Grant Hill’s Response to Jalen Rose

[S2J]

niggas think the baskeball team of the 80's and 90's reflects georgetown. I was suprised, thats a white ass school, its just in DC prolly not as white as duke

its MORE white than duke, bruh...and a BETTER school rep wise

 

[sdotcarter111]

Fuck duke and any nigga that steps foot on they campus.

 

[marc123]

smh. nigga i aint readin all that shit

 

[d.green]

Duke > G'town academically.

Duke is ranked 9-10th in the USA, Gtown is in the 20s (which is great also).

check the stats.

 

[infamous118]

last line was ether lol

 

[infamous118]

Calling them uncle toms was stupid though

 

[Topps]

Ol shit, it's 1992 all over again.

Chris Webber is ethering Grant "Coon" Hill.

The only thing that Rose said that was correct was that Duke and other programs recruit certain types of players. But that's like saying that the sun will rise tomorrow. Everyone knows that shit

Overall dont tell u shyt. Georgetown Law seperates it from Duke

Duke is an all around good school. Theres plenty of those. Georgetown Law is like Johns Hopkins medicine, that alone makes the enitre university better...

 

[S2J]

so y'all admitting Georgetown is a better school, and yet recruits "inner city kids"...

what is the point now?

Its proof that the 'acadmics' and 'pivate university' excuse is bullshyt.

The mentality and snobness of Duke is specific to just that school

Michigan is a GREAT school, just as white as Duke, but their fans dont act like that.

Duke's yuppy rep is b/c of who they are, not just b/c they r white

 

[Darius]

i guess Hill had more to say

edit: just read the full thing. nothing worth reading in there

 

[nycest_1]

Because he's always shied away from being, out on the court, playing in the same manner as the avg. Black, inner-city player

but the average black inner city player is a coon. and embarrasment to inner city people let alone blacks lol.

1 "type" of black doesnt define the entire group lol

grant hill is no more an uncle tom than jalen would be the alternative; a slave.

smh This is the essence of the argument right there

Like Jalen Rose said, there's a A team, and a B Team

The IC is apparently FULL of B team nggas.

Fact: If your age 26-34, and your ditty bop wasnt birthed by Michael Jordan, Deion Danders, Martin, or the Fab 5...then you have none. You are a B team ngga. You are a 'Duke' ngga.

Guess jeans, Jordans when they ACTUALLY came out, not 'retros', Triple Fat Goose, Starter caps n jackets.

THE 90s!!!

On errything i have a old Miami Hurricanes Apex jacket at my momma crib RIGHT NOW. Cuz i couldnt afford a Starter LOL

I say all that to say this:

If you look at that picture of Jalen and Grant at that time and dont understand what Jalen is sayin...then you are a B TEAM ngga!

You are either 1)young, 2)Not black and the IC is how you vicariously live the culture, 3) u were a lame/gump back in the day

You are not even built to understand what we're speakin of. Dont be mad, just accept it. Not better or worse, just different.

Co-sign this entire post...good shit

 

[allreasoned_out]

its over: 2012! is either just incredibly foolish or is pulling our leg.

I can't believe this is the type of clown on here acting pro-black. More pro-kkk is you ask me.

the people highlighted were team b niggaz though
and your photo is even sillier because grant hill was marketed to be the next mike.
like it or not all those so called team A niggaz were ridin g hill when he was supposed to be the next mike (who ironically was a team b nigga by your criteria)

i think you misunderstood what jalen was saying too.
jalen as a youth was confused as to why top talent from the inner youth wasnt considered for recruitment by duke.
and as an adult he shoulda been able to better assess the situation and place the blame where it belonged. on the duke coaches and recruiting staff.
but like a true crab in a bucket ass nigga, he attacked other fellow young black males trying to get ahead.

enny? point of motivation? or just plain grime jalen was wrong and even worse got played like a lil dancing monkey by espn who milked this bs fake controversy for ratings

 

[allreasoned_out]

HUH? so he's an uncle tom based on how he plays ball?

I know. I'm beginning to think dude is mentally unstable.

 

[Smo-King Locs]

You know when it's a bad thing, sboog, when you're describing the new (post-2005) nba! That's the new Duke-that-Jalen-referred-to-20-years-ago and players who are commenting, do understand that if they're one who's bought into it.

...the new, white-washed, Suburbia-themed, NBA wants that type of player!

Why do you think Chris Dujon will always find work, on nba rosters? While A.I. Jamal Tinsley and Marbury, getz...no burn?

Who's next to say something? a non-Duke player? ...Channing Frye? Landry Fields? Adonal Foyle? what?

i'm not a Duke fan...i'm a die hard UNC fan...always have been and always will be...I hate everything about Duke...i treat them like a rival gang and don't even refer to them as the *lue devils because i feel it insults the great UNC blue..but you tripping if you think Chris Duhon going to Duke is why he's in the league while Allen Iverson, alcoholic, gambling addict, etc. and Marbury, attitude problems, are out the league because they didn't go...AI went to Georgetown...a very white-washed but highly regarded school...they just fucked their own careers up

Steph was getting contracts left n right bruh, he turned dat shyt down cuz he was thinking of bigger pictures ,When the Celtics offered him a contract for 2009-2010 he turned it down saying it was a business decision. A few years previous he said he'd rather "own than be owned." He is focused and carrying out his business plan - niggaz think marbury is just a ignorant dude from BK...he's from the home of hustlers...

He says he simply wanted to go to China because he sees playing there as a smarter financial decision. "Why go someplace if it's not going to put you in a situation where you can continue to grow?" he says. "There's definitely going to be a lockout in the NBA after this season. The owners do not want to pay older players, and the players will cave, because they're only focused on now. The owners, they're looking at this long term, like a fifteen-year business investment."

Aside from the potentially imminent NBA salary chaos, he's attracted, like many basketball hustlers, to China's estimated 300 million basketball fans, hoping to infiltrate its $6 billion dollar athletic-shoe market with his sneaker/apparel line, Starbury. Launched five years ago in a joint venture with retail clothing chain Steve & Barry's, the Starbury brand was meant to offer affordable apparel for those who couldn't afford to pay $150 for a pair of Nikes. Since Steve & Barry's filed for bankruptcy two years ago, Starbury has been dormant. Marbury's goal is to find an investor to help distribute the line, then open standalone stores across the country. He says he'd reached a preliminary agreement with his previous employers in Shanxi to do just that, but the deal fell through, which helped lead to his departure.

His partner in all this is White, a 36-year-old Houston native who's lived in China on and off for over a decade and is a jack-of-all-trades helper for Marbury. Having played in the CBA himself, he understands life as an African-American expat in China. Marbury got in touch with White last summer and he has been the Worldwide Wes to Marbury's Lebron James since — White is at every game, practice, and event and seemingly knows everyone in the league from players and coaches to security guards.

 

[Smo-King Locs]

good drop, Smo, but I'm mainly talking about the attitude towards Marbury as a player/skill-set of that urban inner-city aura which the nba now frowns upon...which is why D'Antoni/Walsh had nerve to pull that H0-Shyt on him, for months, while he was still in NYC

dem niggaz was foul 4 that... donnie is on his way out n so d'antoni...niggaz could badd mouth isiah all they want @ least he never pulled some lame shyt like that..zeke is the reason why alot of niggaz r set 4 life.... rose has that street aura n he's a face of the leauge...
