    Thought Mike Williams from USC was gonna be a monster receiver in the league

    Thought SOMEBODY besides Rose from that Memphis team was gonna stick in the league

    I didn't think Kevin Love would be near this good

    Thought Sebastian Telfair and Lance Stephenson were gonna be the ? . Then I remembered NYC players got the ? jumpers in America

    Russell+Westbrook+Three+Point+Celebration.gif


    I knew he was super-athletic, but there was nothing about his UCLA career that made me think he would be an all-NBA Guard averaging over 20 on a top team. (within his first 3 years in the league.)

    I figured he would be solid point or 2-guard averaging 15-18 ppg at best.

    lol @ scouts saying he couldn't "create his own shot" tho.

    Which is why Scottie Brooks deserves more credit than he gets for OKC.

    He made two questionable and risky decisions after he took over as interim coach when choke-dog got fired...

    1. Moved Durant from SG to SF.
    2. Insisted on making a Russ a PG.

    I thought Alex Smith would never get his ? together. It was nice to see him thrive when Harbaugh took over and I hope he does solid in K.C.

    I thought the Texans were crazy for drafting Mario Williams over Reggie Bush......... They got the last laugh after those first 3 or 4 seasons.

    I was a freshman when he was a senior at DeMatha and I went to their biggest rival school, Bishop McNamara, and we knew he wasn't gonna be ? when he got suspended for knocking Keith Bogan's little brother in their locker room lol. ? was a known hot head and arrogant as hell.

    The "Rock". lol.

    And I ain't even no big boxing fan, but I happened to be in South Beach back in the day and ran into him at Wet ? .

    Nikka had just beat Lenox Lewis and he was on top of the world. He pulled up on a moped and did a donut in front of Wet ? on the sidewalk, lol.

    He was cool as ? and bought drinks for pretty much anybody that knew who he was.


    But then...

    At least I can say I partied on South Beach with the champ. *shrug*

    I knew he was gon' get knocked the ? out in the rematch because the rematch was like a few months later and he was in South Beach gettin' faded.

    I just appreciate him causing enough commotion that I got into WW without gettin' I.D.'d. lol

    ? was funny cause Nelly was like a block down on a moped too (for some reason, rappers and celebs be on mopeds like a muhfugga on south beach -- especially memorial day.)

    But Rock took all the attention from Nelly and he had this sad "what about me" look on his face. lol. And that's when Nelly was on top of the game.

    Reynolds hurt my soul!!! That ? was the truth @ FSU. I thought he was gonna be on some Peter Boulware ? in the league and then he went and flamed out. Tay was the truth too, but he was undersized tho.
