Have you seen this guy play?

I went to one of his games earlier in the year and frankly he is unreal.  He\'s already said to be the next great basketball player.  And then after seeing the through the legs dunk in a game I was stunned.  I truly think he\'s the next Michael Jordan.  Hell he\'s only a senior in high school, the same age as me. :eek:

I saw a pregame of about an hour before that game.  They were pimping him hard core.  I didn\'t see the game, but I saw the stats afterwards and I remember seeing that the dude certainly represented.

Amazing.

I havnt seen him play except for 1 televised game. He was damn good for a high school player, but i think hell be another kobe bryant. Cuz kobe bryant is one of the best(as much as i hate to say it), but he hasnt lived up to the expectation of being the next MJ. But, then again, lebron could very well be the next jordan. Anyone know if hes gunna go to college or straight to the pros?

How about we stop labelling him the next MJ, and start calling him the first LeBron James?  People make entirely too many comparisons to MJ.

Maybe because Jordan is the best to ever play the game?

That will be sad if this guy skips college and then suddenly gets a career threatening injury. Oh, how I love being optimistic. :D

Or, pulls a McGahee and goes to college then gets hurt really bad.

Just like how Allen Iverson was supposed to be the next MJ?


:laughing: he\'s not

Post by: Bozco on January 08, 2003, 05:56:22 PM
When was Allen ever said to be?

And Kobe made 12 three pointers, not 13.

Acting as if it matters, either way its an NBA record, cock.

It was said about AI as well as Kobe and niether come close IMO.

As for injuries, thats what insurance policies are for. Magahee stands to earn 2.5 mil if he isnt drafted this year. Or something to that tune due to his injury. He took the policy out the morning of the game :D

Its honestly scary that a kid can play this good.  Isnt he only 17?  or 18?  No matter, i am about the same age...and i could never see anyone my age or close to it being that good.

Post by: shockwaves on January 10, 2003, 01:22:03 PM
He turned 18 in December I think.  I\'m actually older than him.  Scary.

What is your opinions on nationally televising a high school basketball game?   I felt it was wrong to do.  I mean the kid isnt even out of high school yet and you have shoe companies fighting over him.

So why is that wrong?

Post by: shockwaves on January 10, 2003, 02:06:49 PM
Hey, I don\'t mind.  Although, I think he should get a portion of the profits.  Afterall, he\'s the one everyone is watching the games to see.

I\'m sure he doesn\'t mind.

I know, it is probably great for LeBron.  But televising a "high school" game just seems wrong to me.  Although I shouldnt complain, i enjoy watching him.

Yea, he doesn\'t mind.. I read that he actually digs the attention. He\'s sure to get alot of coc...err pssy from all the publicity.
