Really dope interview. Being the same age when I first watched him in college, I felt like he represented young men our age to a T. And when he made it to the league he represented us even more. So when guys like him, Penny, Marbury, killed it on the court and got the respect they deserved, we all made it. Young, black, in love with the NBA, they made me proud as a peer.
