crazy thing is Syracuse went to the CHIP his Frosh year. IF they had him in the BIg East vs Ray Allen and Allen Iverson it would have been crazy!
Quick story his oldest brother RIP Eric came to the park one day with some crazy fly orange Nike. We asked him where did you get those and he told us he just came back from recruiting trip from Syracuse University.
@@davidcoombs9282 his older brother Norman was cold asf‼️I experienced it first hand 💯
1:32 Melo's awareness to move the pillow back before it knocks the mug off. Smooth
Dad mode kicked in lol
Steph got that NY energy animated asf 😅
Lemme know when you done glazing
@MotionManJusto Get your ass on with that elementary shit we grown asf gotta be a og if u grew up watching them u still on some immature homosexual shit
@@BPS270 damn unc why you so mad y’all old heads different
‘07 Cuse grad from East Harlem .. it’s wild that Star could’ve put us Orangemen ON but Melo did us justice 😎💯🤘🏾🗽 BLEED ORANGE 🍊
Sound like the Kenny Anderson Georgetown situation. Georgetown was his dream school but John Thompson felt like Kenny should recruit them instead of the other way around. Big John said he never went to one of Alonzo Mourning's high school games and still got him
He been in China for like 20 yrs & still has that NY accent
Shit Embedded In Em
he talking to other ny niggas so its natural for it to come out.
Were you really expecting a Chinese accent
He also speaks pretty fluent Chinese
He’s black American born and raised in nyc
Bro I'm sooo happy Starbury back in the states, been a fan since GT, hope to see more of him
Steph vs Iverson....was absolutely insane...two different types of quickness
Marbury is a great listen. He'd have a great podcast if he ever wants to do that
Damn man I’m from Brooklyn and a cuse fan cause I went to college in that area. Would’ve been dope if Steph was there!
Would've been a killer 6th man!
Me too from the cuse and watched AI kill us at manley field house. at least Steph could have held his own
@@benchen771 Steph was better than ai
@@IknowMoreThanYou fun fact donovan mcnabb was walk-on and watched him dunk on georgetown haha
they were equal.
7PM is becoming one of the best podcasts. Melo actually lets the people talk and keeps it down to earth
As a lifelong Cuse fan, thats probably the most Boeheim thing that Boeheim could have done.
But he was honest. Because he would’ve been carrying a broken heart . But there’s no doubt he would’ve been starting by the second or third game
Marbury at the Cuse would have been CRAZY 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Damn I didn’t think about it until he said it, but it is hard for an undersized guard to come straight out of HS
He is not undersized at 6'2 185 great finisher too!
Steph made some great points
I met Steph at the Cuse camp in ‘87. I was 14 and he was about 10 or 11 years old. And we all could tell his was gonna be special. His older brother Norman was there too and we were in the same age bracket. Norman was one of the best players there and it was a lot of talent there. I was on the team with late greats Conrad McRae and David Edwards 💔❤️ Big East legends 🚫🧢
Great interview. A lot of good info
Eric and Don broke out after he said their little brother was not starting lol
Coach Boeheim telling Marbury we NOT going to start you was basically telling him you should go seek another school son! SMH 😂
Stupid egotistical move by the coach cause Michael Lloyd was nowhere near as good as Steph was. Steph would've definitely took his spot had coach gave him a chance to do so.
Lloyd was gone that year. But he was better than Lloyd. And Mike was tough for that 1 season too.
Boeheim and Cremins are Very Good Friends and both are from NY. I'm not surprised.
Lazarus Sims helped lead them to the National Championship Game. Team chemistry means something too.
Marbury, Sims, Burgan, Hill, and Wallace. That would have been crazy.
Anyone from NY or Chicago are the best story tellers 😂😂
Cuse lost the chip to Kentucky that year too.... Marbury would've been playing with John Wallace and Otis Hill. He starts for sure and they prob win the whole thing. Big East would've had Iverson, Allen, Kittles and Marbury....
I love here these old collage recruiting stories
this is all real, im a syracuse fan from back then and i remember EVERYONE in NYC knew Star was going to Syracuse. When they announced that sht on the news i was BUTT HURT!
outstanding...steph is really intelligent
Hope Marbury vs. Iverson becomes a book one day
Marbury at the Cuse would have been crazy!!!!!
5 Star recruits aren’t a priority to Coach, chemistry is. That’s been a gift & curse bc if they did get more 5 stars he’d have more than 1 chip, but Steph was so big of a name Coach B probably didn’t want that headache
I want to know why the Knicks brought Larry Brown over to coach knowing dam well the rocky relationship Brown and Iverson had, knowing Steph and AI are dam near twin brothers. And even when Brown the summer before benches AI, Steph, and a bunch of other players. A summer the Team “NBA” USA suffered its first non gold at the Olympics since the Dream Team in 92. Brown clearly showed he had issues with young black talent in the NBA and maybe over the years that wore off between him n Iverson. But the minute he stepped in the garden he sabotaged Steph’s final years in NYC
i'm from Cuse and i'm hurt. never knew this
Boehiem messed that one up bad.
Could you imagine Steph fresh out of NYC to Cuse, in the 96 chip in NJ vs Kentucky! They would've won that, and the legacy of Steph would've been so crazy!
My favorite PG as a kid! 💪🏾💪🏾
Dropped a random Harold Deane (UVA) stray. 🔥
Lazarius Sims lead them to the title game in ‘96 vs kentucky
Still couldn't touch Steph as a freshman. And saying that as a cuse fan.
@@jwell6095 saying this as a basketball fan. We saw who was in the ‘96 title game & who wasn’t. Im speaking on facts & you’re speaking in hypotheticals
@@jwell6095agreed
Ppl just say anything lol “lead” them to the title game is a stretch. Wallace and Hill lead them to that title game. Sims was literally the 5th option 😂😂😂 Marbury was light years ahead of him dawg stop
@@Dollar-zb2ik I'm obviously speaking as a basketball fan too. I'm saying as a Cuse fan that Sims eventually came on as the season progressed. With Steph there as freshman, and as talented as he was. Sims, who really didn't lead the team. Would've probably lost his job with the way he started the season off to the much more talented Marbury. Wallace, Todd Burgan, Otis Hill, and Jason Cipola with Sims running point almost had Kentucky. With Steph running that team, it would've been more potent. AND THAT'S A FACT!
Been a fan of Steph since 6th grade when he was dubbed the Roll Royce of point guards by Parade magazine!!
Shout-out Harold Dean he's from Petersburg Va...I'm from Hopewell VA and their our rivals and I will never root for them but that dude was HIM on the court no BS...HHS Blue Devil for LIFE💯💯💯
I didn't think he was ever going to get to the point.
Ask Bobby C about Marbury AND Kenny Anderson!
their are LOSERS
I can't believe that humdinger
Can't forget about when John Thompson came to the rib
The year of "when the Cuse is in the house OMG!", Jason Cipolla, Lazarus Sims were the back court that took Syracuse to the NCAA finals.
John Wallace was like Julius Randle with a jumper, Sims had bad knees but was probably the most consistent player on the team next o Wallace.
Otis Hill was the power forward, standing at 6' 4' with a crazy haircut. That was an amazing year
I can see why he don't rock wit Jay-Z. Steph a real one. He was prolly protecting his cousin Sebastian.
syracuse never came to my house but a skunk went in my pool one time
I agree with Coach...no player is more important than the team....Marbury should have known he was going to start anyway , just on talent alone..and time proved Coach right..Marbury had a tremendous amount of talent but he was never a team player let alone leader, look at his nba career..
Love this!
I’m thinking the same thing with AP n Texas … Yes they were senior laden teams n the person starting is not trash.. But he ain’t a LEGEND… At least open it up to competition… im sure AP n Steph would’ve won both competitions…
You might want to do some research, because Cedric Benson was a LEGEND in high school; he was nicknamed “The Governor” for a reason.
Benson wasn’t a slouch in college either, and Mack Brown - who was loyal to a fault - wasn’t going to bench a productive player.
I’m an OU football fan who’s very grateful that Mack Brown told Peterson he wouldn’t start ahead of Benson.
well well well/ I bleed orange myself & prefer no comment - but we should have never lost Kenny Anderson either/
Michael Lloyd was gone at this point during to academic reasons, right?
They say kids today are entitled but then say shit like this
You’re looking at it wrong he was the #1 player in the nation. That’s like telling Kyrie you’re not starting or John wall you’re not at Kentucky
@@ventotv3654Jim didn't even say you have to compete for the starting job.
Is it true stephon was going to usc in southern california that was rumor
Sounds like a play to curb entitlement, “everything given will be earned” type of thing. He might’ve earned the starting spot had he gone.
He would've looked nice in a St.John's uniform
No he didn’t John Wallace did he was player of the year
Steph should've put his ego aside and joined the Orange. People don't understand how SU was a mecca for NYC guards back in the 80's and 90's. Great Big East battles against UConn, Georgetown, Pitt, Boston College, Villanova, St. Johns, etc.
Sorry but AT that time Marbury was the #1 rated point guard in high school. You don't say you not going to start him. Say at least there is a chance and you have to earn it.
Boehiem f***ed that one up. Noway you go in that kids home and say that if you're really trying to get him to come there. His head was big by 95. I bet he wasn't saying that to the Pearl in 82-83 because he knew he had nothing as good at the guard position back then. Started winning and must've lost his mind. You tell him he'll at least have every opportunity to win the job to get him to come there. Unbelievable!!
People understand that the big east was a Mecca. But pretending Cuse was is hilarious.
@@KWash-gx8vw Someone that understands basketball.
C'mon Boeheim!!!
Jim. DAMN
Star in this MF! Salute
100% Boeheim’s fault! A #1 player in the nation and you tell him he’s not going to start????!!!!! HOW DUMB WAS THAT!!!! Notice how Carmelo’s story isn’t the same!!!
Marbury is the fuckin man
I love Steph. Hum dinger
Marbury is a nutcase.
Almost 30 years have passed and these two still haven't figured out that JB was testing him and he failed the character test. Their wiring dogged them their entire careers. Deep down it's all about me. Zero rings.
U don't know what the F! U talking about
BS - a coach already knows is starting 5 before Marbury goes against them ?
Excellent point. I love Steph but this is clearly the case. Maybe JB was a smidge premature saying Steph wouldn’t start, assuming Steph is accurate in how quickly JB said it.
@@RickNelms-ge7gu Coaches and bosses play mind games all the time to test players and find winners. Competitors with a hard charging commitment look adversity in the face and make it their mission to overcome. The sense of entitlement and the consequences shows in the career results of these two.
@@thejmc4074 You actually think the coach is going to keep a player off the court if that player shows in preseason practice that he's the better option. You haven't been in the real world too long if you haven't been pulled into a room and been told "we've had a change in plans".
From a Brooklyn, New Yorker and Syracuse alum. As great of a talent as Stephon Marbury was, Lazarus Sims, in that system, was a better fit to lead Syracuse to that title game! Marbury may have been hoggin', and worried about his bouncing to the NBA; Cuse may have gotten bounced, early. Sims, on the other hand, was a solid distributor with that team (after three years coming off the bench and learning that system), that allowed a John Wallace to emerge as a senior star. And, in Boeheim's zone, Sims was 6-4/6-5, with long arms that looked like an octopus; the prototype body needed to defend in the 2-3.
ML was a problem
S the Legend!!!!!!!
I can losten to steph all day man lol 🤣🤣🤣🤣
5:25 "the academics" LMAO.....as if.....
HELL 💥🏀NO......MARBURY......KNOTTZ START...... WHATEVER.....GREATZ 🎊💥 GEORGIA TECH__....oK......NBA.....
Nobody knows more about winning then Marbury lol
Bernie Fine home visit!?! YIKES!!!!
Without him we lost in the chip that year. He would’ve put us over
Disappointed in Jim. DAMN
Live Steph!! Pause
