[BIG LEEMELONE]

The professor might really be the goat street baller

 

[DLF]

10 years ago he ended Nike Basketball’s dream of a Kobe/LeBron finals and now....

Actually LeBron ruined that dream

Actually LeBron ruined that dream

LeBron averaged 38, 8, and 8 that series.

He did everything but provided his own color commentary.

I forgot Rashard Lewis and Hedo Turkogku shooting the lights out that series.

Dwight wanted to be Shaq so bad but he wasn’t close to that level of dominance

This.

D12 was way too “robotic” with his post game moves. Damn good defensive presence though. My goodness.

Definitely. I missed him by the day before when balled at this park I frequent here in houston right behind the toyota center.

Was that when Nike was doing those puppet commercials?

Yea offensively, it was extremely easy to predict what his moves were

Even when Shaq was predictable, it was still hard to stop him. He was just that much bigger and stronger than everyone else.

But his MVP year was something else. He had a legit bag going: the bully ball, but also jump hooks, a baseline turnaround. One of my favorite seasons I’ve seen from an individual player.

Weren’t they both juicing?

I think Dwight put too much muscle mass on him upper body, took years off his career i think.

 

[kingjay718]

Yes.

Even D12 openly campaigned for his own puppet after the Magic knocked out the Cavs.

This. He had a solid upper body but he had twig legs. If he kept the same bldybhe had from 2006-2007, he would’ve been fine. Def too much mass on his low back and below.

If they do hopefully they can get a Cwebb type haul if they get the 1st pick.

well Anthony Galea (A-Rod’s plug) lived in Miami....

30 ppg and 13 rebounds per game. He was in shape, motivated. That season he had was epic.

And you’re right. At least shaq had a variety of lives including his go to love. D12 didn’t fine tune his moves. He had a run with what he had but it would have eventually caught up to him.

we going to act like dwight wasnt legit top 7 players in the league in his prime ?

That plus routinely eating enough candy for an elementary school Halloween party

Dwight always had a childish mentality...the ho’s ate that man alive when he was in Florida

That and chasing too much ***

But mass is the same reason why I think Zion won’t have longevity

Sooner or later his ligaments will catch up to him
