GONE TOO SOON: Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf

[@joeschmoe2011]

His shooting was great. He had the best open court change of direction dribble that I have seen.

[@themichaelphone]

@@joeschmoe2011 his release was sick too. Shooting off balance and his change of speed was next level too

[@nassiglutt6587]

Can't believe the duo who sent the no 1 seed Gary and Shawn packing are gone together😰

[@bentonja668]

One of the absolute greatest college guards of all-time. True freshmen consensus All-America guards are rare indeed.

[@bentonja668]

If Chris is the greatest freshman guard of all time, it's only because freshmen weren't eligible for varsity when Pete Maravich played at LSU. Pete averaged 43.8 his first year with the varsity (his sophomore season).

[@bentonja668]

That was his PPG, not his FG%. Also no 3 point line (Pete, I mean)

[@themichaelphone]

@bentonja668 yea I never saw Pete. I heard about him tho. But would you question his competition, just asking

[@scottallen5269]

I was lucky enough a friend had an extra ticket and I got to see him play in the 89’/90’ season… maybe 90’/91’ Dude was so quick. And that pump fake he developed was sick!!! I think he even got Jordan with that pump fake. Much respect

[@antoniotutt4894]

He was a great player! Had crazy hops as well.

[@TerrellLemelle]

Always gonna be a Louisiana Legend

[@d.michael372]

Yeah the league mos def black balled a great player like Abdul. Thank you for that John Stockton take, I absolutely agree!

Magic Was the greatest point guard

[@terrancethomas9792]

He made a turnaround 3 pointer against Florida. I’m a Gator but that day I became a Chris Jackson fan.

[@Gzimkodra]

Good player scored well and had a good shot. The problem with him he was very religious which is fine but it interfered with his play. He chose to play some night some night he didn’t

[@douglascarlson9006]

This was pretty good, Michael.

@@douglascarlson9006 thanks preciate it💯💯

It's too bad he's gone. He was still young

[@themichaelphone]

@@JordanJacksonTyson he isnt dead. i meant gone from the NBA too soon

[@dariusdarden9670]

😂

[@benn746]

Steph Curry before Steph Curry. If he were allowed to play the way they allow Steph to play now he would have easily challenged MJ for the scoring title every year. I was lucky enough to see him light it up in High School when he played at the old High School Shootout in St. Louis. I believe he set the scoring and three point record for the tournament. In like 1990 he was already shooting threes like that.

[@themichaelphone]

@@benn746 he was definitely ahead of his team could you imagine if he played in the league today.

[@ShafiqHusaynmusic]

Horrible title

I lived in Bossier City when he was in college & modded my HS game to match his..my avg was only 15 ppg a game but it got me a full 'ship to jr college..RIP Dikembe

He's still alive bro change the title lol

[@donjuanismo]

Why does the FILM QUALITY of his FRESHMAN year footage look like it was filmed in 1960s WILT chamberlain era? The frame rate is so slow. Look slike its 5 framer per second. (60fps is universal standard today's current gen, next gen is 120fps.)

@themichaelphone Really? I have to know you to know what your intentions are? Well, I'm not stupid. And you can cover up all you want. And if it wasn't your intentions then you're just straight up daft. Save your explaining for someone nieve and gullible.

@@themichaelphone I get that but as others have stated already, you know what you’re doing with the title and what it implies. It’s clickbait that capitalises on people thinking he’s passed away. His family and loved ones might come across this title - it takes less than five minutes to change the title so nobody has a misunderstanding. Just put ‘Gone from the NBA too soon’ if you genuinely mean what you’re saying and aren’t looking to mislead anyone.
