Jamal Crawford to Stephon Marbury: 'You're the most talented player I've ever played with'

Jamal Crawford: Being in the gym over these last few months in national games- watching, listening, talking to, hearing.. There is alot wrong with AAU. BUT the PARENTS are near the top of the list. It's sickening. The delusion that exist is crazy. If we're always making excuse's for our children's behavior where it has to be someone else's fault, and we're not teaching them accountability, we're setting them up to fail. If we're always criticizing a coach or program who is given their own time to benefit YOUR child's development and well being, and that's not enough, you should coach them to give them all you want them to have. As parents we have to be better. Looking back when I played AAU, the thing I take the most pride in, is my mom or dad NEVER complained to one coach I ever played for from 8 years old on. They said "you want all the things you say you want, figure it out and go get better looking back, I wear that with pride.. -via Twitter @JCrossover / March 5, 2024

When you were growing up, did you play with trading cards? Lance Stephenson: Actually, I didn’t, but my friends did, so they used to always give me different cards. You know, I’m a basketball player and a super fan. My first couple of cards that I got were Stephon Marbury, Ray Allen, Shaquille O’Neal. I actually got the craziest card, a holographic Michael Jordan card. I wish I still had it to this day because I was so hyped. I was like ‘Ma, I got this card, Michael Jordan holographic. She’s like boy, go put them cards away.’ So yeah, I had a couple cards when I was young. -via HoopsHype / February 25, 2024
