is he doing ok today? i think he was as of when tark wrote his autobiography, which is suprisingly good.

such a big underground name and that's before the internet. the next magic i think it was

Wow! I vaguely remember him, but a lot of parallels to the 30 for 30 with Marcus Dupree ( greatest that never was)

better than magic? better than kareem? .............. "better than kareem" is really saying something as he was simply an amazing phenom in high school. maybe the greatest phenom ever - i do realize he has competition like lebron.

ok, didn't realize that si article was actually ultimately negative i.e that he was never as good as the myth - even before drugs.

The documentary has a lot of footage before he got shot that gives a glimpse into his skill set and how talented he really was. His floor vision and instincts were incredible. Definitely woulda been a PG in college and NBA. Think he ended up playing more 2 guard and small forward once he finally made it to the league. It's really worth watching, especially if you were a fan back in the 80's/90's era
