyers. Quite a few were actresses or models. Others were teachers, editors, accountants, or entrepreneurs. There were bimbos, too, but not that many. Most of these women were college-educated professionals. Some were black, some were white, some were Hispanic, or Asian. Some of these women were very open about what they were doing, and some were more discreet. A few would even brag about all the players they had slept with. For others, this was all a part of a very secret life.

"Most of them were in their mid-20s. Every now and then you'd come across a teenager, but if you were smart you stayed away from her. These kids were simply too young—not only legally, but emotionally, too."

This was the Sodom and Gomorrah

You really do have the reading comprehension of a 3 year old.

Do you know what the word PROSPECT means? Saying someone is a top 5 PROSPECT...doesn't mean that you're saying they're GOING to be an Elite player...it means that you think they'll have the POTENTIAL to be. 

I never said who was GOING to be elite and who wouldn't. I told you how they're being PROJECTED. Going INTO the draft...Beasley and Oden were top 5 prospects. How they turned out don't have **** to do with how they were projected.
