What I remember about Greivis in college was how fiery and competitive he was. He played with kind of a swagger where you knew he felt he was the best player in the country. I didn’t realize he was done in the NBA by 30, but what he accomplished in college will never be forgotten
I remember watching him play at Maryland and the NBA, I'm surprised he lasted seven years in the NBA, which is impressive. I didn't even know he played high school basketball with Kevin Durant. Crazy how time flies!!
University of Maryland, my alma mater. I got there during his final year under Coach Gary Williams. Grievis is a legend in those parts. This is one I can appreciate🔥🔥🔥
Bro used to be nice something about those Maryland guards never could quite find their way in the league Franchise, Juan Dixon,Steve Blake etc. happy I can say I saw them hoop in real time. Salute to them great content brother🤝🏾
He was somewhat a crafty playmaker in stretches when I saw him in Toronto. He was such a in-between talent that never showed any consistency outside of midrange nor could defend that well .
This was my GUY! Watched him play multiple times at Monteose Christian while in HS, and multiple times at Maryland. One of my favorite players to ever watch At Maryland. Speaking of Maryland do a stunted growth on former Maryland Terp and lottery pick Walt “The Wizard” Williams. Appreciate all the consistent hard work and effort you put into these videos.
I think he maxed his potential. 7 years without high level physical attributes, coming in when these ultra athletes at the guard position started coming into the L. Low rated out of HS. 4 year college player. His heart, work ethic got him those 7 years..much respect to him
I can’t believe he was only 30 when he left the game. Bro was so fierce and fiery as a competitor I loved his game at UMD growing up here my whole life
Do Ramon sessions he was in the nba for about 10 years as a back up but was standout player for the university of Nevada playing with nick fazecus and was excellent in high school coming from Myrtle Beach South Carolina against Raymond felton
Another great job jc, for guys like this they just love the game so much they do anything to stay in it. He'll make a grate coach. He has skills to teach and knowledge to give to young players so they can be better off.
maryland games were so fun with him and eric hayes......Garyland then we would hit knox road .....cornerstone's or bentley's or thirsty turtle.....College Park were the days ......Gooooo Maryland =)
Great video. After watching this video, it makes me wonder how the nba have some many requirements. Even ones that are not even specified on paper. I know entertainment is important, but winning mentally is and should be important. Also I think he had came in the 90s he would have a long and more appreciated career. Those quotes won guys like magic and jordan multiple rings. That's having a winning mentality.
I Never heard of this guy until today so yeah not surprised Ps do Avery Bradley one of the best defensive players also his high school mixtape is still one of the best ever he definitely should be playing in the nba
Before I watch this video I remember him at Maryland, he was a tough player that was an extremely good college player but he was a 6’6 point guard with slow foot speed at that level and especially the nba level and to me he only scored because he was normally 5-7 inches taller than the man he was going against and normally out weighed them so because of that he could see over his defender all game and he could pass good but it helps when u can just see over everyone that’s guarding you compared to him being a small forward in college and going against guys that could match his size and that would be stronger than him half of the game he played. Also I remember when he talked about my Memphis tigers not being good and then we played Maryland in the ncaa tournament and slapped them around and it was a straight up Ass kicking, but I also remember him as a Memphis grizzlies and he was a all time favorite role players because his pick and roll and pick and pop game with Darrell Arthur was like Stockton and Malone on the bench for my grizzlies. Overall an extremely good player on the college level and a nice role player in the nba but he was always a streaky shooter and slow footed and I’m guessing that’s why he isn’t playing in the nba now or has a future in the league at just 30.
@@baconeggcheesepodcast9390 Luke Recker was a 6'6 swingman from Indiana. He was supposed to be the next Indiana great after Steve Alford and Damon Bailey. Cherokee Parks came to Duke and was supposed to be the next Christian Laettner. Xavier Henry was a one and done out of Kansas.
He should still be in tha league (imo) , cuz GV was an absoulute "floor general" & im pretty sure he'd still be like tht 2day... He'd be coming off tha bench for a Championship contending team if MF'ers cared about "ACTUAL TALENT" instead if skill sets!¡! Real hoopers will NEVA forget about Greivis Vasquez...
1) Vasquez was a Pepe Sanchez from Temple-type, who lasted longer in the NBA. 2) What type of "athletic, entertainment value" did Rajon Rondo have.......?

I always loved this guy. Always played with confidence. Big PG.
Really fun to watch.
Yeah he was a good player
As a pg county kid watching Maryland, I had high hopes for my boy
he champ now
SAME DAWG

I watched him the whole year at new orleans when he averaged 9 assists ADs rookie year I didn’t think he would be out the league so quick
What do you think happened
@@baconeggcheesepodcast9390 didn’t do any one thing better than anyone else
He had an underrated handle but his passing was something else. He always had a calm demeanor on the court
Bro used to be nice something about those Maryland guards never could quite find their way in the league Franchise, Juan Dixon,Steve Blake etc. happy I can say I saw them hoop in real time. Salute to them great content brother🤝🏾
Keith Booth, another Maryland product and Baltimore High School legend

Great suggestion
As a Duke fan this guy was a joy to watch no lie
Same from a Tar Heel fan
@@CraigSmithII growing up in didnt know I couldn't like dude and unc. Loved Forte and mccants low key
Tarheels fan here remember him goin nuts for the Terps straight baller
I definitely requested this a couple times through out the years!
I think he maxed his potential. 7 years without high level physical attributes, coming in when these ultra athletes at the guard position started coming into the L. Low rated out of HS. 4 year college player. His heart, work ethic got him those 7 years..much respect to him
I'm sorry u should be at 1 million subscribers by now..ur content it's beyond great💪🏾
Do Anthony Morrow next!! 🔥🔥
Hy
He did him already before the Pandemic
He is a massive overachiever. 4th leading scorer on his own college team. His career was spectacular, considering he was an overseas prospect
Who is that
He was a dog on 2k
Yo lmfao I never understood how so many “what the hell happened to that guy” players were cheat codes in 2k
2k14 legend
@@william58295dawggg I’m saying lol Josh Childress would give me buckets every time I played against him. 😂
yessuh he was!
He was my starting PG on the Kings in 2K14, I ran the 4, Boogie at the 5, Rudy Gay at the 3, and we traded for Jimmy Butler to run the 2 😅
I can’t believe he was only 30 when he left the game. Bro was so fierce and fiery as a competitor I loved his game at UMD growing up here my whole life
Yeah he had game in college
Shout out from the DMV ✌🏾
Do Ramon sessions he was in the nba for about 10 years as a back up but was standout player for the university of Nevada playing with nick fazecus and was excellent in high school coming from Myrtle Beach South Carolina against Raymond felton
He seemed like an extremely hard worker and got everything he possibly could out of his ability
I played against GV in high school. He was a beast. Really ahead of his time. He was a great player in the DMV. Him and KD together was a thing to see
This use to be my favorite guy to watch in late 2000s
Thanks for these. Ok speaking of Maryland you know you gotta do Trimble now! Please and thanks
Bro was a beast in the ACC
Another great job jc, for guys like this they just love the game so much they do anything to stay in it. He'll make a grate coach. He has skills to teach and knowledge to give to young players so they can be better off.
Definitely one of my all time favorite underrated players
Thank you for this. Loved his game at UM and I'm a born and raised Buckeye personally. Thank you Greivis.
Met him at his MD visit at college park when I was at Gary Williams summer camp. My man was focused on the freaks before ball 😂😂
I remember him at Maryland
The guy was tough at Maryland. He gave my Blue Devils some fits.
Yeah he was a whole problem
maryland games were so fun with him and eric hayes......Garyland then we would hit knox road .....cornerstone's or bentley's or thirsty turtle.....College Park were the days ......Gooooo Maryland =)
My favorite Maryland player of all time
Greivy was nasty at maryland
Love this video cause bro definitely was a leader. An I love your podcast keep up the good work brother
He was a beast in Maryland
This was my dawg 💪
loved him on the raptors

didn't realize he was coaching now that's awesome one of my fav college players as a kid
I Never heard of this guy until today so yeah not surprised
Ps do Avery Bradley one of the best defensive players also his high school mixtape is still one of the best ever he definitely should be playing in the nba
Salute!
Dude was crazy at Maryland
First time seeing him hoop was at a USA vs world tournament in Towson md. It was maybe early - mid 2000s
Vazquez was a fun player to watch at Maryland…a real triple double threat and a true gamer
One of my favorite college hoopers a real DOG
You should do Xavier Henry
Request: Gheorghe muresan. He and muggsy bogues were a classic 90s duo!
Loved him when he was playing for our Raps.
A true certified baller. ❤️
GOD BLess Y'ALL!!!!!!!
He dismantled UNC by himself 🤯
Hey bro can you do one on Juan Carlos Navarro, he was in the NBA for one year and did well but never returned
Damn It Was Like He Just Disappeared Outta Nowhere After The Raptors Stint
Use to love his game
With the acceptance of players like Luka and Jokic… I feel like greivis would have more success in today’s open floor game.
He was nice!
Shoutout stunted growth ❤
Crazy his prototype is lowkey a star lead guard now giddey luka type Mayb even sga
Politics of basketball Gre had major game
He was the last soul of that university Maryland basketball team
I remember him on the grizzlies kings and raptors back in the day
Tyler Ulis stunted growth!! Please do this video
hey jc, can you do chapu nocioni? As an Argentine, I always loved how he played, he always gave everything and was pure heart.
Can you do Zhaire Smith? This guy is the reason why Mikal bridges is traded to the suns on draft night 💀
Man got a cold name and a cold game🤣🤝
I remember that one year when he played for Memphis with z Bo and Marc gasol he was balling on the Plato’s
Playoffs

Huge fan of
Jordan farmer
Tj ford
Jamal Tinsley, Wayne Simien, Xavier Henry
Good segment, I was wondering what happened to him. All the best to Mr. Vasquez...
Michael Redd, Jason Richardson, Kevin Martin, and Desmond Mason.. You probably covered all of them lol I'm late
Luke Recker, Xavier Henry, Cole Aldrich, and Cherokee Parks would be great videos.
I never heard of them
@@baconeggcheesepodcast9390 Luke Recker was a 6'6 swingman from Indiana. He was supposed to be the next Indiana great after Steve Alford and Damon Bailey. Cherokee Parks came to Duke and was supposed to be the next Christian Laettner. Xavier Henry was a one and done out of Kansas.
He was like a hispanic version of Andre Miller.
Do one on Joe Dumars,great but unheralded Hall of a famer.
He was a bigger Jose Calderon.....loved the game and had psssion
Can we get DJ Augustin or Shane Larkin?
He played long enough to get a min nba pension
Grevius
Do Michael Jordan and why gambling and smoking cigars made him have to retire twice
Definitely thought he would have a longer career but his body betrayed him.
Do one on Rafer Alson next
Okay forgot about this killa tf 🤣🤦🏾♂️😩👍🏾✌🏾👌🏾🤞🏾
Greivis Vasquez was the Latino Andre Miller 😅
Dejuan Wagner vid next
Chris Wilcox next!
Who is that
U should do Otto porter he was a top 5 pick and now a bench player
He should still be in tha league (imo) , cuz GV was an absoulute "floor general" & im pretty sure he'd still be like tht 2day... He'd be coming off tha bench for a Championship contending team if MF'ers cared about "ACTUAL TALENT" instead if skill sets!¡! Real hoopers will NEVA forget about Greivis Vasquez...

There’s a nasty Rondo Mixtape out there with pretty good highlights
Just in time, I’m loading up 2k13
Please do Justin Sheppard - Jamal Magloire's brother.
Dope. Shit took me back fr.
College and pro basketball are different worlds
Alot of teams could use him rn
You’re definitely right
Jon scheyer was same boat
I swear the way it's looking you might need to start early on Zion Williamson lol. Might as well start saving files to use in a couple of years.
I liked em in the mill
Do alando tucker or Maurice ager
Can you do R.J. Hampton?
Can you find out what happen to Myles Powell from Seton Hall
