    you both make valid points to be remembered as a great he needs to shift the culture he has had a big impact however which gets overlooked but kendrick does get praised for every little thing he does and its as if people are scared to go against anything he does. As for the songs everyone hates on nice watch was trash so was hello i dont understand the she knows hate though. I do feel like i want cole to do something bigger than he has because he is capable of it and i want him to fufill that and thats my stance and no hate on kendrick he is amazing and imo has dropped 2 classics back to back.

    But he has made a impact in the game. No one is going to forget Cole bruh, even if 2014 FHD was his last album. Cole done cemented himself in the game.

    And like I said, do I suppose to hate on s--- he does just because? I'm not trying to prove no point to none of y'all, if it seems like I don't criticize him enough , oh well....

    And Cole has influenced a lot of people in his time in the game. Lute, cozz, bas, logic, Joyner Lucas, joeybadass, just to name a few.

    Do you even know what you're saying? So you saying Cole ain't made no impact in the game since he's been in it?

    bowen was a beast defender but alot of his tactics arent allowed anymore. he used to go right under the shooter as they shot all the time to mess up their rhythm and have people like kobe land on him causing them to twist their ankles.

    I think Kendrick has only 1 classic album and I don't like tpab that much. The reason people praise Kendrick is because after dropping a classic, he basically went left and challenged himself. He did something unexpected even though I don't think he succeeded, Of course that causes people to overate him. I'm saying that whenever Kendrick is mentioned, @JimmyBucketsNC hates on him. There's no inbetween for him when it comes to Kendrick because he's always compared to Cole.

    Yeah i feel you its hard though for cole fans to not end up starting to resent kendrick cause the love he gets in comparison to cole by the hiphop community its something cole had to get over to make 2014 forrest hills drive and something we just have to accept.

    He's impossible to guard fam. Trying to shut him down for 48 mins can't be done. You can chase him off the 3 pt line all you want, can't chase him from half court tho. Dude can pull up from anywhere and has the quickest release ever. He's such a good shooter that he doesn't even need to set his feet/follow through to hit a shot.

    I can't tell if you're agreeing with me or not. But I agree with some of what you're saying. I'm not saying any son of an NBA player is capable of making it to the league, but all of them inherently have an advantage over kids without dad's that have those resources and connections to basketball. Sports is as much about talent and hard work as it is about exposure and opportunities, both to play against other talent and to be developed.

    Idk even know why I mentioned it because I would rather just appreciate Steph's greatness. He's as fun to watch as Kobe and LeBron have been to watch, the only other all-time greats I've witnessed for their entire careers.

    No doubt, I'm with you guys. I was just making a Skip Bayless statement to stir the pot.

    I remember when there were a couple videos exposing Bruce's dirty tactics. Good defender but had his cheap ways.

    d---. This is a great point. I'm realizing now that there have been so many guys that you can never stop, but you just hope to slow them down or that they have an off night. Guys like Kareem, Jordan, Shaq, Kobe, Lebron, KD, etc. And Steph is definitely in that group, but his game is so low maintenance that he's harder to stop. Like all the other guys needed more going their way to have big nights, but Steph can shake anybody and get the space he needs, and like you said he can get a great shot off from any platform or place on the court.

    Hot off the press, folks: Cole's new single, "Leap Day" drops tomorrow. It's a metaphorical track, referring to Cole "leaping" over the competition of his rap peers.

    "I see you lookin' green cause the money comes in heaps here
    Feelin' froggy? Get to jumpin, boy you know that it's a leap year."
