I had no idea!

If this was some cac with a missing finger, playing his sport at the highest level, we'd never hear the end of it. Remember Jim Abbott, that pitcher with the missing hand?

Gerald Green just gained another fan. I'm rooting for that breh to succeed, now.

I knew he was missing part of his digit but I just thought it was the tip of his finger. Didn't realize he was missing half of it.

Breh, I'm not saying Green is on Abbott's level. Abbott was a beast. I think he throw a no-hitter with one hand. :whoo:

But, Green is also unique. That nikka can't even palm a basketball. How do you shoot, properly, without most of your ring finger? He must use more palm action than most shooters.

I always thought that one pic from years ago was photoshopped and the missing finger was an internet myth :deadmanny:. Does this mean the story of Doc telling him to run to the baseline and him being :dwillhuh: is true too? :ohhh:

Anyone who is from Miami or North Miami to be exact and used to play at Cagni Park will tell you about this young dude who had just 2 fingers in shis shooting hand and was balling. I know the other hand was missing a finger or two also. He was born that way.

And by balling i mean the cat would straight up embarass some other cats on the cout. I cant front. Ive never beaten him. Dont know how he does it but dude only had a thumb and a pinky but yet could shoot lights out and would block anyone's shot.
He could never really dribble tho. I used to admire and hate the guy at the same time because he talked so much trash while playing :russ:

What's the baseline story, breh?

From what I recall they were at practice and Doc told him to run to the baseline and come back. Dude was like "what's that? :dwillhuh:" and was dead ass serious :dead:. That's all I can remember off top. There was a thread about in on :hamster:.
