Rudy was that prototypical small forward coming in the league. Guys like PG and Tatum took it to another level.
Facts!
Danny granger
That's a fact
@thisisjustanillusion6486 that's a fact Danny Grannger was super Underrated when he played. I feel like he gets left out of being one of the best small forward during that era.
They’re not even better then prime Rudy

Its crazy how both Melo & Rudy were born in Brooklyn & raised in Baltimore..
Same person
Rudy Gay not from Brooklyn
@@deezydoe3learn how to read. He said BORN in Brooklyn. And Rudy Gay was in fact born in Brooklyn. Google is free big dawg.
Imagine if Melo stayed in Brooklyn. He'd either never have a shot, or be the goat shooter of NYC.
Right lol.....
Rudy was official! 💯

Rudy Gay Uconn days were peak basketball. His high top stocks with new J's every day and that smooth 1 on 1 game, it was unmatched swag.

I think his uconn team was the best 1 that didn't win it all but should have
Rudy Gay was a “2K GOD” And He Was “Mr. Middy” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 #LoveHisGame

Rudy and Melo almost sound identical bruh. Idk if it’s just me but I can’t tell the difference if I’m not looking at the screen 😂😂😂

@@joshua3727 the more I listened, it was easier to tell the difference haha

YO!!!!! On everything I love!!!! There is no place in America like Baltimore. Man it’s the REAL TRENCHES!!! No cap, no jokes, just real poverty man, shit is sad and frightening! I remember one time I was driving through headed back to Georgia and pulled over to take off my blazer. Man!!!!!! I don’t know what street I was on, but after looking around I jumped back in my truck and hit the gas! #SHOUTOUTSURVIVING
Stay Melo this is tough that west Baltimore love is awesome
Best NBA episode so far. Love the insight Rudy gave.
NBA LIVE 07, Rudy Gay was dunking on EVERYONE
Rudy shades 🔥💯
Melo went from "Stop snitching!" to a polite "She might be South African?" That's maturation
Rudy should be an honorary member man 😂 fire episode
Rudy was mad REAL! And hilarious as well, great chop it up episode!
Rudy always seemed like he didn’t play hard enough. It always felt like he had another gear that he only showed flashes of.
I always said that about him & PG they play too cool
@@johnnycage435 I was gonna say PG but didn’t want no smoke. 😅
I think the same when it comes to Vince carter
I dropped 71 in 6 minute quarters with Rudy Gay on 2K when he was with the Raptors. 2K legend.
50:21 Toronto is one of the best cities in the world...and those fans rocked with you. Glad they shipped you out and got a lot better too
It is but Americans dont care lol
Canadians are happy that America stays ignorant of Toronto.
"Toronto is the NBA's best kept secret" quote: VINCE CARTER.
Just ask Kevin Garnet his favorite city to play in.
Ask Charles Barkley what his favorite city is.
The real ones know. U.S cities are so boring.
Toronto is dope. Ya'll don't even know.
Lowry 1 Ring, Rudy 0 rings.
@@deeammo4604 those guys will party but never sign here. Torontos best fa acquisition is Schroeder
@@deeammo4604 those guys say that but never sign to play for toronto
Torontos best fa acquisition since 95 is dennis schroeder

Growing up in north Mississippi , Memphis being 50 mins away! I’ve always been a Memphis fan . I hated when they traded Rudy gay !!
So glad for this Interview as Rudy don’t do many. Let me say this, Rudy is one of my all-time favorite players. So, when he came to my kings I was juiced AF!!! I wish he was here now to experience the change in the culture. He’s right, it was terrible back then.
