seems like a good guy and was unreal when he was young

Upon closer examination of his career, Bowie still managed to put up serviceable NBA numbers: 10.9 points and 7.5 rebounds per game over 10 seasons.
“When you’re drafted ahead of Michael Jordan, everything else is going to be secondary,” he explained. “So I don’t blame the public, by any means, for looking at my career as a failure. But this documentary gives them a different perspective of knowing that I did play 10 years in the NBA.”
Count one of his lyrical detractors as a possible convert. When Jadakiss was interviewed by the “Going Big” producers, they informed the rapper of Bowie’s final career numbers.
“A lot of people never average double figures for 10 years,” Jadakiss said. “A lot of people would never even last 10 years in the NBA.”
The scene didn’t make the final cut, but it does prove that Bowie might not deserve such a bad rap after all.
