Kiwi and peeweee and trever was top pier in my time
I'm so weird bro. I can't wait for the Pro-jordan media to retire 😂😂😂😂 inject this shxt in my veins
So Jordan became the goat without the scoring title but Bron becomes the goat with it u can’t make this up Bron fans man lol
they were so thirsty to get some Steph hate off.
jordan’s scoring record would have been untouchable if he played as many games as lebron
people forget how good b Jennings was.. man retired so early too
Fire
Yeah that was a crazy time. Brandon was definitely the first star of filming. Nils and I covered him a lot. He was always cool. Lockout summer was fun also.
LeBron is NOT a top 5 ALL-TIME guy. He's below Kobe, so MJ shouldn't even be mentioned in the same breath.
I'm from the Mil and BJ had the city lit when he came in. Bogut was a beast before he broke his self off…
anyone else think homie in the middle kinda looks like kendrick ?
Still don’t understand how there’s no arguement Kobe got 5 Mike got 6 .. it’s easier too score now a days and bron is still playing and hooping ..so technically they did it in less
Good to see my guy Brandon doing well 💯 real life Milwaukee legend like he from here 💯💯💯💯
Derron Williams was a demon on Utah they really gave my dawg his flowers 💐 I love this pod
Brandon Jennings low key the “Soulja Boy” of hoopmixtapes.
Still hurt my heart my nigga tore his Achilles with my Pistons. He was playing like a top 5 point guard in the league.
I wish he never got hurt definitely deserved a ring that run in Detroit was crazy
They’re discrediting Kareem’s record that took 30 years to break to prop Bron up more! He has 5 MVP’s, and 6 rings but was considered the GOAT.
Yet Bron breaks the record and now he leapfrogged Mike and Captain? 😂
Brandon needs his credit. Been a fan of his since high school. His mixtape, that kicks cover, Gunnin for that #1 spot. He’s one of the best from the OG mixtape era. I loved the UA bloodlines and I respect him even more for knowing that movie Funny Games 🔥
exposed Stephs lack of defense very early with that performance
Monta Ellis one of my fav guards but he gets blame too for undersized shitty perimeter D and Golden States shortcomings before scoring exploded around the league and they draft splashing klay and playmaking draymond to go directly with the
3 PT explosion trend that happened at that time
Bruh Giannis is a fickin mutant bruh. Mix Kareem and Bill Russell together that's what you get. Dude is the Javon Kearse/Julius Peppers/Megatron of the NBA
who the fuck are these mofos. the mc’s are trash and don’t know shit about what they are talking about. every opinion in regurgitated. and they talk slow like ditsy valley girls. rob kardashian is a fan dude born w a snapback is a fan. and the other guy didn’t exist until gilbert and always does a fake ass laugh smh
Right before Jennings got hurt in Detroit, that month he was on another level. Locking up John wall, scoring 40, 20 assist games.
Legend has it is he went to Oakland Gyros in the Mil after dropping 55.
No defense now😂😂
The interview got better the moment dude quit trying to convince the viewers that Lebron is the GOAT.
If his career could’ve overlapped wit Giannis’
It’s funny cause Brandon didn’t make Steph fall in that 55 point game that was the year after lol
11:57 OJ is the player out that Class #UnSpokenGoat
Lebron is not the goat
But yall are big basketball fans lmao
So now Kareem wasn't athletic
Better drugs
How can he be better than MJ cuz of more points yall are crazy lmao
Well, LeBron has broken the record at this point, and the majority of people still do not think he’s the goat over Jordan so I guess it was wishful thinking on y’all part 🤷🏽♂️🤣✌🏽
The fact that y’all don’t have a poster of Jordan on the wall let me know how y’all really feel about him
gilbert said he saw da big nd knew he was finna cook 💀💀
The disrespect Marques Lovette gets in the mixtape conversation is crazy
Doobie dooo ba ba ba … Iykyk
Kareem just played. Never heard any player mention him aiming for the #1spot. LBJ can win 3 more rings & still can't pass MJ.
Great Interview We Need ( Fav Team Played On/What Team You Wish You We’re On/Fav Coach/College Guys You See Potential In/ Stupid Purchases ..🔥🔥🔥🔥
John Nichols
HE SCORED FIVE FIVE & AFTER THAT DIDNT DO ANYTHING ELSE IN HIS NBA CAREER LET ME PROVE MY POINT AFTER THAT HOW MANY TIMES DID HE SCORE FOE OWE OR MORE CASE MFing CLOSED LIKE SOME VIRGIN P~~SY
Your predictions sucked lol
Ryan Harrow MIXTAPE !
