this tread was sparked from a funny post in the BMW 850 thread.

i actually went to school with Harold Miner,
who (along with rapper Mack 10) was the class of '89 @ Inglewood High School.

his varsity coach was also my drivers ed teacher (RIP coach combs!)

anyway,
i was wondering what happened to dude.

how u go from being called "baby jordan",
playing for one of the most legendary college teams (USC),
winning 2 slam dunk contests,

to disappearing into obscurity
after only 3 YEARS IN THE LEAGUE??

all you sports heads shine some light on this situation.

im an inglewood rida till i die,
and proud of the fact that reggie theus, harold miner, and paul pierce (who was a freshman when i was a senior) was cut from the cloth as me,

but gimmie your view on how someone could rise,
and fall so fast..

MichaelAngelo,
show ya skill bruh...

He lives next door to "Dwayne" from What's Happening, and across the street from the guy who played "Calvin" on 227.:D
 
Last time i seen Hardold Miner was when he was a rookie and I seen him inside a footlocker inside tha Fox hills mall ...tha nigga was hella coo...fucked up he fell off tho...still remember when he use to touch the basketball to his nose when he shot free throws..hahah

on a side note...remember that nigga Bo Kimble...when Hank Gathers died, he got like a year of fame and then that was it.

top THAT shit:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:
 
Miner eventually settled near Las Vegas, Nevada and is reportedly an active real estate investor. He is married and has one daughter. Since his retirement from basketball, he has been disinclined to give interviews or make public appearances, instead remaining private and largely inaccessible. from wiki.....damn, dude just faded (literally) away

Lonnie Baxter did a short bid for firing a gun a couple of years ago. I think he is now overseas.

Negro couldn't live up to the hype of "Baby Jordan"
All he could do was slash and jump high.
But his shot selection was fucking awful, his jumper was weak, and he didn't have half of Jordan's fighting spirit or competitiveness.

The East Coast version of Hal Miner was Felipe Lopez, who was a beast in High School and they were billing him like the next Lebron. He was OK at Saint John's, but once in the NBA - the niggas was as soft as a piece of flan.

I graduated with all those cats.

Steve Francis got traded to the Knicks and just recently back to the Rockets but he's deep in the bench since Skip To My Lou (who I played ball with when I grew up in NY!) is running a mean point and Yao/McGrady as the main offensive weapons, they don't need ball hogging Francis up in there :lol:

Lonnie was on the Wizards for a hot second after being traded from Chicago but he was deep in the bench then fucked around and caught a automatic weapon charge in 06 (He shot his Glock out his sunroof BLOCKS FROM THE FUCKING WHITEHOUSE! :lol:) then soon after caught a charge for shipping guns through Fedex and had to do some time. I think he's playing ball in Europe right now. Next stop, Car Salesman. :lol:

Terrence, I don't know.

Steve Blake's doing a decent job holding down Portland.

Juan, he got traded from Toronto to Detroit and gets no run time. :smh:

But on the low, the one person who's surprising everyone right now - WILCOX! Everyone expected him to be just ok, but he's becoming a solid roleplayer in the league. Dependable for X pts / X rebounds every night. That's the kind of shit that'll keep you in the league for a very long time!
 
OK, I got one for the BGOL CSI...who can track down Jai Lewis, Tony Skinn, and Lamar Butler from the George Mason Final Four run?

shouldn't have been a surprise. chris wilcox has the physical tools to be a solid contributor. stuck in a bad situation with coach dunleavy for a minute, but got a new lease on life with the sonics.

making lemonade all the way to the bank. good for him.

How about Scotty Thurman...from Arkansas,him and Corliss Williamson took out Puke for the NCAA title.Both came out early,Corliss had a long career in the NBA while Scotty,who I thought had big game...was never heard from again.
 
Damn, you'll find all kind of shit by following that Maryland Nighthawks link. They play in the Premier basketball league, which has some teams with some absolutely DUMBASS names (the Rochester RazorSharks? The Chicago Throwbacks? WTF?!)

Anyway
- Maryland's coach is former Syracuse beast Lawrence Moten
- Maryland's PG is that dude White Chocolate who won that Magic Johnson streetball show on MTV a few years back
- Remember that fat-ass center Ron Rollerson from Temple? He plays for Rochester
- Todd Day coaches the Arkansas Impact

I remember Felipe!!!:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:
 
I saw Harold in Coconut Grove a few times while he was with the Heat. He was driving a BMW 850 at that time also. He was a hella meek - Probably why he didnt last on the big stage. You gotta have heart and thick skin in order to deal with the public and media.

Miner's problem was he didnt 'react' fast. Once he got the ball he THOUGHT about what he was going to do and by the time he made up his mind the defense was there. He had all of us hyped when they drafted him. :hmm:
