Thoughts On "Through The Fire"

Mon Mar 13, 2006 1:19 pm

After watching it, i have a bit more respect for Sebastian. Any other thoughts?.

Mon Mar 13, 2006 1:20 pm

seems like a good show.
But why do we care about Sebastian Telfair?

What has he done with his NBA career? :|

Nothing, he even lost his starting job to Steve Blake...

Sorry if I came off as a dick in that post but really.

im not saying we should care about him, im just simply saying that after what he's been through i have gained mor respect for him. And regarding his NBA career, he's only been in the league for 2 years. Wats to say that he wont develop or blossom into a good player, not that he's a bad player right now. and BTW its not a show, its a documentary.

Where'd you see the documentary?

Mon Mar 13, 2006 2:31 pm

ESPN (Y)

Mon Mar 13, 2006 2:47 pm

It was just about the same as any other rags to riches story.

Mon Mar 13, 2006 3:12 pm

He is a good kid, I definatelly have some respect for him. But he is no superstar..

Mon Mar 13, 2006 11:51 pm

I hate him as a player (wait, Portland - let we get something straight - you passed on Chris Paul because you already have Sebastian fucking Telfair? How does that make sense? They're both the same age and Paul is like zillion years ahead of him development-wise.) and he makes himself a lot prettier in this documentary than he probably actually is. I just don't fucking trust him. Marbury connection in that sort of things. And I'll watch the film tomorrow, if everything goes as planned.

I thought the documentary was ok, but nothin special

how can u rate if he is a superstar?.. he's only in his 2nd year. Not even Kobe or KG were superstars in their 2nd years.

Tue Mar 14, 2006 12:25 am

Its supposedly very predictable and nothing special at all. I probably wouldn't like it, but I'd watch it anyway since its about basketball.

Tue Mar 14, 2006 5:45 am

I like it. He doesn't appear to be a thug, which is certainly a good sign, although I'm still bothered by the whole girlfriend's gun affair. And if they were so poor, where the hell did he get that coupe?

Kobe was an All-Star in his 2nd year :wink:

So was Lebron. I'm not sure when was Garnett's first time, but I think it was either in his third or second season. And you can bet on that Paul is gonna be one next year and he's three months older than Telfair.

Tue Mar 14, 2006 6:11 am

Also, Wade was an All-star in his second year..but he's like 23-24ish..

Tue Mar 14, 2006 8:18 am

Garnett's first appearance was in his second year aswell.

Tue Mar 14, 2006 8:20 am

He should've did what Darius Washington did and that was go to college and get noticed, then he would have a better chance of developing. Even though Washington isn't getting paid the big bucks yet, he may have a better NBA career than Telfair if he can keep up his great play in Memphis.

Tue Mar 14, 2006 8:43 am

Mann does it replay again ?
I missed it.
When I was reading Sports Illustrated and saw a lil ad on it, I jus realised I missed it yesterday.

Tue Mar 14, 2006 5:22 pm

I tihnk this would've been more interesting had it been aired last year in his rookie season, but this year it seems like it's outdated, especially seeing clips of Dwight Howard in HS

Mon Apr 03, 2006 3:48 pm

I jusrt watched this show on ESPN classic. :?


It's really ironic how comming out of highschool is truely a "lottery". It's either ur good straight from HS like bron...or you're a bust like this dude.

Funny how they showed dwight like his rival..when howard's career now is leaps and bounds better. I must admit that i feel sorry for him..but then ..he's a dumbass for not going to college. There should be a rule against peepsqueakes going pro out of highschool. They certainly need more development just cause of their size than people like garnett, mcgrady and bron. He's now enjoying a career as a mediocre player...i bet he wishes now that his ass went to college.
