Just watched Above the Rim, a nikka almost cried on how things done change

[Kaypain]

Good acting.. check
Good soundtrack.. check
Quotables.... check
Eye candy ... check
Good basketball scenes.... check


As generic as the story was. This movie is so underrated. My favorite basket ball movie of all time.


When Danny Green was busting the Heats ass in the 2013 Finals and broke that record..all I can think about was that Tupac scene where Shep was busting they ass and that nikka was furious and starting kicking chairs and shyt.






Tupac as a coach.... goat
He'll be a better coach than Mike Brown

remember dude on that red team who kyle was guarding and he was shytting on nikkaz
throwing the ball up on the board den dunkin it

throwing it behind nikkaz back
crossing the shyt out of nikkaz

That was speedy williams harlem street ball legend

Pac's fake ass scar

So many classic scenes

Pac's fake ass scar

A little gem.. When Pac got arrested for the rape trial that he ended up doing time for it was during the filming of Above The Rim and he has that big fake scar on his face when the cops put him in cuffs..

There were rumors going around that the chick cut Pac trying to get him off her floating around the hood at the time...

[Buzzed Lightyear]

I still think Shep should've gave Kyle them Boonks.

[big bun]

Shep dropping like 38 on 'em in like five minutes was the best thing since...since...the King and Duck.

Boogaloo saying Flip looked like Daffy Duck with his beak shot off

Kyle having Montross as his nemesis was so real to me . That one white boy who you were better than, but always struggled against.

Bombers, Bombers, Bombers, championship!!

I used to bring momma's food stamps to the bodega and they was laughing at me! Can you believe that! They was laughing at me!

that shyt reminds me of the story of streetball legend, joe "the destroyer" hammond, and when he strolled into the rucker at halftime and dropped 50 against julius erving and a few other pros would clearly couldn't guard him and won the MVP for the game. duke was ill but was making so much money in the drug game that the cash they pro leagues were offering was chump change for him.

@ what Dr. J told him after the game.

"They didn't know who to put on me," said Hammond. "After the game, Doctor J came over to me and shook my hand and said 'Joe, everything I heard about you is true.'

too bad he was so deep in the drug trade.
