My mans had the city buzzing off SNIPPETS, tho. N' didn't even have a tape out & he was hottest in the city...
His tape was supposed to drop on 9/11 (hence the "Osama" theme").... Had deals on the table. Because his sound was so distinct from the typical "Detroit sound", he prolly had the best...
First time Ive ever watched MSU in the FF with no nerves. They were playing with house money on this one.
Most impressive Izzo tourney run. Trice went out like a G.
Team should be cold next year with Harris/Bess/incoming recruits.
What I was fearing when the interest was 1st reported. Last thing you wanna be in the NBA is middle of the pack. Either have a team who can make a legit run or be rebuilding w/ young talent. Pistons ownership/management think this **** is MLB/NHL: get in the playoffs and you got a shot.
They...
Eh, would have rather seen the Pistons save the cap room...let the young talent develop another year, take lumps, aimed for Smart/Harrison or another scoring wing alongside Pope in lottery pick next year (Top 8 protected) in what will be one of the more loaded drafts in a decade-plus (on paper)...
Made it sound like a combo of both.
Not that I think he was being disingenuous, but he said in an interview a couple weeks ago that the reason he wanted to wait until the college season started before committing was to see how well his potential choices were playing/what type of chemistry they...
Yea, reading that made me :{.... When I was envisioning MSU's team next year potentially w/ Jabari, the main thing I got excited about was how him & Dawson would have been able to play off eachother. Jabari in the paint/high post with Dawson cutting, similar to what Dawson was doing w/ Draymond...
Jabari to Duke was the word since his visits so Im not surprised at that....
...but damn, prolly the deepest/most talented class Detroit has had in damn near 20 years or so (at least 3 of which are talented enough to be 2-and-through 1st round picks), literally all of which had MSU as their...
Ross should've begged Usher for that 'Lemme See It'....that woulda been the one for him. I'd bet he still got bangers for his album, but he really cant find that mainstream record for the label to run with....
Felt a slight way last night about Denver snatching Quincy Miller a pick before Detroit was , thats who Joe D wanted in the 2nd, damn sure who I wanted....
Still need a wing who can create his own shot, but in all, this may be the first time Ive been excited about a Pistons draft in...
I feel where Fest is coming from, but at the end of the day, the consumers should ALWAYS be blamed before the artists/labels. Labels just want to profit off of what people are willing to buy, nothing more, nothing less. There's not much of a "secret evil motive" with them. If rappers were...
