      Humble, humility, tough, aggressive are qualities everyone should possess and use them accordingly and selectively. What I see today with all people of African decent is aggressiveness towards each other with hate and animosity. A lot different from my growing up in Chicago. Everywhere it this hate and I'm more shocked when someone extend themselves in a humble, friendly way. Unfortunately, most of you take this as being a pussy, including women.

    This is why I like foreign players. They don’t care about being in la or going to big cities. They play because they love the game they don’t care what city. Too many American players see an opportunity to go to a nice sunny place and jump on it instead of being loyal or building a contender

      It's not always that simple though. You have guys that attempt to settle in a spot and be loyal like Isaiah Thomas, Kemba Walker, Russell Westbrook and Paul George. Then for various reasons management can't build a contending team, or they're kinda stuck trying to attract players because of the city they're in. Then you have dudes like Joel who landed in a fortunate situation in Philly or Siakim. My point is players can have all the loyalty in the world but management gets the final say.

    Jo's mother and father are just _incredibly_ strong people. Wow. I feel so, so blessed to get to watch Jo play for my Sixers, and as such I'm grateful to Luc Mbah a Moute, his foundation and those running it, Jo's family, the coaches that gave Jo his shot, and _Jo himself_ for taking it with everything he had to give. Philadelphia loves this man, but _every_ NBA fan should love him, even when he's dominating your team on the court. The guy transcends the sport in a way nobody else ever has -- not to say he'll ever be as universally known as Michael Jordan, but it's true -- he absolutely transcends basketball in a _unique_ way, and if you're a basketball fan, you're truly privileged to get to watch this man play this game. It's unequivocally beautiful.

    His mother's voice is so pleasing. Like, she could just talk and you'd fall asleep blissfully. I always knew growing up in the 80's after watching players like the Dream and Dikembe that African players would one day really vie for basketball dominance against African-Americans. They have the genes, they just don't have the resources and experience. But things are changing. There are SO many stars of African ancestry in the NBA from Oladipo, Bam Adebayo, Joel Embiid, Giannis, Biyombo, Luol Deng, Ibaka, Al-Farouq Aminu, Siakam, Evan Fournier, Ian Mahinimi,etc...

Those are the guys you want, who arent ashamed to empty themselves completely physically and emotionally to help the team win. And this is coming from a Raptors fan who went crazy after Kawhi's dagger and is grateful for the talents of Cameroon's Pascale Siakam.

    If I didn't watch this I would of been very ignorant about how hard some paths are to being a successful superstar. No family, language barriers, no friends around so much easier to go back home and forget about it. But no, he persevered and didn't give up. Just makes me look at Joel with a lot more respect, he really is the dream.

    I don’t understand how someone could be so cold as to make fun of a guy, living without his parents who are all the way in Africa, not knowing the language joining a huge high school trying to pursue his dream when he’s 16. Like honestly Americans need to grow up and learn that people are going to be a different race aside from you and also realize moving from somewhere whether it’s a different state or continent and they need to accept that because there is nothing anyone can do to stop that from happening 🤷‍♀️

    9:40 If you grew up in Africa in the 80s and your family didn't have 3 or 4 of those old albums that you brought out EVERY damn time you had a guest, then you didn't grow up in Africa in the 80s.

      @TheSushiraw, this is actually how the whole world used to be...
      You own your thing, you do whatever you want with it. Then the West came and decided to put regulations on everything.
      And i guess it's better when you want more organization.
      Our countries have other problems to solve right now. Perhaps the next generation will be told stories like 'we had goats and chickens at home and could kill them at any time. No one would bother.'
