I like how everybody’s talking about when Kobe came to town. However I remember seeing the Dr J documentary “When greatness meets class” And it showed when Julius Erving first played at Rucker Park and it was never the same.

[@samsneadd]

I have watched this several times throughout the years, way before he passes. When I first saw this yrs ago I was thinmon the same. U remember the black and white photo with ppl on the roof and out the windows of they projects watching Dr. J. Thst is an epic pic. Now watching this again, I think its cause Dr J was a legend especially in NY. But he was with the aba I think when he came out. Kobe was a current 3 time champ that just won. You will never see LeBron or even Jordan and I am a Jordan fan, come off a championship let alone his 3rd and go to the Rucker. That is like seeing Brady or Rogers win the SB and they go to the highschool in your town to play flag football with the guys that just happen to be there on a sunday. Mind you, Dr J was from NY yea it was long island. But he spent alot of time in the city. By this age Kobe was easily one of the hollywood faces for LA next to 2pac, snoop, cube, madonna, michael jackson and maybe Schwarzenegger. So it was not like this was a park in his home town of even philly or current home in LA. This is like Jay z or Nas seeing guys freestyling on the train and they jump in, prob not gonna happen. And I respect the hell out of both of them especially Nas. Now Eminem or DMX(rip) ???? yea I can them doin it. Guys that on top of they craft best of the best to still do it for the luv wtih the ppl that created their stardom. But, thats just what I think. So who knows.
