@@TRJ2241987 you're absolutely right.....he was BETTER than Curry Let's have a look at who each of them played with, I followed his career as well and TRUST ME: He was better than Curry in college and in the NBA as well

@@coachcarter8238 fam, how many players can say that they played a game like that against the greatest of all time? Not a play, or a series of plays, but a game, a whole game. Plus, if you look at his career highlights, dude could ball, straight up.
And that's the only way I could watch him play is when they played the bulls because I'm from Chicago and I was in awe with that man, because he could shoot from anywhere and really did used to killus 😂.
Yeah....North Gulfport, MS in the building. Man I grew up in the same hood as him. This dude would be up at 5 AM dribbling and shooting before school everyday! His high school, college, and pro highlights are unreal!
Soria City’s own ✊🏿 moth “Da North”😂😂😂 I get what you meant bro ... B Frank Brown was lit( 2,500 every game) during the late 80’s... he single handily put GPT & “Da Coast” back on the map... good times back then... one thing I hate hearing,”he was Steph before Steph🥱😮🤡😡😡😡)... more like “Steph is Abdul Rauf 2.0
I went to the same high school he did years after he left. He holds a school record for the most free throws ever made consecutively. 1,056 free throws in a row. Coach Jenkins would track all our free throws after practice.
I was waiting for this! There's a great interview of Mahmoud called "My Story", it's a great listen because Mahmoud is an intelligent individual and a talented storyteller
I was inspired by his "swishes only" training, when I work out by myself my shots don't count if I don't swish them, it really does improve your shooting
@@stuntedgrowth super true... sometimes when my shot is off I spend at least one hour trying to get 50 midrange jumpers to swish (not in a row, or I would have to literally live at the park 😁)
I grew up in the era when he played. For all of those that never watched him play, you truly missed out on an extremely underrated player. It is true, he could shoot Steph Curry outta the gym. It’s sad he got pushed away from his biggest talent. Much respect to him
Umm I think they are braver but not MUCH I think standing for you cause can only be looked at so unfavourably like kappernick thought the worst that would happen is he get traded and he WAS moved by ALOT of events that got NO exposure
Like they legit stood for the same issues lol well the sat or took a knee 😂 and the nba reaction makes america sus as hell as a whole cause WHY are his or Colin's views radical ? They both just didn't wanna listen or stand and if they did that WITHOUT A CAUSE it wouldn't have been a problem cause it's not until people found out the REASON that there was this explosive reaction in BOTH cases tbh I don't understand Y it's a PROBLEM cause MOST bigger athletes take knead through the pledge cause it takes place amuongst announcements and they are unaware it started are stretching or are just plan tall or fat it both I mean I WISH we could stop acting like this isn't what it is...it's subliminal destruction of acknowledgement of cruel treatment by a set group of people or an establishment or organization like if this country would be HONEST I think we could ALL work through this but it doesn't wanna do that cause it doesn't wanna stop abusing the minorities and the poor cause yeah that's STILL a thing america is sick and we need to heal our selves of this weird old hate and to acknowledge the issue is step one...so how about we as a country stop pushing back on acknowledging the situation
Craig Hodges and Abdul Rauf understood something about being a man, especially a Black man: life is not about being selfish, famous, and rich. You have to be a God fearing man and help your people do the same, or else they’ll fall into stereotypes that ultimately won’t benefit them in this White world, to say the least.
man when I restarted playing basketball three years ago after more than 20 years dedicated to playing other sports I watched so many Abdul Rauf videos on how to shoot... it's just amazing to watch
Hey Sarunas Marciulionis was a gun and was one of the first Soviet players to successfully play in the NBA. A hall of famer who opened the door for those behind the iron curtain. He had stats that were comparable to Rauf during his stint with the Warriors
I always thought Abdul-Rauf should've been born 30 years later He would've been a beast in today's league; his style fits today's game that's point guard friendly His jumper was wet, and still is Salute 💯
Everything you said right but you dont know who Sarunas Marciulonis is? Come on man look up Run TMC era Warriors he was their 6th man or Lithuanian Dream Team
Met him when the Big 3 came to Detroit...real humble dude, took a pic and sat there and talked to me for about 10 mins....we talked about this same subject
By the way, you really need to check out Šarūnas Marčiulionis. I know you mentioned you never heard of him at 9:20 but he was a beast in Europe and was getting 18 a game off the bench with GSW with Chris Mullin and Tim Hardaway. Dude is actually a HALL OF FAMER. You should really check him out.
@@authornahsun634 Yeah man! He was tough! But I think he came off of the bench most of his career. They would bring him in and would get 20 points almost instantly lol
Same here. Went to school with his younger brother. Before he moved to Turkey Creek (Turn Key), he lived in Harbor Square Apts right off 28th Street. I lived there and would see him at the community center everyday going hard on the court.
I haven’t been home in 5 years. Last time I was there, I caught up with some old friends who used to live in Racket Club of pass road. I grow up in willow point on Victory/Cheshire.
Great piece! Nailed all three stunts! It just goes to show that no matter the talent (and he was niiiiiice), if they are not feeling your individuality n’ belief’s and you don’t fully comply, they will start their vindictive campaign to push you out. Good stuff!
I have so much respect for this man on and off the court. He was not governed by money. The NBA did not break and he did not take any crooked handed deals with any one or anything that contradicted his faith. No one comes close to him not even Colin. Good video bruh. SHALOM!!!
Bruh, I really like your channel but It's not a good look when you said "He was traded for a guy I've never heard of". Especially if the guy you're talking about was a serious hooper, multiple Olympic Medalist and a Hall of Famer. Sarunas Marciulionis was a beast! He's the one who brought the eurostep to the NBA. His injury cut his career short but was killing dudes in the league before that. He'd probably be a good Stunted Growth video.
@@Kuno1923124 he definitely was the first to popularize that move... i can still see Magic Johnson turning to the refs and making the traveling call with his hands after Sarunas would hit him with the eurostep
Didnt even watch yet but I’m glad you did this video and captioned it this way .. This brother was/is truly nice wit it and so overlooked from a coach and analyst level . I think anyone who watched him play would say he’s 1 of the most talented guards as far as skill set
Man, Isiah, Tim, Michael Adams and Rauf were my guys. I copied so much from them. God bless this man! Definition of a gentleman and believer even if I am not Muslim. He was faithful to his beliefs in the lord and that is heroic for anyone of any faith.
Excellent as always Bro! One of my favorite PGs! I had a chance to meet and speak to him at my barbershop I went to when I lived in MD! Stand up guy! NBA did him wrong! He opened the door for other players with the same beliefs as well! Let's get it!
This is a great Brother, humble man and his jump shot is still on point. Speaking from the experience of being on the opposite end of his shot. Peace and blessings!!!
Thank You For doing Chris Jackson / Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf. He was a Walking Bucket Now picture him playing in this modern NBA with the Green Light from long range.. He was truly Blackballed from the League, He Stood On His Religion... For The Record Sarunas Marciulionis was no slouch for the record He was the first NBA player I seen do the Euro step in 1989-1990 with the golden state warriors. Salute to Chris Jackson/ Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf
By far my FAVORITE episode!!! I truly respected him for his courage and beliefs!! After he was done DIRTY I fell outta love with 🏀 that still pisses me off to this day ❗️Much Respect Is Due for him❗️🙏🏼🙏🏼😎👍🏽
@9:18 Put some respect on Sarunas Marciulionis's name bruh. He is actually in the HOF but mainly for his international play. He was one of the first NBA players to consistently use the Euro-Step. Sarunas played as a 6th Man during the Run TMC era for the GS Warriors and could play defense, score, and pass. He came to the NBA late because he had commitments to the Soviet National Team. Sarunas played with HOFer Arvydas Sabonis(father of Domantas Sabonis, PF for the Pacers). He got the Gold in the 1988 Olympics and they beat the USA team. Losing in 1988, led the US to select pro players for Olympics. This was due to other teams using pro players.
THIS WAS MY FAVORITE PLAYER WHEN HE WAS IN COLLEGE AND THE NBA. I BELIEVE HE CURRY BE CURRY WAS WHAT HE IS.NO GUARD COULD MESS WITH HIM IN COLLEGE. AND I LOVE WHAT HE DOING NOW. HELPING YOUNG PLAYERS WITH THERE SKILLS. AND HE STILL GOT GAME. HE STOOD UP FOR WHAT HE BELIEVE. ONE KIND GUY.MUCH RESPECT TO HIM.
I played against him at the summer pro league in Long Beach CA back in the day while he was trying to comeback to the NBA. He was an assassin and killing us young guys😖🏀
All I can say is this was a really good, he was one of my favorite he might have steph with the shooting he played during the hand check era and when 3s wasn't huge yet. He just didn't have the same stardom as steph.
He was nowhere near the 3 pt shooter Steph was. Even with the benefit of 2 seasons when the NBA moved the 3 pt line in, he was a 35% 3 pt shooter (without those 2 seasons, he was a lousy 32% shooter). BTW, the handcheck era started with the Knicks in ‘92, and was banned in ‘94. Handchecking also didn’t have much effect at all on true star players. Mahmoud couldn’t hold Stephs jock.
My friend in College had One on One on VHS between then Chris Jackson VS Gary Payton in College. Never saw anyone make so many 3s so easily.. was a fan ever sense

I actually find that if I don't swish the ball can go in but then roll out over the rim.

I love your videos, keep doing your thing. LSU has another guard you should do a stunted growth on. Randy Livingston..✌
literal legend, great analysis on him. he had every right to stand up for what was right.
Salute to Mahmoud. I loved his character and game.
Sheesh two 50 point games as a sophomore 🤧🔥💯
Freshman
He had 55 against Georgetown too when they had Mutombo and Zo
you a legend for this one 🙌🏾
Was waiting on this sooooo much
All I can say is this was a really good, he was one of my favorite he might have steph with the shooting he played during the hand check era and when 3s wasn't huge yet. He just didn't have the same stardom as steph.
He was nowhere near the 3 pt shooter Steph was. Even with the benefit of 2 seasons when the NBA moved the 3 pt line in, he was a 35% 3 pt shooter (without those 2 seasons, he was a lousy 32% shooter). BTW, the handcheck era started with the Knicks in ‘92, and was banned in ‘94. Handchecking also didn’t have much effect at all on true star players. Mahmoud couldn’t hold Stephs jock.
I met him once in Jackson Mississippi. He's a good guy.
I'm from Jackson as well. Went to Bailey back in the late 80's
What is the name of the instrumental that you use for your Stunted Growth video homie?, it’s beautiful. 🖖🏾
My friend in College had One on One on VHS between then Chris Jackson VS Gary Payton in College. Never saw anyone make so many 3s so easily.. was a fan ever sense
