i love how his game stayed the same his whole life. You hear that some players played guard in high school but changed to a center in college and pro. Hinrich isn't super fast but his mentality and common sense is what labels his game. He'll make the pass or make the shot to carry his team, he's a classic example of a team player/leader
I recently found out he went to my high school and I think it’s so cool to have an actual NBA player go to my high school and now I go to that high school and I see his Bull’s jersey every time I go to basketball practice
Best PG to come out of the State Of Iowa so far 1 Kirk Hinrich Sioux City West 2 Dean Oliver Mason City 3 Nate Green Des Moines Roosevelt 4 Ryan Sears Ankeny Marcus Paige........ will have to see what he does in the Pros before he makes this Ranking
***** I think so..He's 3rd in minutes played I think for the Bulls and has played 900+ games for them..They'll retire his number along with D Rose, Noah, and maybe Deng
I do not know if you all notice but he traveled in that first clip... he dropped the ball and took 3 steps... and do not say im hating because Im a big Chicago fan, live in Chicago, and attends games on the regular!
No doubt. He has always been a good player. Politics is all im saying. I played with him. Im just a mans man and would never change no matter what my bank account looks like. He use to pick me up for school and everything. I started on that team with him, im converting them passes. But hey, that's life I guess. nerd turns out to be rich in the end with the beautiful wife I hooked him up with. the boy hasn't helped me do anything since Kansas so im just disappointed is all and hurt
Chicago misses Kirk, but man he is a true talent, no reason he can't be a top 5 guard, other than the fact that he is a streaky shooter. If he only just nailed his 3pter 45% of the time, he would be averaging about 20ppg and would spread the court wide open. His driving ability and vision is good enough to create for other players just needed to hit that 3 more consistently.
@bradcta Dude had one of the better First steps i've seen. fell in lov ewith his game the first two years. I think he just needs to learn to be aggressive now because he's now longer the sole one fore that team.
sitting on the bench so the coaches son and the rest of them nerds can shine. his dad was the coach, I was a starter with him. he don't fuck with us n e more, we aint in his tax bracket ya dig? lol
Kirch still plays mad D too, not a lot of PG's match up on his D. Remember he matched Rondo in that great series two years ago, to the point Rondo got frustrated and shoved him into the scores table. He also helped lead Atl past Orlando and would have made a difference in the Chicago series because of his D. No he would not have stopped D Rose but might have forced him to give up the ball more then Teage.
It is a team game, big men rebound and finish at the rim. Guards handle the ball, make shots and distribute and get rebounds as well when in position. He averaged a double-double all through high school and was an outstanding player and now in the hall of fame at Kansas. His pro career slowed down when he got injured, but he still is a good player and plays behind Derrick Rose who is arguably the best PG in the NBA, that's why he only looks average
couple of questions. 1. how was he a nerd 2. if you're telling the truth,who was the girl u hooked him up with 3. how did you get him to meet up in chicago if hasn't talked to you 4. was he nice to you in chicago
@Ovarykill I THOUGHT BASKETBALL WAS A TEAM GAME. WHAT ABOUT HIS TEAMMATES WHO ARE CONVERTING ALL HIS ASISTS AND GRABBIMG ALL THE REBOUNDS FOR HIM? WHAT DOES HE DO WITH OR FOR THEM NOW?
I got a story for you I know his mom I know him my mom knows him I go to West Middle School the middle school where he went to. I live in Sioux City where he comes from and where west high so I feel proud of myself
I went to Valparaiso with Jeff.. It is VERY political there. You gotta know the right people and right connections..(which he did) now he plays for the Cubs..
KH is my bro, just like other players from 1998-99 Champ season. I am proud i was number 25 im that team. Much love for my Sioux City West High friends
I believe you....I played with and against some future NBA and NFL players in highschool, that shit is all politics....I remember playing against Jeff Samardzija in high school, the guy wasnt that good, but was on a very good team at Valparaiso High School. He and his quarterback was picked over me to go to Notre Dame and I was doing great at many positions, just like Jay Cutler did when he was in high school...it sucks when you think about it sometimes, but people like to say that ur hating..
Heck no.lol. im trying to get this music management company off the ground. you cant tell by my computer lingo and grammar but im a journalist now lol I will always love the kid i just don't agree with how he treats his former teammates and former friends. I visited him in Chicago and had to pay for everything. I know he is not my dad and im not his responsibility but if I had millions I guarantee you no one I grew up with would be typing negative things about me. Lets put it that way
Unfortunately, he doesn't have that first quick step or good outside shot like he did his first few years. Too bad, he was really talented at one time.
If your from Iowa like this! If,your from Sioux city your the best
I went to Sioux City West today for a band competition, saw his showcase by the gym, and had to check out his high school highlights.
I played for south Sioux City high school and during my aau we practice in west high school coco was my aau coach I miss that place ..
Does it count that I played in the pep band during all these games? 🤣
